    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    I haven't looked for one, but it's pretty simple. The lines are disconnected at the trans, you attach the can of flush to one end, put a catch basin under the other end, and let fly. When the can is empty, you're done. The flush is supposed to be compatible with trans fluid. I did this on...

    As close to 100% as it's possible to get, and a drain plug won't help you. Replace it. Jasper doesn't have a great reputation. Better to find a local rebuilder with a good reputation. Ask at your local NAPA - they often know who's good and who isn't. You can pick up some transmission...

    That looks really nice! What did that cost you?

    Hey, I call foul! This thread is about what YOU did to your CUCV! No what Comcast did to it!!! :D Wow. I realize he's got some mass on you, but with all that damage, he wasn't doing 35 mph, that's for sure. :( Sad to see. Hope you heal fast. You'll be hurting for a while. Look into...

    Oh, man! That's nasty! He must have been moving pretty fast! I've been rear-ended a few times. The worst was with me stopped, and he was doing 55. I still didn't get slammed as bad as that. Please let us know if we can do anything. As for the truck.... ah that'll buff right out! :D

    Get some new cables made at BestBoatWire. Fast service, not expensive, and great quality. I'm wouldn't recommend re-inventing the wiring. Just replace the existing relay with a better quality relay. It only draws 9 amps, so any good quality automotive relay will do. Some never have trouble...

    Well, we have a "Forum Tips and Tricks" section where you should be able to find a post on how to do that, but unfortunately, it's been overrun by a bad case of the stupids, so it's completely useless. (I know there's a post in there on that topic, but I couldn't find it for you, and I...

    That's pretty bad. Thank you for posting this, as a warning to the rest of us.

    Your M1008 is a standard Chevy pickup, just like the ones that rolled off the assembly line and went to any Chevy dealer in the U.S. It might have been blue, green, white, or whatever. The only differences are: Paint job. Weird 24/12v start/GP system. Some combat lights. A grill guard...

    WD-40 is good where you need to displace water. That's it. I don't use it for a general lubricant. There are many products that are much better. It's pathetic as a penetrating oil, too. But if you've gotten water into something? WD-40, then once it's all dried out, follow with a good...

    I had one behind the brush guard a few years ago. No eggs in it, so I just tossed it out.

    When people started giving instructions over the radio that people were expected to write down. ;) You know, back in the days when people used paper and pencil to write things down! You might remember hearing about in history class. :mrgreen:

    Hee hee! :mrgreen: I could not agree more. I have a few stories like that from my days of installing, including one very similar to Techo's. I think my favorite was the fault of a competitor. I had had a few brushes with him here and there, or rather, with his 'work'. (We were both...

    It is indeed. We have a low water bridge near me that is underwater anytime the river rises. It used to be single lane, too. You just take turns. One dark evening a young girl (19, IIRC) tried to cross during a storm. She got swept off. She managed to call 911 as the car was going under...

    This needs to go to its own thread, folks. This is NOT the place to do diagnosis. This thread is basically for chit-chat about what work we've done on our trucks. If you don't know how to post a new thread, here's the skinny: Go to the main page of the forum, then look for the big orange...
