    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    The job is done. I had a friend that had a friend that had these marvelous tools. In 10 minutes I had all the lug studs/bolts off the VW. After that I was Fahrvegnugen. But I quickly came to my senses and recovered from that illness quickly. Take Care and have a great day. My Son is going to do...

    CUCV Radiator Replacement

    I sent you a text early this AM. I will check out the list of parts you need. The transmission cooler lines can be repaired. If they cut them at the radiator I would cut them back a few inches and use a double flair connection splice, new line and new flare nuts to attach to the radiator. I am...

    CUCV M1008 wobbling. Help needed

    GMC Ford Dodge Chevy Dana 60 70 Alignment Kingpin | McBay Performance I spoke with a freind about this years ago and he said that the wobble was not caused by caster camber adjustment but toe in and out. And also loose steering linkage. He is the man that gave me the insight to the issue and I...

    CUCV M1008 wobbling. Help needed

    As a final recommendation I would double check the steering box and make sure the frame is not cracked and the bolts on the steering box are tight. I only ever had 1 broken frame and that was on an M1009 with a snow plow and bound up front axle U joints. I used the Off Road Design weld on frame...

    1987 m1028 cucv

    I probably have all the fuel and brake lines you mentioned and have stored them for 25 years. So they are clean. Let me know if I can help. I have been using hydraulic hose run over top of the transmission for trans cooler lines. They have been on a few plow trucks and I have had no failures to...

    CUCV M1008 wobbling. Help needed

    I have encountered this on a few trucks I owned over the years. My experience has been that once you have a truck that has the issue it is fairly easy to repair. he cost is relatively less than $300. First thing is to eliminate that the tires are not causing the issue. Many times if I had a...

    Stalls Intermittently

    Strange as it may sound after all these years I never added anything to my CUCV fuel tank except diesel, heating oil and on occasion contaminated fuel from over the road trucks that drivers added DEF to the fuel. I would get it for free in a 330 gallon tote and let it sit and pump the fuel off...

    GMC Truck Vinyl Dash Pad \u003e Dash Pads (huzshop.com) Any thoughts. Looks like an economical way to fix this. Not every CUCV is deserving of a $500.+ dash pad. Just a thought.

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    It is yours. I stored it for the past 25+ years and came across it during a few searches. Over winter I am going to do more organization to my parts. It is never ending and I must follow thru putting things away as I acquire them and as I disassemble vehicles. The last parts CUCV I have is...

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    Here is a strange attachment I removed from a CUCV many years ago. It was attached at the lower ashtray bolt area and up to the dash bracket on an M1009. I just have it hanging here near the place it belongs. It is a heavy-duty anti ashtray using bracket. I don't like the smell of cigarettes...
