    CV10516 CUCV Door Number / Reg Number Decoding?

    Is this a K5 type CUCV? That seems to me to be a standard issue GM model number for the platform. GM has most-always used a 5 digit model number for their internal cataloging system. Each body, chassis, drive, and GVW series had a specific number not unlike a VIN which was a US standardized...

    Surge Brake ID

    Directly from Mendenhall Industries. The owner hooked me up! Unfortunately, the braking/coupler tongue assembly on a 1101/1103 is from a different manufacturer as I understand. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Surge Brake ID

    Good call on the idea, I'm getting ready to do the very same thing to my 101A3. Parts sourced from the manufacturer directly. If you're unable to find the exact part you want, I've seen many have torched off the Lunette and welded the channel in its place. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    A short search of eBay popped up a couple offerings of the same nomenclature. Looks like more common to the Humvee models than the CUCV variants. Would you share some pics of yours installed? Anyone have one on a CUCV that's complete from its pre-surplus days? Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Power steering issue on a gas converted m1028.

    Perhaps there may be air trapped in the system. I would try to cycle the steering from lock to lock with the axle on jackstands. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    M116A3 - First Overland Trailer Build!

    I'm in an identical situation with a similar setup. We got our M101A3 to accompany my wife's Traverse in lieu of the SUV and pickup she had. It provided a substantial increase in usability with a lower operating cost. Our trailer pulls slightly nose-down behind all of our vehicles. If we were...

    Fuel inlet retention device (fuel cap)

    FYI, saw a 1008/1028 filler neck assy listed on the flea bay earlier today by sheer coincidence.

    M1008 cracked head gaskets, runs fine, fix? Or engine swap?

    I love threads like this...just as many opinions as there are options and influences are only compromised by budgets. I forsee a waterfall of information in the days to come! @Kishmael07 many techs may have only theory about a diagnosis based on observation until it comes down to actually...

    The box and frame are the same IIRC, they just widned the axle and adjusted the fenderwells accordingly. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    M116A3 - First Overland Trailer Build!

    The body is also mostly aluminum, giving more cargo capacity making the GVWR within negligible difference. All the trailers in this category (101A1/2/3, 105, 1101/2) have pros & cons against each other. The data placard rating has been shown multiple times to be grossly underrated for the...

    M116A3 - First Overland Trailer Build!

    I'm partial to the M101/116A2/3 chassis as they interface with my fleet effortlessly. Many remove/refit the tongue and axle assys of these type trailers to better fit a commercial resemblance in favor of electric brakes, longer tongues, and lug patterns that match their tow vehicle. Many gripe...
