Good catch there. That is something to keep in mind. Especially since all my hitches are 2" and I probably have 10 different styles/configurations/attachments.

Subscribed! Post up ASAP. I have been looking at ACME hitches here locally and was wanting to try out 2 or 3 to see which one fit the best. This may be a better option.

Just for clarification what I am asking is why could I not do all the bed related work and cut the rear frame behind the tandems to shorten the overall length at first. Then come in at a later date to pull out the tandem assembly, install the spring hangers and springs centered in the M105...

Anybody ever seen it done? I didn't think so, but... If a man were gonna bob a deuce, would there be any drawbacks to: 1. Remove the original bed. 2. Cut the 39" off the rear frame. 3. Mount M105 bed. 4. Finish the suspension part of the project when spring(needed spare time, front...

I like that Westach! Thanks!

I'll still take one just to get it out of your way! No charge! I'll post up in the VIN thread.

joshuaz223 - I'm sorry, but I am not following you here.

Thanks everyone! Does this information carry any significance to the way the truck may have been used or where is has been?

Recently got my first deuce from m16ty here on the board. Can anyone decode the bumper markings? 230ASG - 230SIG HO29

I have the supsension laying in the shop floor for mine. 4" front springs and a shackle flip for the rear. I also have some 6" front springs and some 2" rear if i wanna go 6". 16 x 10 black steel wheels sitting in the corner. No hurry, I'm having fun with it like it is.

I posted some updated pics this morning. Here are the updates: Holley carb is rebuilt and back on the engine. Much better! Front winch bumper finished and installed. Rear bumper finished and installed. Put some used 265 BFG's on the stock wheels.

Here are a couple burnout videos. It is running decent for a Quadrajet, but I really need to get the Holley back on it and finish tuning it to really wake it up. http://s231.photobucket.com/albums/ee110/puppyjp/CUCV/

I did it, I cut the harness down to the bare minimun, converted to 12 volt, and pulled the 6.2L out. I have no regrets. Trust me, it is alot more fun now. It will do 80 right now. After the lift and tires go on it will run faster than that if necessary. Got single chambers put on it...

BBC into CUCV, it is faster now! Updated Pics. As many of you know I recently acquired a 1984 CUCV military truck. After wrestling with the 135 HP 6.2L diesel engine and seeing my big block sitting on the stand, I decided it was time for a change. I pulled the diesel out and put the gasser in...

57,000 miles on this one. It is solid. Not a bit of rust anywhere, top or bottom.

It is a CUCV. It does have the D-ring mounts, blackout lights front and rear with switch panel, pintle, gun mounts, 1008 door tag, door jamb tag, radio delete, GM specified "military" sticker on driver inner fender, etc. Slave port is missing as is the brushguard. Seat is not original. As to...

There is no evidence of green where the paint is cracked, peeling, or missing on the exterior that I have seen. It is either white paint, gray primer, or bare metal. That is why is wanted to post here to see if you guys had any additional info. Could it have been on an airfield or something...

My guess would be 6".

I picked up an 1984 model last week. The engine and passenger compartment are the correct green, however it appears that the exterior was never painted OD, but painted white instead. Did this happen? What does that mean?
