    Super single or duals?

    Exactly this! 1200r20s in dual configuration actually have higher load capacity and more ground contact area than a single 395. This is what you need in the wrecker application. 1200r20 = 30,440 lb tire rating per axle, when dualled, and a footprint of 360² in 395/85R20 = 20,400 lb tire...

    How to Jump Start CUCV

    Issue is glow plugs. They pull a lot of juice. If it's a normal start, then you can put one on each BATTERY, on its respective positive and negative terminals, and do NOT use a ground point (although, technically you could use ground for front battery).

    Vacuum line sizes and locations

    I searched and didn't find anything on the sizes of the lines. I searched through the TMs, and cross referenced them to GM part numbers and got the sizes. Hopefully this will make things easier for those having vacuum issues.

    Pic request - Singled 1200R20 with flipped hubs

    Yeah. Especially with the box I'm looking at putting on it. I might just have to do duals. I'm curious what the experience is of people running 1100s or 1200s singled out vs dual 1100s or 900s re: drivability, turning, MPG, acceleration (LOL!), etc.

    Did you notice any changes in MPG, tire wear, acceleration, turning ability, etc?

    Pic request - Singled 1200R20 with flipped hubs

    Debating on dual 1200s, or singled 1200s with hub flip. Help me make my decision. Single rating is 8200lbs, so still well within the weight handling capacity, even singled out.

    CUCV Air Compressor engine mounting brackets

    All found in the -20p... Which, funny enough, don't have the bracket part numbers... Must be classified... :ROFLMAO:

    CUCV Air Compressor engine mounting brackets

    CUCVs didn't come with compressors, except the M1010, and you'll get a lot of confused replies. Probably just easier to ask for the compressor bracket for the M1010. To answer your question, you can find the part number in the TM. -10, -20(p), -34(p) are what you want...

    Other Ojjsdfg

    Might be state related. Hagerty added towing for my M934, but I had to pay for it...I think it was an extra $150/yr. A friend had Hagerty and they towed his deuce... on a rollback.. Probably violated half a dozen laws in the process.. height, weight, you name it.

    Making a deuce a reliable daily driver? Help make a to-do list?

    Tenative plan, is to ditch the primary fuel filter, and replace with an inline 100 micron reusable filter, then switch the factory secondary fuel setup into 2 spin ons using the 4770 base. I haven't decided if I'm gonna do a parallel setup with 2 micron filters, or a series setup with 10 micron...
