    Michigan Vic-1 Owners

    Are there any Southern Michigan members out there with a working vic-1 intercom that I could meet up with? I cannot get my system to function and would like to test my components on a working system to try to find the problem. These are all new components and the settings are correct but it...

    Spotlights

    The passenger side has the clamp mount for the gun ring leg that runs up to the bottom of the windshield frame and the light poles were too long and would interfere with it, unless I shortened the pole. Plus if I ever did put the windshield down, I would still have a spotlight available for use...

    Mysterious Water Leak

    Leaks are the cucv's nemisis. You guys are right, the windshields and the kick panel vents are how the water gets into the cab. I spent a lot of time trying to eliminate where the drips were coming from. Due to a crack, I had a new windshield (tinted), installed in my 1009. I tested the...

    DEUCE AIR LEAK

    Let us know if you find a source for new hoses. Mine leaked at the swivel and the only replacement I could find was a take off.

    My first and new Kaiser m715

    Cool! Man, your truck sure is clean. No rust underneath either! Was your air cleaner just laying loose on the carb? Hope it's not bolted on that way. It should be level.

    My first and new Kaiser m715

    Very nice and solid looking truck. Welcome to the site, glad to have another M715 owner on board! So the powertrain is original? Got any pics of the 230? One thing about your truck though,...... you need to get some paint over the chrome mirrors..... :)

    Testing Alternator Output

    Got a question for you sparky experts. What is the correct way to check the output of the 60 amp alternator? Pic shows the one I have. The way I checked it was in vehicle, running at 1200rpms. First I disconnected the batterys (neg cable), removed the cover over the field and hot wires, then...

    Spotlights

    Thanks for the kind words guys. I enjoy tinkering around with the truck and doing mods like this. To me, it's great R&R therapy.

    stalling now no start

    Sounds like the pressure switch in the back of the filter housing is leaking, like ace said. It is common. Unbolt the housing, clean and dry the back off then start it and watch. Bet it will get wet from that spot.

    Slight background tone or hum on transmit?

    Congrats, you fired it up! I'm no expert on these radios by any means BC, and I've only used mine a couple times, but I get no background noise. Crystal clear and sharp, transmitting and receiving. I'm sure there are many factors that could cause distortion though, so maybe some of the experts...

    Cargo Box Light

    Heres another feature I added to the M35. Since it's a hassle to find something in the back of the duece when it's dark out, especially with the top on, I added a light. It's an armor light mounted on the headache rack. Wires run down in front of the box and are joined with waterproof military...

    Alcohol Evaporator kits

    Here is where I mounted mine. It's on the inner fender in front of the heater. I can check and fill it without opening the hood, but by opening the side panel only.

    Spotlights

    OK, as promised, here are some pics of my spotlight installation. I used light 'poles' from a bridge truck. I wanted to be able to direct the lights from inside of the cab, so that determined the area to mount them. The drivers side didn't leave me with a lot of options for mounting the pole...
