Both GPs and GP relay are Mil Spec.

Found this old thread when looking for starting problems similar to mine. When I first posted about my starter problems the GPs were suggested as the possible culprit. But since my problem started all at once and since I could not make sense of the diagnostics I thought I would start with...

Does the starter thread ever stop? I just left the extension cord trailing from the shop out to the M1008. Now waiting on UPS to bring me my mil spec GPs and GP relay. The good news is I was able to find mil spec GP relays on Ebay at a fraction of the cost for make due products at the local...

One more relay question: A few weeks ago I drove home listening to a "clunk" noise on the fire wall. The next morning SURPRISE she would not start. I just got around to putting a volt meter on it and found with the ignition off I got no reading between the orange wire terminal and ground but a...

Ready for another starting problem? I replaced the batteries on my 1987 M1008 with mil spec and had the transmission rebuilt and everything was running fine. Then it turned cold and overnight she refused to start. However unlike rsh 4364 here in central California "cold" is lows in the high...

Has anyone out there heard of "Hunter Boxes" and has anything like that been done with a CUCV?

Thanks!

Run? I'll be happy when I get mine to start. Got a new starter. Now to climb under and do the actual work. BUT incase it's the batteries just not putting out enough juice, goes anyone suggestions on where to get them in central California (I know I need to move).

Thanks for taking us with you on your trip.

Had to have my son show me how to do this.

Have picture but can't figure out how to post it on forum. I'm so old, when I was in the Army we ordered parts for the motor pool on this stuff called paper!

Thank You

Are you needing part #6 in the diagram? THAT'S IT!!! (And now I have to look up that TM as well)

I have one rear clamp for my rear troop seats but need to buy a second. Any ideas or sources?

Just took off my rear troop seats to start repairs and paint. Q: What part of a country ton do they weigh?

I don't need tires just yet (my M1008 isn't deadlined just yet) but what size tires? On another SS thread I read about changing tire size to increase your top end speed. Any one want to comment pros and cons?

Has anyone figured out that half of what we do for our CUCV's any given day is reading these threads to figure out what we are going to do or not do in the future?

Looks like I need to find some extra trailer bows to take a closer look. With the bed of the M1008 being a little longer I may have to run some horizontal pieces at the top corners and center to add more structure and keep the netting from sagging. Now to find a trailer or two...

Retired in California after 15 years of service and soon to bug out to Az, or Tx,

Can you enlighten me about the bows your netting is attached to. I would like to do something similar on my M1008
