    Welcome to Steel Soliders from Oklahoma Sounds like a lot of work is in store for you. Did you get it at surplus auction or private seller. These are incredibly versatile trailers. Post pics and info as you complete the build.

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

    Really?! Ok Water in the tank, install new tank. Wait a year or two, or less, more water in new tank. Install another tank. Repeat as necessary. Totally unnecessary with correct additive. But if someone wants to do that, knock yourself out. Most guys on here knew what I meant.

    Changing parts won't get rid of water in the fuel tank.

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    That really looks good and the price was right. You definitely scored.

    Unicor NF2D Light Tower/Genset

    I emailed Unicor.gov today and requested any information they might still have on these sets. Not very optimistic, but worth a try. Edit: Unicor never responded.......shocker.

    Great!! Glad to hear it. I wanted one of those bare trailers, but they were too far away.

    Intermittently running poorly and wait light is now stuck on two days after

    What model truck? Is the glow plug system stock or modified? What exactly is the DMM reading? "less than normal" isn't helpful. What does intermittent running mean? Running rough and then smooth or engine sometimes quits and then starts?

    Any good trailer place will have fenders of all sizes and shapes. Dexter and Redline are just two of many trailer part/Axle manufacturers that supply the government with parts. See if the TM lists the fenders separate Use the NSN number on parttarget.com and that will tell you who makes them...

    I do also add two-cycle oil to the diesel fuel. Not a single engine/fuel issue. Everyone has their own idea and preference on what to, or not to, use in their fuel. For me, Seafoam (everything) and two-cycle oil (for diesel only) is, and has been, working extremely well.

    To each his own, but I have had nothing but positive results. I use it in everything. From motorcycles, lawnmowers, to my 5 ton. My brother and uncle do also. Never an issue.

    States it right on the can. I added a can yesterday and do so every month. No issues after two plus years.

    Put a can of Seafoam in the fuel tank and see if that helps. More times than not it does. I would also change the fuel filter. You never know what junk was in the tank.

    Installed new Copper/Brass Radiator in M1008A1

    Yes and yes. He and I were both hoping it could be fixed. Unfortunately, something was cracked (forgot what he called it) and he said it was a death sentence for this type radiator. Showed me the spot and it was definitely there. The owner is a military vehicle fan and was extremely...

    Unicor NF2D Light Tower/Genset

    I will do that. I think only 25 of these units have ever been sold by GP, so their kind of a rare breed for sure.

    Tackle one thing at a time as to not get overwhelmed. As much of a pain that it is now, in the end, you will have a much better truck and the pride knowing you made it that way. Plus all the automotive knowledge you will accumulate as you fix everything. As they say....., it's definitely a...
