    Glow plug controller malfunction

    How long are you holding them on? Cold start with 10 to 15 seconds should be enough at that temp. Could be you do have some glows that are not working. With that relay goin nuts who knows how often they turn on or for how long without you knowing it. Have you checked the fuel filter yet? or...

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    Makes sense to need something to off load the tank out of the truck when you get there. Possibly a winch mounted in the bed and a ramp? ...a long ramp with those loading rollers that package systems use? Tank full shouldn't weigh much more than a thousand. Could make a tank mount similar to...

    Seems like this is turning into a build thread.

    That's a really nice looking bumper!! I will look them up and see if they do a kit style that needs welded together. Be nice to get it without the d ring mounts could pop holes in it and use the stock ones, but that's just me. Glad you're getting it done. The towing plug you disconnected has...

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    That is a nice setup! Do you have a LMTV to pull it with? I thought those trailers had some form of air brakes? Not sure. That fuel tank looks like a 200 gallon? I'd hook straps to it or mount it to a metal pallet so you can pop it in the bed of the truck you're going to pull it with. Did...

    TH400 kits for rebuilt / overhaul

    Typically I go for a bushing kit added on to the regular steels seals and friction...you don't need any stages or upgrades for this truck. That being said I do usually get the red line friction with the kolene steels...doesn't cost much more for them....for me it's just preference. I wouldn't...

    Replacement radiator?

    That's great! Finally found that thread. I use a hydraulic shop for my weird fittings most of the time. You won't find that at any hardware store. Google one in your area. If they don't then they have outlets that will. Online you'd have to search that thread in unf I think. Sent from my...

    Replacement radiator?

    Ok I'd look for a metric 1.5 thread by 12..14ish?? If the 3/8 is loose it's probably metric. The 16 thread is very close. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Replacement radiator?

    Oh, ok! I see in the Amazon add the heater core port has a bolt in it? Or is it just a plastic cap? I'd bet it's a half inch unf thread. The port for the sensor is probably 1/8 inch unf. The adapters are out there on Google, plus I use a hydraulic shop for this stuff in the past, too. Sent...

    CUCV Battery Recommendations

    I use the 6tl in all mine. I found different availability depending on where you live though. I'm not far from a decent military base and found a interstate battery dealer that has pallets of them in stock all the time. Right at 400 a pair. The post mounts for the battery hold down can be moved...

    Replacement radiator?

    That's a nice replacement! If you click more information it shows the thread sizes in the description of the part. I put one from this brand in a 58 Ford custom 300 last week. Fit perfect...was highly surprised as I figured I'd have to make it fit. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Wait light suddenly stopped working

    My truck does that. I can drive it for an hour then if it sits for about 45 minutes no glows. I put a push button in it just for that situation. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    M1009, rear battery dies

    I don't think any have the capacitor on the outside...that's strictly military for radio interference. Not needed, but you can get an extra one from the rebuild kit and put one on it if you want. Unless you're running radios you won't need it. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    M1009, rear battery dies

    Pop in the tm and find an nos original. There's a bunch out there. I think eastern surplus has them. I've got 2 but my own stash. Stay away from parts stores they'll sell the wrong stuff or junk plenty of original stuff out there. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk
