    VIN differences between M1008 and M1028?

    RE: VIN I was going to answer ONTOS66's MV Insurance in NJ post, but I think I will put it here since it adds to this one. I have two more links on decoding the VIN number. https://73-87.com/7387info/8187vin.htm http://clubs.hemmings.com/clubsites/chevylist/tech/vin/decode_modern_vin.htm so...

    A quick picture question.

    RE: picture I highly recommend infraview. You can look at any image format then save it to any other format and resize and resample it at the same time. And it is free. http://www.irfanview.com/

    EUC for M1009...Whats up?

    You agree to send in an EUC if any item is changed when you buy anything from GL. They do it all of the time. All they can do is ban you from buying anything else and they have done that to. My question is do they always make it retroactive or not? The below is clipped from the Terms and...

    EUC for M1009...Whats up?

    I just bought two and had to turn in an EUC. I sent it in on 7-2 and it took them until today (7-10) to send it on to the feds. My big question is, if it has been reclassified to B/Q do they have to go back and get EUCs on all of the ones sold in the past or do they have a choice in whether or...

    24 volt trailer lights

    This subject has been debated on the MV mailing list several times also. You might want to check their archives also. It used to be cost prohibitive because each light was something like $100, but now I see on the link above that you can get them for $25 each. I wonder what the DOT police...

    Impact screwdriver, the one you hit with a hammer as you hold it. http://autorepair.about.com/library/images/bl255a-lib.htm

    Sad accident and taking people along in the deuce

    It appears from the translation that the truck suddenly pulled to the left when they crested the hill and the woman driver didn't have the straight to pull it back. I really haven't found the M35 to be any harder to steer than any other non power steering vehicle. My real question, is it...

    recommended tools?

    Spray everything with your favorite penetrating oil once a day for a few days. Using a wire wheel to knock the rust off then spray will speed it up some.

    Sad accident and taking people along in the deuce

    Anybody care to comment on this? I really haven't off roaded with mine much. Is this common? I think the rest just violates common sense.

    Sad accident and taking people along in the deuce

    First, my condolences to those affected. While it is true all sports have a death rate, I would like to know more details of the accident. I thought 2.5 tons were pretty safe and were hard to turn over. Only through understanding what went wrong can others perhaps prevent it from happening again.

    Jumping procedure

    RE: Jumping I have used the pin from my class IV receiver hitch in the nato slave plug instead of a big screwdriver as listed above. The hitch pins are a perfect fit and are shorter. You might want to pick one up and keep with your jumper cables even if you don't have a receiver hitch.

    RE: I am here!!! You missed the radio instillation kits for the CUCV I have at table N9. It has been a good show. I plan to take more pictures tomorrow. http://1plant4u.smugmug.com/gallery/3078625#167968161

    Demil B & Q Sales Ending??

    I got one today also. I also got an email that two CUCV (M1009's) I just won were DEMIL B/Q and needed an EUC. I am almost sure they didn't have a red flag in their description but they have already deleted the listing. I have it saved at home but I am in Little Rock at the convention. Did...

    EUC for a M105A2???

    Well, I stand corrected. I was just looking at some trailers at a site I follow and low and behold all of the trailers need an EUC. M105's and 101A1 and A2's. I just won 2 M1009s (CUCV's) and the email saying I won them says they need an EUC. I am almost sure it didn't list it as being B/Q...

    Just bought a M1028 and having one starting problem

    As to the original post. Most of the threads I have read about the fuel pressure switch seem to indicate that it takes time for the leaking switch to cause problems. So it would be the reverse of your situation. But it is a cheep easy fix you might try before you rebuild your pump. I just...

    Just bought a M1028 and having one starting problem

    WD-40 no longer has propane as a propellant so it won't work. Either is only contraindicated with working glow plugs. I would only use it in an emergency. I have used both either and silicon spray with good results. A little bit of either goes a long way and you can damage your engine with it.

    wanted tailgate and seats

    I am looking for military. Thanks for the offer but I am afraid shipping on two seats would run as much or more than what they are worth.

    Got my STE/ICE from Ziggy0!!

    I just went to LOGSA to double check, it is distribution code C. The Tm number is TM 9-4910-571-34&P . The -12&P is distribution code B. The public can only download code A stuff. You can download the calibration manual, which I did. You can buy restricted manuals on ebay all the time and...

    Can i ask for a BIG favor.....

    RE: wearther AC60g plugs should work. There is some discussion that they have a different resistance than the original AC13 plugs, but they are self limiting and I haven't had any trouble with mine. You could always bypass the resister and hook up to the 12Volt buss that is just above the...
