That is cool! A CUCV coozie!!! Never seen one of those before...i'll be looking for one now! Thanks for the .pdf and pic guys. F-522

I'm curious about the "quilted cover in the back of your truck"...military issue?...got any pictures? Thanks!

Second annual Christmas tree trip! This time the front battery jiggled loose and had a little party. Ended up falling into to the upper heater core hose, wearing a small hole and creating quite a bit of havoc. A lot of duct tape on the hose, a spare nut on the battery hold down and we were...

Muthkw25...do you have a picture or a link to the lights you are referring to? I'm curious!

I should have gotten stock in LMC...great headlights. Replacing the original wiring harness with the heavy duty version is really a good idea. Aiming wasn't too bad. The replacement screw things from a local parts store were junk...ended up using the originals after some thorough cleaning...

For what its worth, I set out on the same mission as well. After at least 3 rolls of the roofing repair stuff on the interior firewall, inside of doors, inside lining of the dash, inside of the tailgate, and installation of some interior plastic from a Junk yard Jimmy also then lined with more...

I have the same issue...have had no troubles at all but I can tell there is no afterglow occuring. With the exception of the thermistor, everything checks out. This is a great thread. The discussions regarding the GP system here are exactly why some many come to this forum. Outstanding...

My son and I actually washed the M1009. First time in several months! Been driving her two to three times a week, she's not too keen on the elevation around here but doing pretty well. Seems to smoke a little more...

I'd love to but I am taking my son camping this weekend! Keep trying, sounds like a good idea!

From many places really, most recently Orygun. It was quite a trip down here. Right during the heat wave in Northern California, Nevada and Arizona. The ole 1009 did great though...not fast but reliable. Good to meet you neighbor!

Bernalillo checking in. Arrived in town about three months ago. Glad to be here! A m1009 and a m101.

Allenhillview - Nice set up! I like the switches! Cajun - yep...nearly every time I log in here my project board gets cloudy and jumbled...But that is what makes these rigs so great!

Marcus has a very valid point. The referred to earlier is a good one too. Here is another option that has been referred to before in the CUCV forum. When I started my project I too, realized that a source of safe, reliable 12v was needed beyond the old fuse box. So, some web trolling for...

Front speakers? I installed the pre-fab kick panels from an online company that starts with a c and rhymes with hutchfield. Took some minor trimming...and Krylon's plastic paint in espresso. Installed in them are Kenwood 6.5" mid/woofers and 2" tweeters. Sounds very good, not much of a bass...

Hmm, I've been thinking over the turbo too. Read through the Diesel Pages vol 1, and keeping an eye open for a Banks unit and also the GM unit that was discussed in another thread here. So with the stock 3 speed CUCV tranny, how are the RPMs at highway speed...again, I have no plans of...

Well sir, I have to say after having this hobby for a little over two years and one of the first thing I did was a 12 volt conversion...I must say everything I wanted to do was easier afterwards. The addition of a strong and reliable "in cab" secondary 12 accessory panel was much easier (could...

My apologies if this is a dumb question...but the transmission is not my area of expertise. Here it is....if one installs the NV4500 does that allow the 6.2 to hold a highway speed on some of those longer, higher hills or allow it to drop down into a better gear to hold say 55 or 60 on those...

Well done! Clean install, good wiring work and now you have something that increases the fun of your ride! Well done!!

Could one install one of these: http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/SQUARE-D-Common-30-millimeter-Heavyduty-Selector-7A162 with wiring leading into each position with a resistor such as you described with a resister like this: http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?partnumber=003-30K If I...

Wow! Now if I could just find such a switch...You sir are a GP card Ninja!
