    Antenna Mount nutsert tool

    Interesting ingenuity. Would be useful for if you do not have the tool but absolutely need to install a nutsert. Since it is the outside of the vehicle you should use grade 8 nutserts and bolts.

    M1009 Pioneer Kit

    I installed this Pioneer Kit in my M1009. Robbed the tools from my HMMWV kit that I don't use any more. Came brand new in the box and was originally designed for a m35. Bolted in and I think it looks stock.

    Looking for pictures of the original M1009 spare tire mount.

    Here's pictures of mine. The TM diagram is the most useful. Because I have a 33" on the spare I have to push the tire into the seat in order to close the tailgate.

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

    I restored the CUCV myself. It has taken a lot of work to get to this point. Inside radio is a prc-25 matched to a mx6707 antenna base

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

    Took my CUCV and LMTV to the Coastal Virginia Auto Show in the Virginia Beach Convention Center. They wanted military vehicles there and had us put in the lobby. Several thousand people attend this show. While I was there for a little while today a guy was talking to me about it and called my...

    AcuTemp Refrigerator

    I followed your method and I think it was successful. I'm currently running/testing it to see if it-22 C, it's currently at -5.5 C after 1.5 hours in freeze mode. I've read elsewhere that it can take 4-8 hours to get to temp. Thanks for posting this method Suprman, it's a lot easier than having...

    Installed the MIP floor mat from LMC Truck. Disappointed with the process, I think that for the money it should more form fitted than it is. You'd be better off getting something similar from your local home improvements store and cut it out yourself than buying this.

    AcuTemp Refrigerator

    Is your compressor really "on" or does the screen just say "COMP ON"? Mine says "COMP ON" all the time even though I've only heard it kick on once. I'll try your method, easier than removing the whole unit from the box to tap the other side.

    AcuTemp Refrigerator

    I guess suprman got lucky, I vacuumed it down and added freon but the compressor wont kick on. It came on for about 10 seconds then stopped. Next I'll put another piercing valve on the other side and vacuum again.

    AcuTemp Refrigerator

    I just picked one of these coolers up from the recent auction of these on govplanet. Wasn't in the picture but the refrigerant was drained and labeled on the side with a little sticker. Now I get to refill it. I have experience so I'm not super stressed about it. I contacted the manufacturer...

    CARC 383 paint sources?

    I went with the carc 383 substitute from Rapco. Once it dried it got even darker than this picture.

    How did you attach/secure the pioneer rack? It looks great there.

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

    I just had the tarp down. The overspray was already dry by the time it hit the floor so it's like dust on the concrete.

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

    Made progress repainting mine last weekend. Still have to add the camo stripes and lizard skin on the inside this weekend. It's even darker now that it has dried. Originally when the paint went on it looked like Kermit the frog.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Got the tubular brush guard on tonight. Took off the winch plate, drilled, tapped, and centered the brackets to the plate. I found out that the winch hole is not center on the plate at all. I only paid $100 for everything and I still have extra brackets it came with.
