    There was a guy there with a drone too. Wonder if he will ever post anything up. I posted all 4 of my pics.

    Let me add this so it doesn't sound like I'm complaining too much. If this next rally is your first, don't feel compelled to volunteer. There is a lot to take in. If you feel something needs to be done and don't mind, knock yourself out. Other than that, sit back and enjoy the scenery. A small...

    For those folks who never attended, I suggest you do. For those folks who never volunteer, I suggest you do. It's a long weekend, surely everyone can spare one 4 hour block assisting friends and carrying the flame. Simple.tasks like refilling the hand was stations or washing dishes for one...

    Towing fifth wheel with cucv

    You should be ok on the relatively flat coast. Weight seems close to me, my truck is heavily laden with tools. At leas witb 4.10 cogs you can build up to 65-70 on thd downhills and be decent at the top of the next. Mountain hills really tax a 6.2.

    Towing fifth wheel with cucv

    Are you headed north? Overpasses will scrub off speed. Bigger hills will scub off even more. I have a CUCV with 4.10 gears and it will not maintain speed on a hill. My truck weighs 8500 and towing 3000# is a chore. 4.10 gears will help you build a hsad of steam going down hills.

    Dash Strip

    Take off the clear plastic first. The black metal bezel is held on by the same screws and likely a cojple of more is that is a CUCV cluster. It looks like the gauges migbt be secured behind that. The thing is held in with something like 9/32 bolts.

    CUCU style starting system on 12V truck.

    Going with dual alternators but need to keep A/C compressor. I have a complete set of brackets for an ambulance so I'll press those into service with 2 new Leece Neville alts like used in the "plan b " mod. At this point I see no need to have that relay in the cab.

    Dash Strip

    That's not factory so who knows. I would venture to say, remove the black panel and look behind.

    M1010 DUVAC Removal Plan "B"

    I wish I had the ability to capture similar data on mine since it has two 12V alts. I can say this, it works. I am considering using an ambulance setup along with the A/C stuff on another civy project. It is that dependable.

    I am in dire straits here. My wife insisted that I get pics of the MKT and its operations. I failed miserably. She is on her way home now so please, if some has pics, it would get me out of hot water.

    CUCU style starting system on 12V truck.

    Weighing some options here on a truck. I am considering getting a crew cab and would like to go to 24V starting. On a stock CUCV, there is that pesky relay under the dash. As most know, the truck uses 12V to energize a relay (doghead) that then connects and provides 24V. Is there any good...
