    If you put a 24 v alternator in a CUCV you will need a battery equalizer because of the 12 volt load the truck has.

    deuce power steering kit

    For the record, only two lots sold for less than 9. I would guesstimate the average to be about $9500 before fees and taxes.

    deuce power steering kit

    http://web.govliquidation.com/auction/view_photo?eventId=3972&lotNumber=1580&picNumber=1 19 pictures in all, 5 of just the cylinder. Surprisingly, they deleted the first ones which showed the whole kit.

    deuce power steering kit

    Anybody notice that the pictures got updated? Not much question what is in the kit now. I wonder why they did that?:wink: The dust is starting to clear and they did almost bring $10000, in fact at least one lot did. One lucky guy got his for $8200.

    The easiest way to tell 1009 axles from 1008 is the number of lug bolts. The 1008 will have 8 and 16 inch rims. I wouldn't say that a 1009 screams at 55 but then I have a M1010 also. Just to be sure that you know, the service drive light switch has to be set to on for the brake lights to...

    Total destruction of all End-Use items (end of trucks???)

    Yes, we got an answer of sorts. The short version is, the government caught people exporting F14 parts to Iran, got upset and made a big to do over it. They came up with IC codes to determines the validity of the DEMIL code. Ninety nine percent of the stuff we want to collect was given a IC3...

    cucv2

    Not that I know of. They come up for sell every once in a while. I have seen one on GL last year. I think someone on the list bought it. A dealership had several a couple of years ago. They were selling them as program cars. A guy at the Dayton MVPA show had one of those. Michael : photos...

    Legal bumper height?

    According to the secretary of state police, if you drive a deuce in IL you are subject to arrest. If I had been told that I would be more than a little worried. I hope there was a miscommunication when he spoke with the secretary of state police. A deuce does not have a GVWR over 26000 or any...

    doing that funky charging thing

    If you know you have two good alternators and the belts aren't loose then it has to be in the wiring. I don't understand the rest of what you are trying to say.

    Legal bumper height?

    It doesn't have a weight on it. You have the only deuce I have ever heard of that is registered at over 26000. This thread is really interesting. I used to think that CA was the only one that required a CDL and even that has been debated to death in other threads. Now I learn that ND can...

    Legal bumper height?

    A deuce is under 26000 pounds. This is the first time I have ever heard of any state using frame to floor height to classify a vehicle as commercial or not. Is this a new law? Also just being classified as commercial vehicle doesn't automatically mean you need a CDL. You have to be over...

    Electric Wiper Install?

    I read a post here saying the instructions had been posted here somewhere. I took a set off a truck before i sold it and it was pretty straight forward. I noticed that they had removed a good bit of the air system including the control valve. The electric wipers are a kit. All deuces had air...

    Legal bumper height?

    How did a bumper height question turn into a lot of states require a CDL to drive a deuce? I have never heard anyone say a deuce needed a CDL except in CA and even that is open to some debate.

    19-Feb-09 Redstone Recovery trip

    If you are going in at gate 1 be sure to look for Martin Road. There is no exit sign for gate one if you are going south on Memorial parkway. The turn for gate 4 is just north of wal mart.
