    RT-524 and intercom control question.

    My 09' also has this setup on the dash. You should not hear yourself speak when transmitting; you need to get someone else with a radio that has the same frequency range to do a good comms check. You do not need the whole VIC system unless you want your passengers to wear headsets and be able...

    confused

    The reason I put that block in is because I wired a three position cigarette lighter outlet in the rear of the truck, also I have a PA that was wired improperly when I got the truck.

    confused

    I got the fuse box at the local auto zone. The box does not get grounded, you attach your hot from the accessory and then ground the accessory separately.

    confused

    That is exactly where I am taking 12v power from as well. Here is my fuse panel setup. I apologize for the quality, had to do it from photobucket and the original picture was too large.

    confused

    I did a take off from the 12v post on the firewall and put a small fuse panel by the under dash fuse panel for the truck. From there I can install any 12v accessories. I will try to post a picture later, as I am not home at the moment.

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

    Took out my 09' today, put fuel in it and drove to the local 4 wheel parts; unfortunately they didn't have the smitty build seat covers in stock so I have to order them :(

    Deuce lights on a M1008

    Very nice, what a difference between them and the headlights.

    M1010 ready for ALASKA

    Curious about your hitch setup, is it permenantly in the way or can you remove it and still use the steps?

    what size trailer for m1009

    Probably don't want to go any larger than an M101. Otherwise a jeep trailer of some sort would be fine.

    Might be the IP. Possibly the check valve going into the top of the IP.

    Good deal, sounds like your weekends are full for the foreseeable future.

    Nice scare on the freeway...now what happened?

    My 1009 runs well at 70; it always scares me if I go over, but I have done so with no issues thus far.

    24volt CUCV engine swapped into 12volt 1983 Suburban 6.2

    I would convert the engine to 12v. It will be a lot less of a headache. ETA: why are you swapping out?

    M1010 is running

    Looking good

    Wires for horn on m1009 ?

    I still need to procure a horn as some knuckle head in the line before me completely removed the horn. Although my relay works, I can hear it click when I instinctively try to beep at non-driving morons.

    How accurate is your fuel gauge?

    I don't trust the fuel gauge in my 1009, I keep a log book in my phone and update it every time I put fuel in it.

    New m1009 Floors via extreeme liner

    That is meant to protect wires for antenna and power cables when radios are installed.

    Tools on the road

    If AAA in your area will authorize same days service thats awesome. From my experience where I live they do not do so. I guess it just goes by regions.

    Tools on the road

    EDPDX is correct for the most part, except only on rare occasions will AAA authorize same day service for a new membership.

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

    If he's removing I'm sure it's easier. We just used a ratchet strap and tankers bar to install them. I'm pretty sure that no matter what you do it's going to be a pain I the ass.
