    Gen 2 no charge when hot

    I made a heat shield for GEN 2 today, ran some errands, and drove home and no flickering charge light. I.R. temp gun reads 145 degrees case temp on GEN 2 at idle, and 325 degrees on the turbine housing at idle. Maybe this will do it some good.

    Hi all, I'm a new lurker here, just reading up on the CUCV pickups. Hopefully I will find a nice one somewhere, I've always had a bit of a bug in the back of my mind that I wanted one, now it's time to do something about it.

    Since when did the US use these?...........

    if it truly were military, I doubt it would have had the bright badging on the side of the doors. No need for advertisement in a tactical environment.
