Hahah well we wont say why you have never been banned.Posts dont suck they just dont make sense hahaha

Its has its advantages to jump others and run inverters to name a few.The second battery which is a constant 14 volts instead of the 12 volts from the first battery is battery for equipment seeing as how the original 12 volts actually drops when a load is put on it.Plus you just got to have...

After looking at the pictures.Looks like it was hooked up in parallel.Which would have been ok but he said it was smoking.I wonder if its still original 24 volts if so it should be wired in a series.

WARNING as stated many times by members and posted many times on the forum if you convert your CUCV to 12 volts. (NO ONE ON THE SITE CAN HELP YOU). again Good luck :]

Not to high jack a thread but im curious my lights just go out on my m1008 every once in while will the harness from LMC solve that or do i need to go a diffrent route

i run the rotella in all my gas trucks good oil.;] i run the royal purple 15w 40 in my red m1008 and so far im impressed.No serious issues it seems to run a little better and it doesnt smoke like it use to.I figure a stock m1008 running at 55mph with 456 gears needs all the help it can get.
