Hey all!
Name is Jeff and just wanted to introduce myself to everyone.
I spent several years in the Army (SOCOM Ft Bragg) during the 80's where I fell in love with the CUCV. I never tired of driving them! The jeep may have been the workhorse of the Army, but the CUCV was the stallion.
I bought my first M1009 back in 2000 and sold it to move to Vegas last year. Still regret it
inspired by Jim Newton, I plan on converting a Suburban to a CUCV I like the space the burbs have to offer, especially for families.
Anyway, I'll be hanging around. I'm not a mechanic, so I won't be able to offer much, but I do have one tip I learned from our Motor Pool Sgt.
Because military paint is porous, moisture will soak through to metal over time and begin the rust process. We used to spray a light dusting of furniture wax over the vehicles every so often. Worked like a charm! The water would bead!
