Does anyone have a picture of the correct wiring on the glow plug solenoid for the CUCV 1008? I believe the wiring is incorrect on mine causing the glow plugs not to work.

Thanks everyone for the help. I did the doghead mod and problem fixed. Truck fired right up.

Thanks for all the help guys! As of right now both batteries are new just replaced them a couple weeks ago and they are fully charged. Starter and starter solenoid is brand new just replaced it yesterday. I will try the relay mod and see if that is the problem. When truck was running, never had...

How is the Doghead starter relay mod done?

I have a 1984 CUCV 1008 and the other day while at my deer lease the truck died. Immediately the starter reengaged and continued to turn over while the key was off. It ended up melting a small wire running to the distribution block on the fire wall behind the batteries and tried to melt the...

Thank you I will let you know if I need one.

Thank you!

This helps a lot. Yes my truck has the factory transmission and transfer case. Is there any certain size to ask for or will they know which one I need?

Noticed transmission fluid on the ground under my M1008. When I looked under the truck I noticed the adapter between the transmission and transfer case was cracked. Anyone have this problem before? Where can I can a replacement adaptor quick?

Thank You! I wanted to make sure there wasn't any special way to hook it up. Thanks again for your help.

It is electric 12v

How are you guys wiring your winch's up? I have the Mile Marker 12,000lbs winch and was wondering the best way to wire it up for operation. My truck is still has the 24 volt system. Pics would be helpful if anyone has some. Thanks in advance!

Yes sir you hit the nail on the head when you predicted the bent rod. I would love to do the Big Cam swap but just cant do it right now it will have to be a later project after my shop is built. So fixing this one is what I will have to do for now. At least I know it will be right when it goes...

Simp, Shoot me a PM with payment info and I will get the rod from you. Thanks for the help!

Thanks Simp! Any idea on a good place to get a replacement rod? Are the Big Cam and Small Cam rods the same?

Was able to get the motor tore down this weekend. Found the head gasket had blown on the number 5 and 6 causing a bent rod on number five. Is there a certain rebuild kit preferred more than others or are all the kits sold pretty much the same quality? I will be changing the head bolts on that...

Thanks Silverstate, - After finding the rust hole on the bottom side of the filter canister I have ordered a new complete canister. I have drained the fluids from the Diffs and did notice some water in the fluid. I am in the process of getting the retaining nut sockets to remove the bearings...

This is the same truck I have had for the last 2 years and yes it does have a fording kit on it. Not sure if its an ex Marine Corp truck but the kit is there and works. Would love to do the big cam swap just not sure if I want to get that deep in to it right now. Plus I have no idea what engine...

Thanks Doghead I am working on all that now.

I believe I have made the decision to rebuild the current engine. I have already drained and flushed the diffs everything else looked good except engine. I plan on starting the tear down this weekend. Thanks!
