REDWOLF, I replaced both of my oil cooler lines last year. I purchased brand new replacements from O'Reilly. I know it sounds surprising that they would sell something like these, but they were no sht the exact fit. I don't have the O'Reilly part numbers anymore, but what I did was plugged the...
These depictions showing examples of a spin-on fuel filter with a WIF sensor are from a 1996 3500 Cummins. If you'd prefer to keep a Water In Fuel warning, maybe consider getting this part equivilent from NAPA.
I just read this entire thread, as well as the entire nearly 7-year-old Pirate4x4 thread. Very interesting, had no idea that the 1970's Canadian "Five-Quad" existed in their military. Clearly the reliability of their Five Quads paved the way for our 1980's CUCVs.
bbking, thanks for the update...

Thanks a bunch. I was actually able to locate a pair of the mounts last weekend and got them mounted back up. They are awesome, not only will they harbor my M16, but they also harbor my M1A Scout Squad, and my buddy's HK G3.

Know anyone around there with a battery load tester? If you can get your hands on a battery load tester check each battery with the truck running, and without the truck running. Load testing each battery with the engine off will tell you the condition of each battery, and load testing each...
It doesn't have to be new, it just needs to seal. I took my fuel cap into a local hose and fittings and hydraulics shop and the guy was puzzled because he had never seen the style o-ring that came on these things... Hah. Nice.
