    CUCV Manual transmission

    The gasser and diesel bells are different. One of my friends had a gasser bell and brought it here and we put them side by side and there was a difference where the starter went. They bolt up but the starter clearance is not the same. The diesel bell housings are not hard to find. Plenty of...

    Injector pump question

    I use accurate diesel. Tim is fair and his reputation good. Expect to pay around 3-350$ for a 2829 reman. Anything less, corners are being cut or cheap parts being used. There are alot of crappy builders out there and doing a job twice sucks. I got screwed on a pump from Metro inj. I was pissed...

    TH400 auto used for plowing snow

    I plowed with my M1008(and still do, but now with NV4500) for atleast two years with no issues with the Th400. it's a good solid tranny. How long it lasts depends on how you drive it. Beat the balls off it, slam from Drive to Reverse alot and you will kill it fast. Try to push too much snow each...

    TH400 auto used for plowing snow

    I have to run with my plow just about hitting the ground and angled on the highway and my M1008 is lifted to boot. The plow blocks alot of air on the highway.

    CUCV Manual transmission

    Yes, the 208 case although never mated to an NV from the factory, fits like it was made for it. The bolt pattern is an exact 180 mirror.

    CUCV Manual transmission

    The stock 6.5 GMT400 6.5TD NV4500 bellhousing works fine. I have the earlier external slave on mine and it works fine and Dstang97 just did a 96+ internal with no modifications save the custom hydraulic line. If your cab is 85+ It will even have the imprints where the master goes. use 85-87...

    My 1984 M923 AM General maximum speed is 45 miles per hour.

    I run 60 comfortable with 14.00's. 45 definitely sounds wrong. My deuce could run 50 with 9.00s

    What are the tow hook/tie downs called on the front bumper ?

    yes, I can read. Tm-2320-211-20P page 2-134 however I have not been able to find a replacement one so I thought maybe it was referred to as something else. Sorry. I will ask these trivial questions on the FB 5 ton page next time.

    What are the tow hook/tie downs called on the front bumper ?

    Ok what do you call the part that mounts on top of the front bumper where either the clevis goes or the towbar hooks to ? This is the part bolted to the truck .

    MEP 002A no voltage help please !

    Ask a staff member to move your thread to here: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/forumdisplay.php?55-Auxiliary-Equipment There are alot of threads on this. Converting to a Flight Systems regulator seems to be the permanent fix although I will admit I am new to these as well.

    M923 250 Cummins stalled in traffic. Fuel problem ?

    I was towing an M103a3 back from New Hampshire and was stuck in traffic on I495. Was crawing along for about 20 mins when all of a sudden, the truck died. I was lucky it was downhill and I was able to coast to the shoulder. After cranking it for a bit, it started and idled but stalled again as...
