    M1009, rear battery dies

    I'd charge up that rear battery with a slow 10 amp charge for several days then get it load tested. After that being it is the 12 volt feed is look for a draw. The somewhat common one is the alternator...can test for that very easy. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Does this heater core look bad?

    If you don't already get one of these. Only fill it up a few inches from the bottom. Get the thermostat to open. Did you put a high flow water pump on this? Can't remember. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Does this heater core look bad?

    That leak looks like mouse pee. That stuff eats everything. Can soak it in some light vinegar etc to clean it out. I use heater hose and a cheap 12 volt outdoor pump and flush them out. You'll know real quick if it flows enough or has a leak. You still having coolant issues? Sent from my...

    That part that was in the pan, any chance it's the park rod end? Kinda looks like it. That hits the rooster tail and parking pawl. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Cucv seat

    Since I have 4 of them, I hoard every part I can find. On the other end, though, the seat is not a special one for a cucv, just the color. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Dang those spring retainers look like the ones we just did...I think 3 bolts broke off too. Was a mess. I don't know how you'd install a gate by yourself plus in this heat. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Burned Up Air Compressor Motor while Running 803A

    I'm not sure, but from what I found with that compressor, it uses a 50 amp breaker. Did you have anything else hooked up to the genset with the compressor? Curious as the startup amps might be around 40 so it could be the motor didn't get enough to actually get going while under load from the...

    So the suburban tail gate will work but the helper springs are different than the blazer? Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Project Wild Weasel M1009

    Looks great!! I used some half inch pex pipe over that spring bolt to keep it from making noise. Covered it in grease. Worked great so far. I just glued the seal on the gate the other day. They make pretty nice gaskets that fit good now. I don't remember them being formed. 3m weather...

    CUCV Heaven, My build of a 1009 and 1008

    Well I know bleeding brakes isn't anything new and today I replaced the proportion valve for the brakes. It was stuck only giving brakes to the front. I found nos military ones online and got 2 valves, one for each blazer. Replacing the valve was straight forward. I started with the usual...

    Hurricane Beryl and Mep 803

    I remember sandy well...I don't live far from the beach. I'm not sure I can compare an area that is in the hurricane belt vs. new jersey that hadn't been hit by a hurricane in 100 years. The damage to the new jersey coast will obviously be obliterated vs a city in the hurricane belt should not...

    Hurricane Beryl and Mep 803

    I've been watching the over a million people without power still this morning. I'm glad you have a well and could stay cool and ok during the outage. I'm confused with the hurricane that hit the coast at a level 1 did that much damage for so many. I don't understand texas power companies and how...

    AcuTemp Refrigerator

    That one kit I posted has 2 ports you can install in this. Did yours come with the manuals? That looks like they pierced it 2x in one spot...I'd try one of those valves on the line before I'd replace the line...you can pop the pin out when you install it and hit one of those holes. It has a good...

    Fix for my horn that is stuck "ON"...

    I think if you take the relay out with a diode that's fried the horn still goes off. You don't need to unhook the battery just turn off the blackout light switch. What relay did you put in that was a 3 prong type that had a diode in it? What does the spring being to short have to do with the...

    AcuTemp Refrigerator

    Charging you'll need a basic kit to hook up with. That's easy...one can of r134a. Tough part is you'll need vacuum to charge properly. You can buy one of those too. You can take it to a shop and let them charge it but I'm not sure what an auto shop would charge plus if it leaked out you have to...
