I forgot to also say take the paperwork to the dealer and get a new key cut

I was actually bidding on it, but at the last minute, I thought I don’t need another project. And a 4mile road trip. It probably has very low miles, but that salt water does a number on the undercarriage. I had to replace the complete brake system on mine.. brakes, calipers, and the steel...

This she did. That tow bill would of be insane. Not to mention, I had about $20,000 in "toys" in the back seat. So I parking it and recovery later was not an option...pew, pew.

Well, They are a CUCV II. Made in Mexico with gas engine. Maybe that is why you have a 12 volt starter system. Do they have a "slave cable adapter on the front grille ? Are you able to "slave another 24 volt (Military) vehicle ?

Then they are not true CUCV II's. End of discussion. Show me a picture of your data plate on the drivers door.

On the injector pump, take off the top cap and turn the motor over...fuel should overflow. If not the injector pump is probably gummed up or the fuel line at the back of the pump is clogged. Maybe try removing the line on the back of the pump before the pump change. You might get lucky. My bet...

Transfer Case went out. Made the trip back to Maryland in Nov and came back Jan 15th. In North Carolina I was traveling around 75 mph when a car passed me on the right and jumped in-front of me and hit their brakes. When I hit my brakes the Transfer Case started making a grinding noise and I...

Sounds like someone replaced the 24 Volt starter with a 12 Volt one. Take pictures of how the two batteries are hooked up. Maybe they changed the battery hookup to run 12 Volts because they didn't have a 24 Volt replacement Starter.

ALL CUCV II HAVE 24 VOLT STARTERS. I took pictures of one of my single cab CUCV II’s and one of my crew cab CUCV II.

my guess and it’s only a guess is that somebody replaced your 24 V starter with a 12 V starter and maybe messed with the wiring / battery cables on the driver side battery.

The starter is 24 V not 12 V

Anyways, I’ll be heading to Florida this weekend and returning to Maryland in two weeks. Got to spend as much time as I can with my grandkids. 😊

Replaced the sway bar links ( way overdue ) Might have been one of the reasons why the front tires failed. Making U-turns puts a lot of weight on the outside tread.

Hey, it’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything. little update: I’m at my daughters place in Huntingtown, Maryland. Leaving for south Florida on Saturday night. The CUCV-II crew cab will have over 220,000 miles by Sunday. I just put new tires on the front from Costco ($628.00) 😳. The old...

Back when government liquidation had the contract before iron planet.

I’ll add some more pics

Not sure. The passenger side alternator does have a ground wire that goes to the negative side of the designated, 24 V battery on the driver side.

The alternator that is putting out 24 V has the marking stamped on the case for a 12V. The alternator has a part number stamped on the case showing 12 V, also 105 A. I will probably open up the back of the alternator to see what 24 V regulator is there so I can order a spare.

FYI: Battery voltage with the engine off for the 12 V passenger side battery is 12.74 V. With it running it’s 14.58 V. Battery voltage with the engine off for the 24 V battery on the driver side is 24.80 V. with it running it’s 29.35 V. Alternator voltage with the engine off driver side...
