    Pictures from the past

    A good friend of mine shared these pictures with me the other day. "175 Mules from AZ and CA, 9 trailer parts 3-10-96" Is written on the back of one of them. No other info is available, and yes they are all long gone. There may be more pictures yet to be discovered.

    Nothing Lasts Forever——Doghead Starter Relay

    Your trouble shooting skills and your understanding on how the relay works in the start sequence got you back home. Being able to get the truck started with a screw driver shows that you understand how a 30+ year old truck works. I agree with Doghead, Failing in the safe mode kept a bad...

    It's been nearly 7 months since the last update, did you get the truck running yet? Update: OP states that due to the cold and snow, he has not been able to work on the truck.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    That's is exactly what happened. It all started with " I'll just change the IP, injectors and return lines." Next thing I remember the cab was off, and the transmission was at the re-builders. Now the engine is going to get rebuilt. A second fuel tank showed up and Auto Zone keeps sending me...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    That's a good idea. Unfortunately I don't own one. I'll just keep taking parts off until I find it. It might be on top of the spare tire.

    Well the IP is not under the engine. I looked there. Maybe it will be under the bed.

    Years of exposure to RF will do strange things to the human brain. I'm sure by the time I get to the IP the bed will be off the frame.

    Went to change out the IP and the entire front end fell off. Oh well.
