    cucv headlight recomendations

    Ditto on the Sylvania Silverstars. I bought them recently and do not regret it. I recall an earlier post by someone who tested the lighting output of the Sylvania's versus the stockers using some photography light meters and found that the 35% increase in output as claimed by Sylvania was...

    86 m1009 trans line help needed

    I bought an M1008 from GL with a hole in one of the trans lines that ran under the inspection cover. It looked as if a forklift pinched it and broke it. I went to the auto parts store and bought a compression fitting (I forget the size now) that I installed and never looked back. It never leaked.

    Brackets in the CUCV

    I believe those brackets hold a decontamination kit/station in the rear part of the vehicle and a contamination detector at the passenger's feet.

    Glad I could help.

    wipers park at the top of the windshield.

    Is it possible the motor was removed when it wasn't parked and wasn't in the proper park position when it was bolted in? The wipers may have been installed in the wrong orientation, due to the motor not actually being parked above the cowl panel when you put it in. Those wipers go on any number...

    84 m1008 fuel guage

    I'm not sure if this will help you, but the fuel gauge on my M1009 started acting funny and after a week or so it read past full and never moved. I checked the TM's and disconnected the sending unit pink wire, then the ground strap. I then substituted a used, but working fuel gauge in the...

    TH400 Cracked Bellhousing

    The program that Cornrichard is referring to is Extreme 4x4 on Spike TV, that usually runs on Saturday and Sunday mornings. I think the aftermarket bellhousing was from Summit Racing or Jegs and was a very interesting product.

    What is the correct operating temp?

    The HMMWV temperature gauge and sender I installed in my M1009 never goes above 160.

    radiator leak by low coolant sensor

    You could try to remove the sensor and put some teflon tape around the threads. Maybe you will get lucky and the leak will be gone.

    How many temp sensors/switches on '09

    The coolant temp sensor for the idiot light is located in the front of the driver's side head, right behind the alternator (one wire). The glowplug controller and high idle advance use the coolant sensor located near the rear of the passenger side head, close to the firewall (two wires). The way...

    HMMWV water temp gauge retrofit in a M1009?

    I installed a HMMWV water temperature gauge in my M1009. It is green and I think it goes nicely with the subdued nature of the truck. I searched eBay and found a water temperature sending unit for a HMMWV as well. It fit perfectly in the hole vacated by the idiot light sensor on the front of the...

    Front Output Shaft Seal Leak after replacement

    That is a tough one. The only thing I can think of is the possibilty that the inner lip of the seal became inverted upon installation of the yoke or there must be a small tear in the rubber, thereby compromising the seal with the yoke.

    How far in, Front yoke-rear driveshaft

    You describe exactly how it appears on my M1009. A little more than 50% goes into the transfer case.
