Looks like you have a very nice engine compartment. Most I get to work on are hacked up and missing parts. Nice unit.

None of the local scrappers wanted the truck because of the oil in the differentail and transmission. Other big scrap yards wanted a full title with a letterhead from the company saying it was OK to scrap. A local salvage yard took it as scrap and set it aside when I talked to him. It all worked...

No bad decks. This is a complete extrerior M1010. The inside has been altered with the bunks removed. I use it for storage. You PM me an offer and I will see if it makes my efforts worth while. I will need to hire a wrecker to load it. But I will let the price up to you.

Then why did General Motors put a wire on if it was NOT needed? Why not just let the stud open on the drivers side? I know enough to keep several CUCV's on the road. I don't know how or why about everything. I know how and why things need changed when they don't work. I just do the bull work and...

It has been a while. I have been busy with a dozen or more projects. I had a few hours and have been dragging my feet on te underside of this hood. This hood is perfect or I would not bother sanding and painting the underside. I could have undercoated it but that is the lazy way. I wanted the...

The little loader comes in real handy and saves this guys back. I saved the front frame section intact for the plow frame and new leaf springs. it also has the frame flange gussets. I put them gussets on several civilian trucks I worked on. After all the cutting and work I did come up with an...

This is how I started today. Today this must be gone. The right cab mount had the bottom washer rusted off. The bolt came out and the mount was good and strong.This is a cross cut section of the floor. That sprayed in Line X held up well. It protected this truck well. The bed was a brush in...

You must buy the entire body. I am NOT having any part in cutting it apart. I will sell it delivered if we can come to a deal. Do you have a tree/truck to drag it off the trailer? Get back to me. No hurry my schedule is full till the first week of November.

No I'm NOT OK. Please continue. Every once in a while I like to listen to a professional. I do have to ask. Why did they bother even putting the ground wire there on Gen 1? I know you have an answer. I just don't care why. It is there it worked with it and I put it back on. Good enough. Now back...

I am OK with being wrong. I just thought they put that isolated ground wire on the Gen 1 for a reason. To make both alternators interchangeable. It was there and worked for 35+ years so everytime I replace an alternater on the drivers side I make sure I put the ground wire back on. Stupid is as...

True. But to me that is opportunity knocking. I like getting filthy and fixing things. Laying on cardboard in the dirt is like icing on the cake. I had a job here this week for a non military Chevy plow truck that needed a lot of work. Needless to say when I looked it over and quoted the cost it...

There is part of the alternator that activaites the idiot light. I don't know what the part is but when I have issues I take it to an alternator shop and puts the alternator on a bench tester and either it is the alternator or not. Most times it is the alternator. I am assuming that the Autozone...

Here's a little trick that I use on many belt applications including CUCV's for 25 years of private ownership. Drive to the parts dealer. Take the belts off in the parking lot. Go in and out with each belt until you get one that fits so tight it barely fits in the fully collapsed position of the...

That will never hurt a thing. I would let it go. It looks like you have some oil leaks. Good Luck.

The scrap pile is growing again. Time to do some hauling again. My scrapping job is going well. Another few days and it will be history. That transmission was just rebuilt last year and has low mileage on it. I have other cases. Next one I need overhauled I am taking this is so they can harvest...

They make a TH400 pan with a drain plug. https://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS+Performance+Products/555/601184/10002/-1?&mrkgcl=1239&mrkgadid=3333715792&adpos=1o2&creative=330726016739&device=c&matchtype=&network=g&jegspromo=nonbrand&gc It can't get any more inexpensive than this. And I would share your...

I started working on my stripping project again today. i spent about 2 hours on it. The right fender, inner fender, right front axle 1/2 were my goal. At one time I had a hard time finding these battery brace attachment brackets. Now I have a few and doubt I will ever need them. That's the way...

https://www.thedieselpageforums.com/tdpforum/showthread.php?t=3297 I learned more on these pages about the 6.2 diesel than anywhere else. More factual and less opinionated. Hope that helps. But yes I have cleaned them out well and replaced them. I replaced when I had new and cleaned them if I...

I sent you a PM. Private Message. I can be reached at rengle523@comcast.net

I have the stock breather hose if that helps.
