Definitely not stock.
Has the axle been replaced also?
Too bad.
The surge brake system works great when properly maintained.
Edit.
Looks like a Bulldog or similar jack with snap ring mount will work.
A good trailer or farm store will have some to match up.
Those items when fixed should definitely make a difference.
I still recommend using a fuel system cleaner like SeaFoam.
Will keep your entire fuel system happy.
Looks like the tailgate will close just fine if it were reinstalled.
Any plans to do that?
I see the license plate attached to shelter so I assume not.

Yours should eventually clear up.

Was just trying to help people know what can be done with it.
Post away!
I replaced all 3 belts today.
Set lasted 3 1/2 years.
Gates Brand.
With license plate info I can easily find out....
Full name and any aliases
Spouse name and info
Children information
Current home address
Past addresses
Current and former Job Employer
Any other vehicles registered
Social Security number (with this alone, incredible damage can be done to...
No matter what CUCV issue your having, you can bet someone has already experienced the same problem.
TMs, informative old threads, etc and tons of members personal experience and willingness to help.
It’s THE site to be a member of for anyone who owns a MV.
It definitely helped me learn when...
When was the last time the trans filter was changed?
Restricted filter won’t help anything.
I know you said the fluid level was good but it has to flow freely through the filter.
