I listed the CORRECT PUMP above. Accept no substitutes. This is the only one that will work. They list 2. The ABOVE IS CORRECT...
I used the AC Delco 13G and maintained the stock glow plug system in it's entirety for over 25 years. Never done any bypasses or push buttons. I maintained the system. That means if something went wrong in stock form (and it will) I found the failure and replaced with compatible parts. Even if...
I have encountered the difficult oil cooler line attachment. Not the end of the world. It needs a bit of grinding and sanding and it will fit. Trust me on that. I have encountered the same thing on OEM radiators. I have used dozens of the Spectra radiators and if I did have a problem it was not...
To I went out in the barn and gathered the remaining parts to assemble the doors. I will clean and oil the regulators. I have new ones but these still look good. It has only been 12 years since I cleaned and oiled them. The door panels still look great. They were new back when I rebuilt it in...
After our exchange this AM I was in the barn and I looked at the radiator I just had rebuilt. And I guess I was lucky. This radiator is a 4 core. But like I said you can get by with a 3 core and live happily ever after. In the picture do you see how full the tank area is in comparison to yours...
That radiator is getting ready to check out. It also appears to be a very thin cored radiator. Possibly a 2 core. Original CUVCV radiators were 4 core. And they did make replacements that are 3 core. The number of rows makes the heat exchange greater. In reality you can use a 3 core. I have used...
I have replaced a lot of Dodge/Jeep plastic tanked radiators. That is not a reflection of plastic aluminum in general. I seen the Dodge Durango plastic tanks crack and get brittle that you could crumble them. Jeep Liberty's also have poor cooling systems and every engine that Chrysler/ Jeep/...
Yes I do. I never had one fail for me in a CUCV or any of my trucks. They are in every new vehicle out there and I removed a lot of old Harrison radiators from CUCV's over the years and replaced them with Harrison aluminum plastic. General Motors discontinued the copper / brass as early as 1995...

Today I went out and located the M1028 alternator brackets. I can't post pictures in the PM so here they are. Everything as removed from the engine. I walked out to take them off and had some slight issues. I was muddy from the rain. I also had a 16mm socket instead of a 15 mm...
You buy me an Autozone gift card for a Spectra plastic aluminum one and I will exchange my freshly rebuilt copper brass one. You pay the shipping. That is how strongly I prefer the plastic aluminum radiators. I have had them in every new truck I bought for the past 25 years and do not recall any...

This one works. I have used them before. More than once. Comes with the fuel sock so I would give it a try. But stopping going down the road may be a lift pump. Check...
OK now I will discuss my findings on the latch kits I purchased from Brothers. If I were to just install the entire kits they would work 100% fine. But as much as I paid attention to detail I wanted to retain the black handles and the black outer wing vent anchors. The chrome set of handles...
By lunch time it has been a successful day here in my basement. I want to say this vent/wing window rubber job is not an easy task. I done 2 sets and I did learn that no matter if they are GM or aftermarket they fit about the same. One tip I will give is do NOT spray silicone spray on the...
Today sure did turn out to a very dreary wet day. I guess I will stay inside and work in the basement. I can reassemble the vent /wing windows. I will post pictures later of my progress. I am sure I can find enough to keep me busy. Be Safe.
Also if you do not need the tanks I could use the passenger tank as I need a good one for a damaged one.
Are you looking for an old Harrison Radiator tanks? Copper and Brass style? I will have one in a month of so. I can Sawzall off both tanks and mail them to you on your account. I don't want...
That my Friend was over 20+ years ago and that was an M1028. I actually rebuilt that entire vehicle and sold it. Of course the cab was junk. That only had about 28K miles on it and I got it running and driving before I spent any money on it. The frame was not bent and everything worked fine...
Today while working at the crusher I stripped several cars and at the end of the day a 1986 GMC 2500 2WD was carried up and set outside for me to strip next. I checked it out and it was a one owner local business truck that suffered most of the damage from exposure and being handled with a load...

I drilled the rivets out of mine ans will be using truss bolts to reassemble them. I want to pick up some silicone spray. I will post my results. Be Safe.
