    M1031 will not start

    Recharge the batteries. Sounds like they are low. Take the M1009 in your avatar and slave start it!

    I might have to part out a deuce, but I have questions first.

    So how much do you want for the whole truck? $500, $1000, $1500, $2000? post some photos....

    Converting cucv electrical system.

    By the way, ODIron sells a kit for adding AC to the CUCV. If your talking about an air compressor vs. AC compressor; you could probably use the same bracket. Email them and I am sure they can help.

    Converting cucv electrical system.

    Half correct. The M1010 has TWO 24v alternators. It uses what you call the "duo-vac" or DUVAC to regulate 12v from the 24v source. Mine never worked properly and there are few that did from what I have heard and read. I installed a Sure Power battery equalizer to provide a steady 12v output...

    CUCV Work Light

    You just need the NATO ends and you can wire up all sorts of 24v items to run off the slave plug.

    Select Vehicles on Hold GL WHAT?

    I don't know if it is the same for guys not in FL, but you paid $60 for a title not an SF97. If you buy a truck now (from GL), you will pay $78 (to GL) or so for a title thanks to the increase in rates from the State of FL. If you buy a truck from GSA and take the free SF97 down and apply for...

    GL Wins today 10/29 - what did you buy?

    I've been watching trucks coming out of Riley...I was tempted to buy a 818 just so I had a truck to haul my 6.2 home!

    GL Wins today 10/29 - what did you buy?

    M1009 Electrical - Ignition switch and accesories

    I've used ignition spades on the fuse box and switches (not together but for separate instances). I think I prefer the switched power for a radio so you can have it on without the truck running and without burning up the glow plugs.

    Timing Chain or Gears?

    Stock is a chain.

    m35a3 air intake on an m35a2?

    Or just the specs, 4" id/od, but what is the center line radius and the leg lengths? I found several on ebay for under $30.

    M116A3 put to work

    Ditto! Nice job! Also - the A3 trailers came with the splash guards...at least my two did.

    Lavarok has Troop Seats now!

    The truck is staying red....so once I paint them black, it will look outstanding!

    I wonder why they pulled all the m35a2s

    I emailed a few GL site managers today. I just got a reply from one in GA and his response was: "We expect the M35A2 to be released soon. No indications that they will require mutilation." Take it for what its worth...all of this is hearsay at this point...

    I wonder why they pulled all the m35a2s

    Was this an attempt at humor? I don't see how this is even remotely possible. On a side note, my interest in 5 tons is growing...

    Fuse box and voltmeter issues

    Does your wait light and water in fuel light work? If not, check your engine control fuse. I believe it also plays a role in the voltmeter working or not.

    Warner Robbins Ga. A2C's

    All I can say is once your EUC clears, RECOVER your truck quickly. Haste is waste.... What is surprising is that this actually occurred at the WR lot. The Forest Park area is unmanned, but I know you have to get access in to and out of the lot on the WR base. However, it is a big area with lots...

    Warner Robbins Ga. A2C's

    That sucks, but then again I'd like to find the a-hole that stole the door from my M35A2C that was at Forest Park...but didn't you know...theft doesn't occur at these sites...at least according to the GL reps!!!
