Golly, cten, there's no reason to pull them. except after maybe many. many miles. Provided a seal doesn't leak. You didn't answer my questions...

I put them on my M35A2, not for fuel mileage, but to ease the wear and tear on the front end. Works beautiful. Smoother ride and feels like I got a couple of more horses out of the motor.

If/when you bleed the system, do not pump the pedal rapidly. DOT 5 makes air bubbles, so I've been told.

>no wonder they quit making it. It's still being made, I buy Shell GL1. Thin? It's 80W-90, thin compared to some lubes, I guess. You don't want thick goo in your gear bxes.

This just caught my eye: >Easy enough to pull the outside off and see if it filled with grease. Are you referring to the front wheel drive flange? Filling the hub with grease is not packing the wheel bearings.

>I'm curious what purpose the fittings that I have serve. Which fittings, the ones on top and bottom of the knuckle? If packing grease in took away play, you have problems in there.

If you can get original metal wiper motord, go for it - Big Time! Plastic units aren't much good, and chink new stuff usually doesn't work right from the get-go.

Motor Pool used a hammer and chisel on some of the trucks I got in.

Crane Truck said it, I'll say it again, bleed the system and keep the master cylinder full. Bleed the WHOLE system. I do it by myself, but a helper is good.

The goo is probably motor oil; compressor allowing blow-by.

It only takes one tick to give you Lyme Disease... Strokes are a real taker. My wife was only forty-four and had one. After seven years at home with me, she now resides in a local nursing home. I pray that Howard recovers.

Thanks for the compliment, Jimbo. I was pretty certain that you'd be happy with the manuals and prompt delivery, matched by your promptness in the transaction. I posted Positive Feedback on eBay the other day.

I had also posted it to the mil-veh list and got the info I needed within a short time. Quite a few experienced CUCV owners there. I have a new starter on hand and was going to pull the old one, not knowing there was a relay under the dash. What amazed me was John, the counterman at my local...

The deuce is right on, but that T-Bucket really turns me on! I had one in the sixties, strictly for the drag strip, though. I still get urges to build a street roadster, probably a '33 or '34.

Fixed. Bad relay.

If this was a civilan truck, I'd know where to start looking. I don't know much about the electrics in a CUCV. My M1008 is sitting by my garage, broke again. I got in it yesterday and without thinking (I drive a Chevy Blazer a lot), I hit the starter before the wait light went out. I quickly...

Yep, you have some work to do! :)

73m819, It's sold. Joe

Peter, You're welcome. I am definitely impressed by them! Like I told you, they're fir for framing and hanging on a wall in my office. edited: fir should read fit. I make it sound like fir, as in wood, to make frames.

I have one, the only one I've ever seen. You can get it for free by going to the above posted link, or I can sell you a NOS one. Not cheap.
