This is the Convoy that you heard of.
The Northwest Parks Convoy (NWP’22) was postponed in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic and has been rescheduled for August 2022. The convoy will be traveling through Idaho, Washington and Oregon starting August 14, 2022 in Kamiah, Idaho with a round...
I have used KBS products on antennas, so far no issues. Painted 102" and many other smaller antenna whips with this:
KBS Top Coat
It is available in Flat Black, OD green, Camo Brown and Desert Tan. I have painted 2 vehicles with it as well. So far it has been a good choice.
I prepped the whips...
Yes, after a few times on various projects, I have finally learned to test items out of the box. Seems like there is no QC any more.
Stopped at Autozone, new ones will be here tomorrow. Hopefully they will work out of the box.
Yesterday I removed a defective wiper motor, connected the new one up before installing it...Dead out of the box!
I'm glad I tested it prior to installing it. So off to Auto Zone today to get replacements on order.
Gregg is correct;

Well, I already have a M1010 and it's going to be resto project #3. Sorry, Rick, I don't need another 1010 body here.
It's nice to see a truck go from being "Lost in the Woods" (yes I was at Ft Leonard Wood) to a functioning machine. The folks at Hillbilly Wizard really helped make this save...
I found this former USAF beauty sitting in the woods. Actually it was at Hillbilly Wizards place, waiting to be scrapped or saved.
After many months of pondering and hesitation on my part, John and I struck up a deal. The idea was to get it fixed it up so it is able to be driven around. It's...
I was looking at the schematics last night to see what could be the problem to your situation.
I would start with checking all of the fuses and the fusible links at the 12v power diamond on the firewall.
Check each part with a volt ohm meter to ensure that it is good. Sometime parts that look...
The second photo looks like they go to the drivers side alternator.
The Brown wire with push on connector goes to the tach buffer connection and the Black/White wire goes to the ground connection.
I know the feeling,
A friend of mine and I troubleshot a problem that we " didn't have " today with a antenna rotor.
3 hours later, we fixed a problem that wasn't there when we started.
As we all know, If it isn't broken, don't fix it.
CUCV Start Up
Here is a video of my M1009, the temp was around 50 deg F.
The voltmeter on the left is measuring the voltage to the glow plugs. The one on the right is the standard 24 v meter.
During the warm up time, the GP voltage is 8 volts. After start up it goes up to around 10 volts.
Once...
The card will only cycle the GP relay if the Voltage monitor circuit of the GP card detects a higher than desired voltage. At one time I did measure it, but that was years ago and I do not remember what it was. I think.....again think, some where above 14 volts.
It sounds like your original...
Your GP system is working normally. The high current draw after the engine is running is normal. The voltage sag is normal.
The glow plugs being on after start up is normal. The WIF light momentary flash issue is not normal, but we addressed that and a possible solution via PM.
After start up...
CUCV Charging Circuits
Looking at the schematic, for the passenger side alternator, it appears that the large Red with the Orange wire, connects to the Positive terminal.
The single large Red wire connects to the isolated Negative terminal.
You may want to verify the other end of these wires...
