It sounds like you should spend some time going through starting/charging/GP systems before you make any more attempts. If you haven't done the doghead or resistor bypass, I would highly suggest them before you possibly do any damage to those systems. Without these functioning 100%, you are...

I'm not sure why it is needed. With 160hp, just put a brick on the pedal and the CUCV should hold steady at about 65mph :)

A new 4x4 shop is opening up within a month and we are looking for a counter sales representative and lead technician. This is a general shop capable of installing all parts sold by the retail space but will be specializing in Jeep products. If you or know of anyone that is interested, please...

I would agree with all of that, just be wary of installing 30 year old electronics. I think the gas version used a vacuum actuator and the diesel version was different with an electric actuator right in front of the IP facing down at an angle. If you go scrap yard, I would source one off a...

Awesome! Congrats on the purchase!!!

I've had great luck with ORD parts and service.

Can you verify that the volt gauge is low when the wait light is on?

cheater!

Were you able to find the D range position on the gearshift???

Your front axle makes me cry inside just a little bit!

Probably a waste of time at that. I personally like making old things work since it is the definition of recycling or probably more like restoration. For such a key component of the generator function, having a questionable controller is not piece of mind. I will be looking at your APECS...

I have used tap water in every personal vehicle and professional vehicle I have serviced...have yet to have a failure due to corrosion. Granted I change mine below the service interval and take good care of my vehicles before bad things tend to happen. I highly suspect that if you are having...

Before you buy anything, you should ask yourself what you want to do with the truck. I converted over to 120/240 because I wanted house power back up. This required changing out the compressor motor and doing some rewiring in the panel. Just a good decision to make and standby if purchasing new...

I don't think you actually have to crank the first time out. If it is super cold out (sorry for a non-scientific term here), you probably can turn the key on, wait a bit, turn it off, then turn back on again for a second cycle...then crank. Don't let the wait light fool you, when it goes out...

It was usually a 3 speed forward, 1 reverse trans coupled to a 2 speed transfer case (HI/LO) along with a front axle part time system. The front axle had no hubs, they had drive flanges which coupled the wheel to the axle all the time. It was up to the driver to simply select 2wd or 4wd to get...

With the hubs locked in, the front components aren't stationary. In theory, they are spinning at the same speed as the rear components. You should be able to pull the 4wd lever in HI range at ANY speed if front and rear are spinning at same rates. Now this is assuming you have the hubs locked in...

I agree, the front LSD in the my M1031 has some twitchy pulling and return to center with them locked in. Certainly keeps you awake behind the wheel. I've had front Detroits with less wheel feedback...strange. You will want to make sure your front ujoints are greased if applicable and keep an...

Glad that things are getting better! I will say it again but the damper really has nothing to do with DW. It prevents the creation of oscillation, really prevents it with oversized offset tires, but the steering on its own should not death wobble by itself with no damper present under pretty...

This is a good deal! More people should be like you!!!

Someone with more generator knowledge may chime in and trump what I have to say... Personally, after getting all the safety switches adjusted and getting the M1031 into generator mode, check for 12v at the governor box. Without power, you are dead in the water. Also check your ground connection...
