    Oh well, guess the CP and RT will be right next to Porta-John.

    Tire carrier

    I think.the Dexter axle would be a benefit in a bunch of ways. I've towed a ton of M105s with a Chevy truck and my old suburban and they always tow real nice.

    Most of it. Still have HR218 to fall back on.

    Well executed Sir. They are quite a bargain for sure. Wish the 101 series was such a bargain. The only problem with the 105 is it's like dragging a pallet of anvils.

    Funny story about that. When I sold my job, they wanted all their stuff back. Go figure! Goodbye hellcat, hello Massey Ferguson.

    I only have one gold bar and I already sent it to you. Want the tracking number?

    2016 Ga Military Vehicle Rally buy/sell/trade thread

    So, I know this is early but since moving has me mostly disheveled, I need reminders about anything I'm bringing for other folks. Odds are extremely high that if you don't remind me, it won't be there.

    M1008 wont start

    Check out the helpful threads stickies for the one with fusible links. They often burn as a result of a starter run on. Likely, that will turn up the issue. Good luck.

    Welcome from N GA. Normally, I would criticize you for modding if if I paid for it but since I didn't, there isn't a darned thing I can say.

    ODIron door hinge bushing update

    The original plans were correct for the bushings that he used. The McMaster Carr bushings are not the ones used in the kits he offered. For those folks who still have the kits, use the sizes indicated for a proper fit.

    Putting a Deuce bed on an M813 ?

    Even a tunnel box commonly seen on commercial wreckers would work nicely. Lots of wonderful possibilities lye there.

    Testing the forum

    Did the power go out? Someone forget to pay the light bill?

    A lot has changed since the power went out but I wouldn't mind converting my ambulance into a family truckster.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    I had one on an M1028 and it worked quite well. Truck was not a dually. Downfall was it eliminated just about all articulation. I really would like to put one on the ambulance but to this date I have not and am now looking to move it to a new owner.

    I will be there Tuesday mid day. Need to get the registration tent up and running by Wed AM. Cabin is booked Tues thru Sat.

    Big ugly truck

    If an axle swap isn't in the budget, is a replacement 10 bolt? The rear may suffer. Here is what I would do. Since you already have 4.10 gears, shop for a suburban 14 bolt. They are usually less that $200 and bolt right in. As long as the gears match the front, its no big deal. Just a thought...

    For all we know, they could have moved around the signs and numbers too. At some point the pre rally recon mission will determine all the surprised that await us.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Almost every 2WD dually had that sway bar. Keep looking for trucks being parted or ebay. There is a guy out west (ebay) who has sold a couple for around $200 delivered.

    1985 CUCV M1009 "The Colonel"

    Awesome. Welcome to CUCV ownership. Hot start issues often hinge on temp sensors for the glowplug curcuit or injection pump issues. Looks to be a nice example there.
