Im gonna try using the original artic kit water crossover with this: http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=PRS%2D1053&autoview=sku (damn expensive part). I think this tstat water outlet should clear the belts (hopefully). Id probly have to find or make a custom upper radiator hose...
if ya droped in a 6.5 engine with the newer smaller style altenators and kept the wiring setup stock (dual 100amp alts 12/24v ). Can a newer altenator be easily setup by a local alternator shop to have an isolated ground to work with the system?
the kits still not installed also im short the dash braket that the controls mount to. If i ever figure how to fix the issue with a serpentine/artic upgrade ill post the part numbers.
t-stat crossover & artic kit

Someone on ebay built this custom roll cage in his cucv looked pretty cool. Seems that the sun visors might not have room to move with the mod though. Heres the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Military-M1008-CUCV-Troop-Carrier_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ80765QQihZ006QQitemZ160047579124QQrdZ1
Nice M1009. I flat towed my M1008 the same way bolted to the shackle bars. towed fine the whole 200 miles from jersey using the ball style hitch so it didnt bang at all.
Hmmm not 100% sure Ive heard its around 16mpg with 36"s. How does Alfa Heaven bolt on 36" tires without a lift or fender trimming? I didnt think anything over 33" would fit.
