Don't know why I did not post it sooner - but you inspired me to put it up and share with others!!!:beer: I also added a link to my CUCV "Project Milverado" in my signature block if you would like to see some of my other mods.

Reclining Seat Mod from a (82-92) Camaro/Firebird donor Stock CUCV Seat 82-92 Camaro/Firebird Reclining Seat Mechanism (a direct bolt in swap w/ 3 bolts) Comparison of stock vs recliner mechanism Reclining Mechanism installed Might be worth a sticky or permanent place for...

Reese Brand I swapped from a 88 Blazer. Notched to clear the pintle hitch bracket/support:

Its a picture in the first link: You have to pull the B/O light wires from the harness connector going into the bulkhead on the engine side: Note: This is a Civilian dash harness installed, Tilt Column with Intermittent wipers and Civilian wiper motor so it could be different if staying all...

Yes, I posted this in #3690 - three posts up see: http://48cj2a.com/images/cucv/battery/rhbattery2.JPG

You will need a pulse wiper motor as well. I did this mod on mine last year. Had a parts truck 87 crew cab and swapped motors and the pump inside the washer jug, also swapped to the washers on the wiper arms at the same time...see my swap pics here: http://48cj2a.com/cucv.htm Here's my whole...

If you pickup the Civy Battery Mount and the Cixy Aux Battery Mount you could do this...here's mine...(will also require relocating overflow jug or using a Civy overflow jug http://48cj2a.com/images/cucv/battery/rhbattery.JPG http://48cj2a.com/images/cucv/battery/rhbattery2.JPG...

Nice work! Look forward to how you mod the bumper.

Pulled the 2" receiver hitch from a donor Blazer I bought last fall but will need to modify in order to keep the pintle hitch. Made a template out of card board and traced onto the receiver brackets. Notched the bracket with a cut off wheel and trial fit for clearance. Spent the remainder of...

Diff covers should be pretty easy to find - its just a 14 bolt GM Corporate axle found on 3/4 ton and 1 ton GM trucks, vans 2wd and 4wd had them from the 73 thru the late 80s minimum. Hillbilly Wizard on here probably has them cheap if you don't want to seach the yard.

Civy rear seat is the same. I know of people that have added a second back row in the suburbans that did not have the 3rd seat option so should be no different than just relocating the the mounts further back but make sure you reinforce the floor area underside for safety so you don't rip the...

If you do not use the cluster housing and all the mounting tabs for the scews are all good I may be interested in the housing. The one I bought is broken.

dstang97 - I grew up driving GM trucks and always liked the factory gauge clusters from the early years up to present. For no more than what it would have added to the initial cost I think they should have been there stock in the CUCVs just like all the other Mil trucks like the M35s and...

is the heater blend door open to the cab? There is a common plastic piece that breaks on the interior side of the blend door linkage.

Yes the pickup tail gates fit and the mounting locations are already there for the hinge pivot mounts. You just need all the pick up hardware.

One thing to note on the Big Truck style Tach that I posted the pic of...you loose the warning/info lamps in the window at the base of the fuel gauge for the (left) Seat Belt Indicator Light and (right) Brake Warning System Light because the little fuel gauge now takes up that space. (not that...

Here you go...pictures I kept from an ad I found on eBay for reference, I do not have any or know a source.

The Factory GM Tachs have their own harness and do not use the printed circuit overlay on the back. The Tach Cluster housing is also different and does not have the provisions for the fuel gauge prongs that snap in the cluster and tap into the overlay. I think you would have to cut the housing...

I had purchased a donor truck for a replacement 6.2 Jcode engine. The truck had the factory gauges so I swapped the cab harnesses and meticulously traced the wiring to put the blackout circuit back in the civy harness. I lined the inner cluster with 3m aluminum tape and upgraded to red LED...
