    Intermittently dying during deceleration ????

    Check all the other stuff, but you are both probably going to be doing IP swaps to fix the problems. They are 26 plus years old by now. Things do wear out.

    M105A2 24v to 12v conv.. Need help...

    Does this mean you don't want the military plug/cable for the front of the trailer? I can come by Monday afternoon and pick it up. Seriously, welcome to the site. There are a half dozen or so Aggies here. I am '90. There are also about 20 people who are addicted to these silly green machines...

    Intermittently dying during deceleration ????

    What happens when you are going down the road at say 70MPH and you let off the throttle? When you get back in, does it do nothing for a few seconds and then give full power again? A just changed out the IP on a M1010 for a fellow SS'er who had a truck doing exactly as I described. Problems...

    Help narrowing down a 6.2 knock?

    Check your torque converter bolts and flywheel bolts too! They sometimes only make noise when under a load at low speeds.

    m1008 tranny added 7.3 quarts still not filled up?

    Same here. The three th400's I have pulled the pan on in the last year all took 2 gallons or a hair less to fill back up.

    USA Number Explaination

    That article is part of the CD MVM is selling for $25 or so. Not trying to advertise for them, but that CD is well worth the money in my opinion.

    Storm Chasing

    If you want it to drive like a modern vehicle, buy a modern vehicle, swap in the running gear from a modern vehicle or just live with what you have. The 6.2 does not like to rev. So, tall gears were used to make the 1009 go highway speeds. That was 55 mph then. That is also why the truck...

    recalibrate speedometer?

    Don't forget the 1009 will need the speedo reduction box removed if you are just plugging in numbers to find the gears.

    Injector Pump replacement

    The crank shaft will have to be turned from the bottom with a large breaker bar, a mirror really helps to see the three bolts you need to remove and if you have a magnetic socket. Now is the time to use it.

    thread postings not showing on main SS thread listing..?

    Yes, that gets you every post for the past 24 hours. The "New Post" link at the upper right of every page gets you every post that has happened since you were last on the site according to the site. which is not always the same as the last time you were here.

    Bed removal options

    I use 55 gallon drums, wooden fence post and a hi lift jack. Here is my drop side after removal a few years ago. Oh, I prefer to use an engine hoist at each end or a chain hoist at each corner. However, concrete floors and strong overheads are not always available.

    thread postings not showing on main SS thread listing..?

    That thread showed up for me under both "new post" and on the 24 hour listing. Maybe you didn't refresh when you looked?

    M1009 a/c

    If you are trying to figure out what it is. My first thought was evaporator/fan/plenum from a full size van of about the same vintage as the CUCV. Show us under the hood as requested above and maybe we can narrow it down some. Pretty much you have an experimental system that we will only be...

    m1009 injector issue

    Don't go gorilla tight with it either. The line will crack if crushed. While using your 3/4" open end to tighten the injector hard line, make sure the injector isn't moving as well. If it is, loosen the hard line, tighten the injector up and then tighten the line up. Don't forget that the...

    So, what's the deal with trailer prices? My weekend rant.

    If only 2000 of them were made, Brent Mullins must have cornered the market. He had them for sale outside his place for years. He must have moved dozens if not hundreds. Of course, he stopped selling them about the time I wanted to get one.

    So, what's the deal with trailer prices? My weekend rant.

    The Canadian 101 is the same as the US M416. Except, it has more handles and tie down points. Basically, if it is hooked to a vehicle. Two people can grab the handles and move it with ease. Makes backing into tight places nice.

    M101 vs M105 Trailer

    Kwai and I towed a M101 behind a M109 600 miles one day a few years ago. They follow great. You can't tell it is there unless the early morning or early evening shadows are just right though.
