Hey everyone. My rear axle seal is leaking. I was wondering if there are instructions somewhere on changing it. I haven't done one before, but am fairly mechanical...

I'm think about putting a 315/75/16 on my CUCV. It has 33s on it now. I was just wondering how it would drive with a 35. Its a little slow with the 33s. Should i go bigger than a 35? What do you guys think? I'm wanting to drive it around town and some highway too.

Thanks everyone! I'll see what i can come up with

Has anyone installed a tachometer on a CUCV? Can it be done?

Thanks for the help guys! I think I can probably figure out my problem now

What does it take to convert the truck to 12v? I'll try to get some pics up tomorrow. It is 24v it has the positive and negative post wired together... Where's the best place to get a manual on it? like i said all this is new to me...

In simple terms, what all does it take? I'm wondering if that might be the simpler and cheaper way to go....

i just got the truck today, i will look into it more in the daylight. It is for sure 24v though

i'm not real familiar with the 24v system... is there more than one alternator? i only saw one on top of the motor.

The batteries are brand new, I work for autozone...

I just traded a jeep for a Chevy K30 CUCV. I put new batteries in the truck today. It started great and ran great, but when I was driving it the light on the dash for the second battery was flashing. I parked the truck for about two hours then tried to start it, and it doesn't have enough juice...
