    vehicle security

    that would be a very simple mod. The high beam switch would make a good switch for the ignition system. Im not sure how the ignition switch s wired but that does seem a very easy fix for a common problem

    GA CUCV Recovery

    if you want to keep the stock automatic system and add a manual capabilty the get the light blue wire that runs into the control card. Splice a wire to it through a momentary switch (like a starter button) and to a good ground. Works great

    GA CUCV Recovery

    sounds like a glowplug issue. if they are good (probably not) then switch to a manual system or at a minimum a kicker bypass at the control card

    vehicle security

    you could wire in a hidden toggle switch into the starter relay wiring. just mount it somewhere and flip it when you get out. I would mount it in the ashtray or in the dash with a Foglight switch label under it

    No Brakes

    I think that is a proportioning valve and doesnt have much to do with the rear brakes. When you were looking around and could you see anything leaking from the rear of the wheels. sounds like a rear wheel cylinder or line gave out.

    Followed TM still cant find problem

    I had a similar problem a few M1009's ago and it ended up being the connection at the power block beside the glowplug relay. The connection looked okay but it was just the insulation the wire itself was burned out to being nonconductive. It was still not hitting the Gen 1 Light but the current...

    Mep004a

    mep-003a is a 10kw diesel unit that is almost the same unit as the mep-002 even uses the same filters. Side by side they are identical. They operate from single or three phase and are pretty common.

    General Granite Xtreme4x4 Deuce

    if your wanting to sell it, i usually use ebay. The collector market is so widespread you have to list it on the national market

    my buddy just added a 18K warn Electric 24V winch in his and it is a much much cleaner install than a stock PTO. That sucker sucks right up to the lower radiator support and mounted nicely
