    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? I learned the hard way that the fender wells from a 1009 are in fact NOT the exact same as a 1028.

    86 M1028 on the way

    I took the batteries in to get tested and they were shot so I picked up 2 Energizer group 31 950 CCA for $109 each. Put them in and it fired right up! I also changed the oil and cleaned up the battery trays and fender wells from the 1009 so I can install them tomorrow. None of the lights...

    TB 750-761 manual?

    Well, I didn't think so...but after some more digging I found that they put a nice handy reference in the back of the TM that notates all of the manuals referred to in the document. Imagine that! :-) It's called "Use of Antifreeze Solutions and Cleaning Compounds in Engine Cooling Systems"...

    TB 750-761 manual?

    I was looking through the -20 and in the "Cooling System Servicing" section is says "For Cleaning, refer to TB 750-761". I haven't been able to come across this manual. Anybody see it before?

    Creative concealment holsters for M1008/1028

    Does anybody have any creative ways to mount a handgun concealed in a 1008/1028? I've seen some holsters that hang over the edge of the seat but I'm not sure I like it. Just curious if anybody has done anything interesting. Of course pictures are encouraged!

    Pretty sure I need new batteries...

    I got my M1028 today from GL and someone had left the blackout light switch on so the batteries were completely drained. They have a 2010 date on the so I was hoping they will still be good. I took them out and charged each of them individually and re-installed. I turned the key and the...
