    What Is This Dashboard Sound??

    Remove the adapter assembly from the speedometer cable and the transfer case. Does the gear spin inside the adapter. Now check your transfer case oil. Is it full or nearly full? Has the nylon gear on the transfer case been chewed off? Using a 10mm wrench remove the speedometer gear housing and...

    Power steering pump bracket

    I would have the bolt stud you need as a replacement. Do you have any threads that are usable to get a stud started? Give the drill and remove tactic a try and report back. I myself just buy replacement parts from any of the local auto parts dealers. I look for the best price and the best...

    Power steering pump bracket

    I don't understand the question and which bolt you are referring to. That is not the lowest mounting bolt that I am aware of. The lower one is a stud.

    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    To day I had all good intensions. I started at 0600 AM and put tools away and pulled the Kubota up for service. I am not sure what is going on but I seem to have a swelled hydraulic filter. I am not sure what is causing that but it was the same way the last time I removed it to change the...

    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    I have this fender for at least 25 years. It is painted with CARC 686 TAN. The paint is as thick as pancake batter. The entire truck was painted the same way. I parted it out back in the day because I didn't know any better. But really I hated the paint because of the poor job that was done. It...

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    I seen that the M1009 project was about to slip to page 2 in the CUCV section. Not this time. Today I replaced the left cab mounts. I made progress and will be able to use the original rear body bolts. I have all the body mounts installed on the main body. Correction the upper body...

Good Luck. And I do have an M1008 drive shaft I would sell. It is in excellent condition but is missing the...

    CUCV M1009, What is this for?

    I am a Rick so I will reply. I never done a business with Oregon Fuel Injection. I have no opinion. I am on the east coast and they are on the west coast. I had a local business that rebuilt all my injection pumps in the early years. After 2010 they went out of business. Since I have been using...

    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    The topic always comes up. I have been using the stock A C Delco 13G glow plugs in my CUCV's for over 26 years. Never anything but these. I lie I did try some Wellman's. Bad Deal. But I just bought these from the GM dealer. Made in Germany. I have the resistors hooked up and all stock circuit...

    CUCVRUS Repair Projects

    Tonight was a busy night. Busier then usual. I wanted to complete my M1009 gate glass tracks. I put urethane adhesive in the channels. I press some TrimLok material into the tracks. It is 1/4". It fits in perfect. I clamped it a while and sent it to final paint. After an hour or so I set...

    CUCV M1009, What is this for?

    Even that Standard part is expensive. But expense is just one time and done. keep screwing with it and it will cost you more. Good Luck. My parts supplier quoted me $100. for the part. Not in Stock. I seen them available at several palaces. None were a $30. part. Good Luck.

    CUCV M1009, What is this for?

    At ne time I had a dozen new ones and gave them out not knowing they were expensive. I have a few used ones and will hang onto them for now. But they did have an inexpensive one I listed in the past. It was a Standard brand name I believe. I will look.

    Was looking for a shop in or near Milwaukee to work on M1008; then did it all myself!

    The grease fittings/zerks on a CUCV are standard thread. NOT Metric. I hope that helps. They are available just about anywhere that sell farming and automotive parts. Even hardware stores have a nice selection. Good Luck. Looks Great.

    CUCV M1009, What is this for?

    1982 Chevrolet P30 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - NGK EF0074 (stockwiseauto.com) I would throw the Scotch blocks in the trash. Thats just me. We outlawed them 25 years ago at our assembly plant. They are for temporary use only IMHO. Good Luck.

    M1009 Axle Spline / Pinion Spline Counts?

    The rear is back together and the transmission is shifting fine. All is well. Now just turn the heat down a few notches and lets get crazy. Much work needs completed.

    Was looking for a shop in or near Milwaukee to work on M1008; then did it all myself!

    Just cut the bolt and slide it in from the outside. There is no difference. It is a pin that the shackle pivots on. Sawzall. Go wild. Drill the bushings out, burn them out, cut them out. Just don't beat them out you will go nuts and be very unsafe. Good Luck. The bolts are 7/16". They have a...

    Was looking for a shop in or near Milwaukee to work on M1008; then did it all myself!

    Once again. I have. If I were to charge a customer to remove his springs to replace the bushings I would be at the price of replacement springs. Heat is all you need. They actually shoot the metal sleeve out the eye hole when they are warm. Now not blazing red hot. But that little bit of heat...
