Hey Jack Lope, what was the outcome of your problem? What fixed it? I am having the exact same problem with my M1008 and need to get it fixed. Thanks man!

Antennaclimber, I noticed that your new cards on your website are GPD-3.1. What is the difference in these and the GPD-2B & 2C cards? Will you still be able to hook up a back up manual switch if you want? I've been having some electrical trouble and have been thinking of going with a manual...

Wish I could send you my M1008, David.

I thought some of you may be interested in this. I've been having water leak into the cab of my M1008 through the kick panel air vents. They probably haven't been changed since 85 so I ordered some new seals and air vent doors from LMC Truck and they worked out pretty good. I wasn't able to...

I bought mine from Steve Gill in Tipton County. It was a great experience and as a guy buying his first MV with ZERO mechanic skills, Steve was really patient in answering all 146 questions I asked! Real happy with my purchase.

Ordered one today!

Thanks for all the good advice guys. I can't wait to get her going. Rustystud and royalflush55, I gave my son the option of replacing the interior in black or the red that the cucv's come with. He chose the red to keep it as original as possible! I was so proud, haha! Replacing the fuel filter...

Thanks for the help!

I want to go ahead and replace both of my alternators. What are the correct alternator part numbers for both the driver side and passenger side alternators? Where is the best place to buy them? I still have the unchanged 24volt/12 volt system. Thank you!

Thanks for all the advice guys! Finding this forum is one of the things that helped my decision to go ahead and buy this truck. The combined knowledge and support this forum provides is incredible. I haven't looked yet but I hope to find a collectors club to join so I can meet up with other...

Hey guys, I just bought my first military vehicle. After years of wanting one, I finally bought an M1008. It looks great but after sitting for almost 3 years, I have a lot of "kinks" to work. Seems like once one thing is fixed, another issue pops up. But once everything is finally done, Ill be...
