Thanks for all the great advice guys. I got it fixed. turned out the issue was the ground wire to the turn signal socket was lose and even though I changed the bulb I didn't notice the ground wire was actually disconnected. Got it all working now.
So its a headlight ground?
I also have the issue of the right turn light always on in the dash if I turn on the head lights. Sounds like you are saying there is a ground missing from one of the head light sockets and this is what is causing the running lights not to work on the passenger...
So, problem is this. On both sides the turn signal lights and the side turn signal light flash when I use the turn indicator but the passengers side signal lights don't light up when I turn on the head lights. The driver side lights up when I turn on the head lights, just not the passenger...
What's a fair price for one of these? Does this sort of trailer have a M number designation? so you could use one for a welder or a generator, anything else?
Hello,
I was wondering what the concensus is on sources for light bulbs to replace the bulbs on the CUCV, turn signal lights, head lights, etc...
What is the best place to get them?
Thanks,

So remaining question is: What is the best recommendation to get a replacement blinker switch?

So if you want to keep the truck in a collectible condition you do need to go with one of the three colors the General has suggested. He knows what he is talking about when it comes to military colors. If you want to try and civilian-ize it then the choices you are presenting will work...
Hi All,
I just bought a m1008 and when I had it delivered it didn't run. So I bought some new batteries, checked all the fluids and was happy to find that it started right up. So far after airing up the tires and taking her for a spin I was surprised at a few things. Having never driven one...
Hi all,
I am a new owner of a 1972 deuce AM Gen. I love it. It starts right up so long as its over 20 degrees f.
Anyhow, my question is. If I drive my deuce around or take it on a trip and it breaks down then I feel rather toasted. Since its 24 volt I won't be getting a jump start from...
Greetings all,
I recently won my first auction, it was for an m1008. Whether or not it runs is unknown. I live in Salt Lake, Utah and need to get it up here from Barstow, California. I think I will have to rent a truck and a flat bed trailer to put it on since I don't have a truck worthy for...
Hello,
I am sort of new to the MV world and have a deuce. I would like to obtain a tow bar. It looks like one is supposed to be mountable right on the bumper. Anyone know where I can get one on the cheap? I am located in Utah.
Thanks,
Max
