    m1009 govdeals recovery

    Good deal. I grew up just north of there. Many of the local Sheriff's offices had these for just that reason... Hunting dope in the woods after it was spotted from the air. Hit up under that beast with some jasco prep and then the rustoleom and you will be good to go. Salt load is pretty low...

    Oil analysis from CUCV Here is a oil analysis sample like you would get from your truck. I have ran several on all my vehicles... I have also ran a sample from the transmission. I have removed my original due to 'personal info' posted.

    oil sampler valve

    I have only seen these on the 1028 series but think they may have been on the 1031s. I get regular samples ran by black stone labs. CUCV included. I will get on computer later and see if I can attach one. These lab analysis can really tell you a lot about a diesel engine or even a transmission...

    Dodge CUCV- not a 880

    Here are pics I took of our 'junk yard' at the forest service... full of full tracks (113's?) Someone at the office had a thing for getting these 'free toys'... had the plan to use them during major fire incidents. I need to get some of these on the other forums. Don't know if these are still up...

    Dodge CUCV- not a 880

    I think we put the flat bed on it off of another truck that went to state auction. When I first saw it it was a camo cab and chassis.

    Dodge CUCV- not a 880

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately? - Part 1

    KM2's Great tire! They make them in the 285/75 and my FAVORITE on the CUCV 255/85.... 3cm's narrower, but about 1.5cm's taller... and the 255 is normally cheaper. Good tire and I plan buy them when my current 255/85 mud dawgs die.... won't be long. and kudos for sending pics
