Yes I did install new poly for the body, trans/transfer case mount, springs and radiator. I am looking forward to seeing if it improves the ride. Also installed second fuel tank, transfer pump and associated wiring. Replaced every piece of rubber I can find. Had the engine rebuilt, transmission...

It's much easier if there is someone else there to position the cab in the correct location. And if you do not need to cut the floor pans to get the body mount bolts to come out and go back in. Actually, these trucks are pretty simple to take apart and reconstruct.

Put the cab back on and started to connect everything up.

Marcus, Actually some of the pictures were added to help a member with exactly what you suggested. He needed some info on one of the items that are on the rear of the engine that is not easily seen. Your idea of having pictures of the more difficult and unseen places is a good one. I'm trying...

A few more pics as requested. Replaced all of the split loom with new high temp loom. New oil and P/S lines as well.

Very nice! Your thinking "outside of the box" came up with a great solution.

That's a good idea, I should have completed that prior to reinstalling the power plant. Never even thought of that modification. This truck is being refurbished to participate in the MVPA 2019 Convoy. After it's back together the modified S250 Camper will be added to it.

I put 8 new AC13G's in just for you Rick.

Changed out the IP and a few other parts.

I think dougco1 is on the right track. Disconnect the temperature sending unit that goes to the GP card and see if the Wait light comes on and the card closes the GP relay when you try to start the engine. By disconnecting the sensor, you give the card a high resistance on the sensor input to...

Changed.

This glow plug card has an "additional heat" option to turn the glow plugs on when the engine is warm. http://www.glowplugcards.com/ I moved this thread to the CUCV forum.

Can you get the original alternator rebuilt? It is a simple alternator and most any competent rebuild shop should be able to do it. Many of the members here have rebuilt their own with parts that are available in the Classified section. Here is more info on how to do that...

The ground on GEN2 is isolated, if it wasn't the sparks would fly. The terminal marked - on GEN2 is the ground.The GEN 2 ground is NOT the same as the ground on GEN1. GEN1 Positive is connected to the GEN2 Ground terminal, this terminal is isolated from the GEN2 case ground. It is "floating...

That indeed is a MT45F unit! I have it running on a 24 VDC battery system or 120VAC when connected to a shore line. It works very well and draws very little current. On the hottest of days during the RT66 Convoy, the unit ran for 2-3 minutes in a 15 min span. When parked for 3 days the...

Dusting and Cleaning Gave the inside a good dusting and cleaning after sitting all winter.

That's why the stud is there and not a rivet. You can have the normal card functions and a by-pass function without ever touching the vehicle wiring. Add a wire to that stud, thru a momentary switch to ground and have a push button by-pass. Just one of the few modifications that were added to...
