The toasted terminal is the brown wire. Looks good but the terminal is not. Following the brown wire, it is connected to a single terminal which looks good. I think over the years of using the heater all the time, dust, corrosion, moisture in the air etc prob caused a poor connection which over...

For about a year, my heater switch kept cutting in and out. A good tap on the dash usually got it working again. But now it is totally shot. I pulled out the switch and wiring and found the positive terminal connections were toasted and the wire was hot to the touch. Looking at the wiring...

Awesome! That would be great!

The worst time the heater switches decide to break is this time of the year… 😔 Does anyone have a good climate controls switch panel they could sell me?

I had a random guy ask me if I still have my Np208 32 Spline Input Shaft and was willing to pay almost anything for it! So I searched the web and sure enough… You can’t find one! Zero! All sold out! SOOO, just so yal know… I can honestly see a NP208 32 spline CORE go to at least $600! And just...

A thought just occurred to me… If you are worried about restrictive air flow, why not install a 6.5 filter indicator on the steel 6.2 filter air box to determine if you really need to spend the time and money doing modifications? I’ve never seen anyone doing this, so you would get the honors of...

Back when I had a non turbo 6.2 in my M1009, I had every mod or tried every mod imaginable to get as much power out of the 6.2 without installing a turbo. I added dual 3” stainless exhaust, advanced the timing on the injection pump which allowed more fuel, added an Oem civilian cold air pipe...

My 6.5 has much more power and torque then a 6.2. The 6.5 does not have the fuel economy that the 6.2 has. There are many factors that are in play with mpg. 1. I have a 5 1/2” lift kit that creates more wind resistance. 2. I have 37” MTR tires that takes more power (Fuel) to get the wheels...

Do not install an ARB snorkel to your 6.2 or 6.5 TURBO diesel. The outlet is only 3” wide and does not give enough air flow to the motor, that is if you have a turbo. After installing the filter indicator after the filter on my motor, I have learned that the snorkel starves the motor of...

Here are the stats from this weekends 760 mile round trip. 50mph @ 1500rpm 55mph @1700 rpm 60mph @1800 rpm 65mph @1900 rpm 70mph @2100 rpm 75mph @2250 rpm 80mph @2350 rpm 85mph @2500 rpm (Not towing hauling ass 70-80mph average range 650-900 degrees 9 psi boost) First fill up 15 gal...

Heck yeah! I have not heard about electric socks. They work good? I usually just wear a nylon socks under a pair of wool socks and that usually keeps the feet warm and dry.

When it gets super cold, -10 threw -30 f, I remove the 4x 13mm nuts that hold the fan on and take the fan off. Doing this helps. Just gotta keep your eyes constantly on the temp gauge. I also wear a -30f jump suit with boots as seen in the pic.

This weekend I am going to take it on a nice 700 mile run as a Maiden Voyage with the new motor, trans and t case. I will report back the stats and mpg. I’ll haul butt on the way there and do a 65 mph way back towing a 2000 pound pop up camper which is going to be the next off road camper build.

The snorkel pre filter arrived. Also got the beadlocks off and slapped the new tires on the old aluminum rims.

It sold for $19,150… :-(

You were right on! I busted open all 5 bead locks and here’s what I found… The dyna beads were sticking to even the smallest amount of moisture inside the tire. I believe the best result would be not to use soapy water or PB Blaster to install the PVC insert into the tire. I had cleaned the...

I have a cold advance switch, radiator needs swapped and thermostat needs done here soon. Will have to drain the coolant. Will be a perfect time to experiment and report back how it works.

If no one has done one of these recirculating coolant heaters on their CUCV, I’ll do one and do a write up on it! I think this would be a much better solution to warming the motor and radiator at the same time with only one unit.

Hyperinflation has already hit a few countries. Gallon of milk is going for $20!

Yeah! Nada says it worth only $10,000 tops if it was mint condition and fully loaded. Wtf is up with these crazy prices? Inflation or everyone thinks their junk is gold?
