    What are you guys paying?

    '86 M1028A2 pulling nearly 10k loaded weight 5th wheel. It does just fine and is very stable. The only negatives are 50mph and no AC, but I'm not in a hurry and have experience with sweat. Lol Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    I know a few cucv owners that "rotate" batteries when they do an oil change. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    I need to rewire headlights. Mine light up the road like a pair of votive candles. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    I Bought My First CUCV; a 1984 M1009

    Yep, looks like it needs too much work for you to keep. Recommend you give her to me. [emoji2] Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    This is why I keep a spare filter in the truck box...with tools...and belts...and other random parts. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    In Tennessee it's a Darwin Award thing. I've seen downright ugly vehicles that were safe and many that looked good, but should have been black flagged. I don't believe a "state inspection" has much to do with safety. I know a school bus company that used to put all new parts on a bus to pass the...

    First modification I made to my '86 1028A2 was the addition of an additional transmission cooler mounted behind the radiator. No issues in 3 years/10k miles mostly towing a 5th wheel camper. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    84 M1009 Blackout lights only 24v?

    Blackouts lights are in the bumper. Only one blackout drive light is in the grill on the left side. The grill opening on the right is for the 24v NATO slave port used to jump start vehicles. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    A couple teenagers set it deliberately. I'm sure they didn't think it would go that far, but their lives a forever changed. Thirteen deaths and staggering dollars damage and lives disrupted. Somebody should have gotten those young fellas an old green truck and some tools. Sent from my SCH-I545...

    Long bolts and wide washers to spread the load. Marine sealant sounds good. I was going to mention RV sealants. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    Top Speed for unmodified CUCV?

    Yeah...The horn. I was one of three allowed to drive the old "cornbinder" fire engine way back when. It used to have synchronesh in 2-5. Actually fourth was still pretty good, but that's not much help. And really, the brakes only failed about every other month and then, of course, at precious...

    Top Speed for unmodified CUCV?

    Non-synchro... That brings back memories. The same kind of memories as "single plane" brake systems. Brakes adjust speed. Gear selection is used to control speed. The real trick is anticipating what's coming up so you don't have to change your speed when you get there because you're already...
