    CUCV tires on a M101A1

    He has a 101A1 with the 5 lug M37 wheels, not an A2 with the 8 lug wheels. I have seen people try to use newer tires with the old rims, but you have to use tubes and flaps with them. Make sure you use tubes for radial tires if you go that route. Later, Joe

    antenna mounting bracket hardware

    I bought some from a place here local called "The Clip House" when I mounted a console in my old '79 Bronco several years back. They even sold the tool to hold them while you collapsed them into the panel. Call around your area to places that install truck equipment and do restorations. If all...

    starting problem on my m1009

    Umm, yea the shaft is supposed to come out with the pump... This is the best price, bar none, that I have found for a 6.2 Injection Pump. The pumps are the same between the J-code civilian trucks and the CUCV, so it makes no difference. I bought one for my 1009 and it was an excellent rebuild...

    starting problem on my m1009

    The check valve might be stopped up and preventing the fuel from flowing properly. Take the rubber fuel line and nipple off of the top of the injection pump, then try to look through it. If you can't see the little glass ball in it, it is gunked up and might be the cause of your problems. Spray...

    charging/alternator PROBLEMS

    The relay under the dash is a 12V Bosch relay commonly used in automotive applications. If the alternator had 13 Ohms between the case and the ground stud, then something was wrong with it. If it did not have any Ohms between the ground stud and case after he reassembled it, then the problem is...

    M35 (and other MV) Roadside Assistance list

    I'm willing to help too. I do think that the list should be maintained in some sort of secure manner to prevent unauthorized personnel from accessing it. The TDR maintained such a list and every 6 months would print a booklet with everyone's names/addresses/capabilities which was included with...

    MEP-004A parts, and problems

    The mystery wires are on FP3 in the lower left hand side. Look for TH1, which is what is supposed to be connected to those wires. It is a part of the winterization/heater kit for the unit. If the unit didn't have the kit installed, it won't be used. As far as reading the diagrams, it's like...

    Couldn’t have done it without you.

    Nice 1008, with the side racks even. Does the rest of the interior look as nice as the side of the seat? :) Later, Joe

    FOIA Request for both -13 and -23 1031 manuals

    You'd think that they'd at least do a cursory check to see if the manual was approved for public release. :cookoo: Later, Joe

    Corporate 14 for M1009

    Is the 14B from a 3/4 or 1 ton? If it's a 3/4 it should just bolt in with new (larger) ubolts. You'll also need to get a 1310/1350 conversion ujoint unless you are having a new driveshaft made. What's your plan on the front? That 14B won't have 3.08 gears so you're going to have to have the...

    M1031 SECM Generators

    I've never used Crazedlist, I use SearchTempest which searches CL out to your distance setting and Ebay. It used to be called Craigshelper, but they changed it to head off any possible legal problems with using Craigs in the name. Later, Joe

    Charging system help????

    Well, while the OP had a 1010, it was modified while in Govt service to the regular CUCV system, not the 1010 system. I would recommend pulling the plastic plugs off of the alternator and cleaning the contacts, then see what the lights are doing. From there you can check some of the other...

    waiting for the tow truck

    Did you bleed the fuel filter after changing the lift pump? Have you tried pushing it in 2Hi yet to see if the trans is locked up? Later, Joe

    Dashboard Covers and Tailgates M1009

    GM still has some factory dash pads in the system, but they're pricey. And yes, the CUCV and civvie K5 have the same tailgate. Later, Joe

    M1031 - 4L80E conversion ??s

    Well, the OD would be .5, which is a little taller than the usual .63 or .7 overdrive ratios, but with a 4.56 geared 1008 on stock 235/85R16 tires, in OD you would be pulling 1750 RPM at 70 MPH. Unfortunately I don't think you can shift the OD box in while moving, which means your acceleration...
