Are you leaving transfer case in truck or taking out?

We also take the excavator bucket off to lose weight. And by taking bucket off gives more lifting ability by being closer to the knuckle where the bucket was. And height advantage, up close to the machine where it has max ability to lift.

Using a backhoe as a lifting, excavating machine is what the machine is designed for. The mechanical advantage is limited by the weight of the machine and the lever to which when extended is reduced by distance of the center pivot point. The farther you are away the less amount of weight that...

Is that your current Home, coachgeo? If you are now "living" in the newest acquisition, are you going with a new interior color? :carnac:

Looks real good. How long have you had on your setup? Has the pulley size being smaller changed the gage reading at all?

The CUCV Sticky will be CUCV Helpful Threads

The fuse box at the bulkhead has inside a black gunk that is suppose to act like a weather proof coating, keep water from corroding the contact surfaces. If you have checked the power wire all the way to the bulkhead connector, fuse box, and have power to there then no power inside the cab in...

Yes be concerned for children because of the development of their bodies. Do not breath or in ingest. No need to bow to my experience, but I worked for a lead abatement contractor and if you do it by legal federal standards well you paint over it to encapsulate it. Or for removal you use a...

Indeed this will be Good. I can not wait to see how much equipment still exists in Europe and other theaters. And to see that it rusts somewhere else is sorrowful. Someone's loss is someone else's gain, hopefully the parts and vehicles are used somehow besides scrap. :tank:

Welcome to Steel Soldiers! Lots of reading ahead, and be patient. The CUCV Stickies are very helpful as well. Good Luck!

I do see the process being talked about. I responded to joels post about clutch linings being salvaged. And I posted about time involved and labor used as an economic perspective. Brakes are easier to access :shrugs:than replacing a clutch assembly. And seen that posters were doing well at...

Thanks for taking the time to Care about another Traveler. I always thought that there is no way to pull,drag, hook onto the aluminum rims without destroying them. They are really pretty handy to strap to and recover all types of vehicles.

A lot of sage advice posted. My 1008A1 starts better than my civi truck. And I maintain both well, overkill. Really if I plan to use the 82' truck and it is below 10 to 15 degrees I will plug in block heater on civi truck. In the winter I use 10w30 Shell Rotella motor oil. I believe that the...

Welcome to Steel Soldiers! NEH3116, What is it that you are trying to accomplish? I have one that was on a CUCV lower hose. It worked fine for an alternate location as simp5782 has posted. Are you doing a transplant into another vehicle? How about pictures, have any of the 3116?

Yep, there was a guy yesterday asking.

I am going with the same thoughts as ColdWarrior. If the movie is going to be a remake, new concept or whatever lets wait till we can see the final outcome. I myself want to see a positive result no matter the storyline. When I was a youngin growing up, X15 was for me just awesome. Space...

Welcome from Missouri! :tank:

I have used 9x16 Super Swamper TSL's on older Power Wagons in the past with great off road use. On the hard road they will not last long. Soft compound will scrub away in no time. New 9x16 NDT's are still made. And I have seen NDT's on CL now and then.

Yah W/W :clinto:

edpdx, has the truck been smoking blue, white, or black smoke?
