Bought a engine oil cooler from Derale performance, got tired of the OEM oil cooler lines leaking and trying to find the right parts that are not made china! had a hard time looking for the right place to mount it. But i need to wire up the thermostat and it should be good to go!

took the 1009 out to stretch her legs and see how the 700r4 does, We had a little cucv convoy up to glennville for lunch. Only problem was marcs 1009 battery hold down top lost the bolts and the + battery cable tried to melt through the metal. All in all, a good day. The tranny didnt skip a...

Update on the 700r4.............RUNNING GREAT!!!!!!!!!! need to get the 33,s on her. Now if i can just remember to keep my foot out of it i might get my feul milage back. by the way any one need a th400 with trans case just 29,000 miles on it but it needs the valve body cleaned up!

Got the solargizer on, just need to clean up the wiring. And got the 700r4 in the cucv. MAN what a difference! I can now cruise the freeway and not have to worry about IEDing the motor. I,ll see about posting some pics of it.:driver:rofl

picked up a 700r4/transcase from a 84 6.2 civy blazer. should be a easy swap!

Well i,m going to start taking a sm465/205 combo out of a donner 76 blazer and do a transplant in the mil. blazer. Nothing wrong with the auto trany but after taking it up into the mountians the 465 will do better than the auto. as soon as the auto is out i,m going to sell it if anyone is...

Not crazy about them now. i would rather have rancho 9000:-)

pro-comp 4 inch lift. steel braided brake lines. still have the 31" tires, soon to get the 33,s

Got the green bugger back from the shop. Had them put on a pro-comp 4" lift with 52" springs in back and longer brake lines. seem to ride a little stiffer than stock but not to bad! and yes i will post pics in the morning! [thumbzup]

well i was going to replace the engine oil cooler lines. and noticed radiator fluid comming from the back of the engine block. the passenger side of the valley is wet with radiator fluid so now i have to replace the head gaskets aua But i love this CUCV!

Had the rebuilt alt. tested, still bad. Makes me think all they did was clean it up. but a 108 amp is only $99 at the parts store. Thinking i might flip the bill for that one!:?

Ok so the #2 alt. went bad pulled both off to get rebuilt. put them both on the 09 today started it back up and no problems! until i took it for a drive, as soon as i got to about 45 mph the gen #2 lite came on (dim) and the charge droped. as soon as the alt cools it charges again until it warms...

pulled out both alternators today the #2 went bad and decided to get them both rebuilt. And change out the old fuel filter(bad air leak after replacing it) With a spin on filter( it was free off a 85 6.2 diesel blazer):beer:

Repacked the front bearings today. The hubs still run hot. are they supposed to do that?

Finally got by bridge plate on.(just need to change the "C" for a "D" for my call sign)

The M-RAP or the sign! becouse i would love to get my M-RAP back!:lol:

Wish i could have taken the one off of my M-RAP from Iraq!:-P

It just felt right!

Offically gave the new fuel filter the bird! ordering the racor 400 series fuel filter:razz:

Changed the glow plugs to 60g, not much of a difference. then i made the mistake of changing the fuel filter that was at 10:00 its now 1:00 and still after trying to charge the filter there is still no fuel in it! and the cucv had a brand new lift pump put on it 500 miles ago. Hopefully some...
