Reviving this thread. I am kinda confused here. Can someone please verify? I have always been under the impression that the M1009 trailer wiring circuit is 24 volts. I am reading here that on M1009 trailer wiring is actually 12 volts? Is this correct for the NATO Connector as well? I...

Thanks for the info.

CUCVRUS, Thanks for your post. My tailgate is good, but want to make note of the post if needed? Can you possible send some pictures. I do great if I can see some pic to visualize it. Thanks You,

Yea, I understand your concerns. I live in Nashville TN. I try an do what I can with my CUCV. Sometimes I need help beyond my knowledge and shop space. I suggest you do some research concerning diesel shops in your area. Call them up or visit and figure out what they will do. It took me some...

Sardot1 Very ingenuous idea. Thank You! John KK4LNG

Mikey I am glad you are ok. I am sorry for your loss. Thank you for your post. It's making me rethink insurance on M1009. I wasn't aware of classic car insurance. This lead me to a question. How to best determine the value of your CUCV? After some research. i couldn't find a single M1009...

I took my CUCV M1009 on camping trip to Land Between the Lakes. I started have overcharging of batteries. In the field the best I can determine the driver side alt is problem. Voltage reading all over the place. I was concerned about frying battery as voltage was hitting 30.1. On the...

Update; I haven't been able to reproduce the higher voltage readings on a consistent basis. I think I am being paranoid. The behavior of the voltage meter has changed from what I am used to. Today I took 2 photos of the voltage meter as CUCVRUS requested. Photo 1; This is were I suspect...

Thanks for your input. I was afraid I still may have a issue. Where did the extra 1 volt come from? From past research on SS possible problems were Voltage Regulator or Battery. The alternators should be good. They have been rebuilt in the past 12 months. If it's the alternator I may have...

I am also using a MR Gasket 12D connected to a spin on filter. I had one issue with the inline filter. Easy replacement with a WIX 33046. I keep one as a spare now. stationjj

Thanks for your input. I am good with 14.5 and 14.4 reading. I understand that's a good range around 28.8 volts. My concern is that the rear will jump up to 15.4. The front stays in normal range around 14.4. At this point I am pushing 29.8 volts. Is this a concern? Sorry I could have worded...

Hello, I may or may not have an overcharging alternator problem? I say that, because months ago I did. I hoping I got the the issue resolved? I am not sure because the voltmeter fluctuates some. The CUCV isn't a DD. I am driving more now as weather is warming up for my outdoor fun. A...

Very Cool. I really like how this CUCV has come back to you after so many years! Maybe there's a reason for that?? stationjj

A few years ago I had welder build me one for my Outdoor adventures. It is attached to a Civi Blazer top. I have had no weight issues on top. I have carried camping gear and 2 kayaks with no issues. Pictures Below; John

Thanks everyone for your help. I got local diesel shop having a look at it for a 2nd opinion. If it's the IP I will have them replace it. Not in a position to do it myself. CUCVLover; I haven't replaced the sock yet. I did order a replacement tank and receiver unit. One of those jobs I...

For the Ham Radio operators. I have a Kenwood D710 with remote head mounted to dash plate on the M1009. With regard to an antenna. I am using a MFJ 1432B. This is a great VHF/UHF antenna. With this antenna you can choose your own mount. Yes, bit pricey, but range is worth the money. It's...

Thank You for the tip. I bought a set for myself. I sent emails to my other CUCV owners friends. stationjj

Hello, I suspect my IP is dying or dead. Been having a nagging issue of lose of power. I replaced electric lift pump and inline filter, and replaced spin on filter. Fuel looks clean nothing odd. Recently I can't get any fuel coming from injectors. Which leads me to IP Pump going bad...
