    IH TD-14 dozer (1943)

    Hi guys… I am usually active on the CUCV side of the forum, but I was just given an old bulldozer and realized this afternoon that it was most likely in World War II. Is there a forum for old construction equipment in steel soldiers? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I just wanted to make a note thanking you guys for having this forum and for all of the archives available. My CUCV had recently started having issues with not starting when cold.

    I busted out my window and bent up the top part of my tailgate when I hit a tree limb backing down a trail the other day. Uggg.... Now there is a huge crease in it and I need to determine whether or not to have a body shop repair it (unless someone can tell me how to do it myself) or replace...

    M1009 - Dashpad

    I know there are a LOT of places to get dashpads and I've read so many postings about dashpads that my head is spinning. Who has the best quality replacement dashpad? Are the ones from our favorite catalog distributor worth it? Anyone else have any worthwhile? Are there any stores that carry...

    More and more my IP is giving me troubles. I have to keep bottles of water in the truck and pour over the IP each time, if I turn the engine off, when warm, for more than 30 mins. Although I love the truck, I can't keep worrying about this truck leaving me stranded and I also don't want to...

    I had not driven my CUCV in the rain/ice until this week and when I went to turn on the wipers I found that the passenger side blade is not touching the glass when it moves.

    M1009 - Stripping it down to "bedline" the entire truck, inside and out

    I just had an offer to be able to utilitze someone's paint (bedliners only) shop to spray my CUCV with a bedliner type of material. They may even donate the liner material. The catch? First, the shop is located about 30 miles from where I live. Second, I have to prep the truck for the job...

    Temp sensor - replacing

    I may have found one reason why my truck is having issues starting. Both wires to the temperature sensor are frayed and barely hanging on. I am trying to replace it, but I am having trouble removing the old sensor. Should I "muscle" it out? Or is there another trick?
