Just reach out to John at Hillbilly Wizard and get an authentic CUCV OEM accelerator cable. Hillbilly Wizard Home Page Or on Ebay. I just looked and there is one on there. Search "CUCV Accelerator Cable". Hope this helps.

The third digit of that area code is 8.

You can take a small die grinder and remove the outer lip of the spinning rivnuts and then simply push it inwards to expose the hole. Then just install a new Rivnut in the same hole. So easy a Cave Man can do it.

Most everyone here on SS freely shares information for the purpose of assisting other SS members, as evidenced by the five responses to your original question. Yeah, there are a few freeloaders, but it seems all forums have those folks lurking in the shadows. If you have the expertise to...

Because I removed the OEM resistor bank on the firewall to prevent a cascading glow plug failure event.

No disrespect meant to the OP, but there's no doubt in my mind the issue is caused by a defective pump. Your original 2829 pump is worn out and the seals in your 36-year-old "NOS" 1989 pump are dried-out and shot. Nobody wants to spend several hundred dollars for a pump rebuild, and will dance...

Here is a fresh photo of my relay. I had previously removed the glow plug resistor and can't remember if that procedure required any of the wires to be moved. Hope this helps.

The Supercharger intake is an aluminum casting that bolts to the rear of the blower and turns towards the fresh air opening in the core support on the passenger side. I'm using an inline air filter which attaches to the casting, and a flexible duct from the air filter to the fresh air opening...

Got all the ancillary systems completed on the driver's side of the new drivetrain prior to re-installing the inner & outer fenders next week.

Today I was finalizing small tasks around the engine compartment prior to re-installing the inner & outer fenders next week. I fabricated & installed an aluminum post bracket & clamp to hold the new accelerator cable away from the Spinner centrifugal oil filter, as well as to maintain the cable...

Guys, by now we've probably scared the OP to death. The reference about sending the kidney probably finished him off. Y'all might have noticed that he hasn't re-posted beyond his original post. I regret having to subject a potential new CUCV owner to such stark comments, but the harsh reality...

Just couldn't resist. Got the Hawkers ordered through my company. Saved approximately $206 under the cost of the same battery with an Odyssey label.

Vanaisa, the OP indicated that he wanted a M1008 for a Daily Driver and to pull 12-16 foot cargo trailers. That is entirely different than your situation with your M1009. You indicated that you put 23,600 miles on your vehicle in 8 years. Hmmm.... that means that you are averaging...

I've had the bushing kit for so long I can't remember which one I got. It's been years...........
