The two I received are not official “government contract” models per say. As mentioned above, they were trial extras that were painted different for other customers. Green one is slightly different color than official 383 green and the brown/primer one was a trial for someone else. Brown one is...

The handles were shipped USPS and were very well packaged with each handle wrapped in cardboard. Definitely worth the money. I feel like I’ve completed a quest since I’ve been looking for these correct, brand new levers for so long. Now to buy more.

New brake levers arrived today. Now I can assemble the new cables and handles and finally put the drums and wheels back on.

More pics. Edit: The green is the current version

New levers arrived. He sent the two different color ones at a much discounted rate. I can paint them no sweat! He told me these were laying around shop and they didn’t want to bother painting them. They do come with all new hardware! That was a nice surprise. The primer/brownish lever looks to...

Go to the Technical Manual section of this site and see if there’s a TM for your heater. Download it for free and follow the troubleshooting instructions. I don’t own one of those so I’m no help.

Your very close to Ft. Hood. (I lived in Marble Falls for a while). Watch the GP auctions and one will turn up there at some point, as I’ve seen some in the background of pictures of other auction items. Yes Prices are going up steadily on CUCVs. Unmolested stock ones are getting harder...

Looks like the lake filled up before the engine rebuild was completed.

Your correct. We just had a massive ice storm in October that had us on generator for almost 6 days. Didn’t drive the CUCV then either.

Brushed off the snow and started it. First time it’s ran in a week or so. Fired right up. This is a lot of snow for Oklahoma. I know, it’s a dusting for you guys up north.

If you own a CUCV, you had better start learning to work on it yourself or have really deep pockets of cash to pay a mechanic. As already mentioned, learning to work on these is fun and a necessity. Plenty of guys here that know these CUCVs extremely well and will help you navigate the...

Buy a different Truck. One that was actually designed for what you’re requiring. CUCVs were never meant for power. Sticker on my 1987 M1008A1 engine says 155hp. Bone stock. It does everything I ask if it. But I also know it’s NOT a Duramax, Cummins or whatever Turbocharged engine and treat...

Lots of parts arrived but work and weather are slowing progress significantly. New Shocks were installed. Of course two different sizes of mounting studs Had to modify new lower bushings with center bushing sleeve from old shock. It looks and will perform fine, just didn’t expect different...

Perfect Thanks for the info

This is for the brake cables?

WOW!! Ok I feel a lot better now about the price for the M101 levers

I’ve seen them on a few surplus trailers on GP but could never find any info on them. I’ve never seen any for sale. Guyfang spotted the cage number on one recent pic from another thread and looked them up and posted info. I took that info and ran with it. We now have a source for the...

The picture shows new levers in different colors. The left one is the current production lever. Other two were for different customers and are obviously non-standard colors. These do not include the pulley and its hardware as I previously thought. That’s ok since I can use the hardware from...

Backing them up is a nightmare.......for me anyway. Had one for a while. Almost brand new. Very heavy trailer. My former M925A2 did fine with it, just slower. The 10” extension is a military upgrade to the length as the original length tended to have the trailer strike truck in tight...

I will find out for sure when they arrive.
