    What engine is this

    You must look into the Humvee -34 to look at the parts. The cucv never had a 6.5 in it from the factory.

    M1009 license plate mount

    I just fabricated one this weekend. I had planned to post pics when I got it put on the truck. Basically it mounts to the bolt that holds the top of the pintle plate to the bumper. On the other side I put on a door bumper to keep from having metal to metal contact if it got pushed back. I did...

    Hello from Michigan

    You probably have a M135 or M211 like you said. The engine is probably an engine from a M35 gasser. They are Reo gas engines. Like you stated, the M135 used a GMC engine. The date of manufacture would not be 72 They only made the M135 series in the 50's. Welcome to the forum.

    Need pickup near Salem OH of a lightbar

    Anyone near Damascus or Salem OH? I need a 52 inch emergency light bar picked up and sent out at the UPS store. Any help would be appreciated. Mapquest had it near Toledo but I found out it is not near as close as I thought. If anyone could pickup that is going to the Findley show that would be...

    HMMWV A2 Project

    Nice work. I hope I can start posting pics of the M151 restore soon. I am just about done with the cucv for now. I got the thing registered today.

    09 Findlay rally parts

    Thanks for my delivery Gimp. Stretch should post the pics of Lane's trailer dumping the 4bt out the back. That was funny and I am sorry I missed it.

    WHY is my CUCV PINK?

    Pink is a very effective color for the desert. Don't know if that had anything to do with it.

    Inside Door numbers

    Bumper numbers change from time to time while the reg number was fixed unless the truck was disposed of or transferred to another branch of service.

    ether bottle - quick start

    One more thing, spraying Ether into the intake is not a precision operation. The quick start system provided a metered amount of fluid. Just enough to get the thing fired. It is actually quite a small amount actually used.

    ether bottle - quick start

    I am bidding on your auctions trying to help you pay for that canister.

    ballast resistor

    To go a little further, the front battery could be down just enough to cause the thing not to start or you rear battery could be bad while the front it good. In these cases the glow plugs might get enough juice from the week batteries to get the glow plugs hot enough but like doghead said, if...

    Tan CARC part number

    Here is something I do to keep the paint from skinning. I use it with the carc and I still have a can I opened a month ago. No skin at all. The trick I use is to put some Argon gas into the can when I am done before I close up the can. It displaces the air with the moisture in it. I am also very...

    Tan CARC part number

    Here is a thread I did with instructions for all three types of carc. The MIL- number tells you what type of CARC you are working with. Here are the three types of carc. MIL-C-46168 Coating, Aliphatic Polyurethane, Chemical Agent Resistant, Two Component [Cancelled 17 Aug 2005] (This is...

    Tan CARC part number

    Jones, You are confusing two different products. The single component is activated by mosture in the air and this is what you are thinking of. It is still a solvent based paint but the moisture in the air activates it. What he is talking about is the newest stuff that is not solvent based. It...

    Tan CARC part number

    There is only one Carc Tan that I have ever seen. Carc is only available in Black, green, brown, and tan as far as I have ever seen. I take that back. I see there is aircraft black and green also. The number for tan listed in the second link is the one you want to ask for. It should come in 5...

    ballast resistor

    First it is not a ballast resistor. Ballast resistors are for ignition systems on regular gas cars and mostly used on Chrysler products. Your resistor is to drop the voltage from 24 volts to 12 volts for the glow plugs. Why do you think it is bad? What are your symptoms? There is no master list...

    M103 Bows and Canvas

    Yes. All steel and they do not break down so shipping is out of the question unless they are cut and welded back together by you later.

    You should clarify. Do you need a M1008 or a M1009 drive shaft?
