    M101a2 Breakaway brakes

    I know about the other parts they sell......it just has me wondering why “that” part is so controlled, for lack of a better word and not listed and sold. Luckily both of mine are like new.

    Question has already been answered and the M101A2 wasn’t even close.

    M101a2 Breakaway brakes

    The whole liability thing most likely. Especially since it’s a brake system part. Who knows. Post a pic if you can for future reference. Appreciate the update.

    How to keep her cool?

    You cannot post a link to an active listing. With that said, I would stick with the regular style fan. Maintains the character of the truck.

    Did your part show up? Any part number written on it or it’s packaging?

    Cucv service history

    Very few were lucky enough to have some service paperwork inside their trucks when picked up. No one will have the complete service or complete unit history. You’ll need a time machine for that. As mentioned, everything was purged from the file system. Take care in sanding your bumpers so...

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

    All you need is a brush guard and you’ll be set. What brand paint did you use?

    Horn Issue

    There is also a internal horn button and spring inside the turn signal assembly, inside steering column. I chased a horn issue for months before finally finding an issue with that button and spring. Installed NOS GM turn signal assembly and problem solved. Continues to be issue free. So if...

    101A2 Adventure Trailer

    What the mind thinks it can do vs what the body can physically do used to be fairly equal when we were younger. Now.......not so much. That gap gets bigger every year.

    M101a2 Breakaway brakes

    According to the schematic it’s not available. I would call Croft. They have excellent customer service and they will be able to tell you if that part is available separately, etc.

    Looking for some insight on a M1008

    Ignore Away! Wasn’t telling him what to do. Guess you missed the personal preference comments.

    Looking for some insight on a M1008

    I personally would not. I like my trucks all stock with extremely few exceptions. Now if the truck was in great, rust free condition and the seller didn’t do any permanent damage/modifications and had all the original parts.......then most likely yes. Lift kits can be taken off, etc. Wiring...

    Looking for some insight on a M1008

    At least your at the right place to ask. Welcome to the site. It makes me wonder if the seller can’t even buy a simple and readily available slave port cap, what other “simple” things were skimped on? The devil is in the details and the pics show the seller isn’t concerned about them. No...

    Good to know Surprised that GM still has them. I will be getting a few tomorrow.

    Looking for some insight on a M1008

    It depends what your looking for. Were you wanting all that stuff on it? I personally like mine stock and wouldn’t give that truck a second look. Look for a all stock one and do exactly what you want to it.

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

    Well it seems then that the Gates from China are a POS. You did well finding the Robertshaw ones. The Gates I just installed is already showing signs of giving up. Starting to open at 180* now. Just perfect.

    At least I’m not the only one. ACDelco thermostat has been ordered.
