This is the BEST freakin thread on this site. Read it and drool!! CUCV Build... Here We Go Again... :beer:

Amazing build. Absolutely amazing. Whats the deal with the number placard on the front bumper?

Good tip man, my speedo scratches and I was gonna buy a new one, now Im gonna try your idea. Thanks.

Dodge made the M880, didn't do so well though.

****!! That is gorgeous!! Where did you get all the interior parts? That is beautiful.

Chevy79K5 - Are you running stock wheels? If not, what size wheels are you running?

You can also use a quart of ATF in your engine if you get water in the oil. Not sure why but the mix of ATF burns out the water. Then of course you should figure out how the water got there in the first place!! [thumbzup]

Rod, just curious why you chose the #6 cylinder line to crack? Would it change anything if you chose a different line?

I tried the back pressure trick but that didn't work either. Im at a loss because now that the weather warmed up, I have no way of troubleshooting the system. Thank you gentlemen for all the suggestions.

Nicely spoken Milbikes.

Nice.....Post pics soon!!!

And I did open the fuel filter drain and had plenty of fuel. Im at a loss!!

I thought the same thing about the bad fuel / gelled fuel but I have 28 trucks and only 6 had the problem.

I LOVE drive throughs!!!! Smoke them Burger King Girls out!!

How do I know for sure that the glow plug tip got down to the piston?

I haven't been able to retrieve anything yet but by the time I get around to pull it, it looks like its been jacked up for awhile. The engine runs a little rough at start up but it knock horribly. More so than the other 28 Diesel trucks I have.

Looking for some help. Ive got an 85 M1008 and I keep having to replace the 3rd glow plug in on the driver side. I have replace it 3 time is in 3 months. The other seven are good to go but that one breaks off in a matter of 30 days or less. I have been through the 2nd and 3rd manuals and cruised...

I had a fleet of M1009s and M1008s in Japan in the mid 90s and before the Marine Corps did away with the CUCs, we started using alot of HMMWV parts because it was becoming difficult to get the CUC parts through our supply system. Tranny pans were one of the common swaps we performed.

Let us know how that works out please, Im looking at modding my guages as well. Thanks.

Using regular Diesel from the local Cirlce K. Glow plugs and controller are fine, put my foot through the floorboard. Nothing. When the trucks didnt start, i traced the fuel lines. All was good going into the pump but nothing coming out. Then for ****s and kicks, tried to start them again...
