Went to do a spin on fuel filter conversion on one of my M1008 CUCV’s. Everything we found online seemed to be chopped up & incomplete in regards to a parts list and how to. So I’m going to give you a start to finish picture scenario along with a complete parts list. 1st picture - on the left...

I have a 1986 M1008. It has a permanent battery tinder, oil pan heater & factory coolant heater. Thought we had unplugged the oil pan & coolant heaters & plugged in the battery tinder yesterday but when I went out to the truck today I realized the coolant heater was still plugged in. Checked the...

My truck is bone stock and it's exactly on the line between yellow and green. I've had my M1008 for 9 years and it's my daily driver so I assume nothing is wrong with it. Thank you!!

On my M1008, does the volt meter read only the 24 volt system or does it read the 12 and 24 volt.

Was able to get a part # - 15537759GM. Does anyone know where you can still get OEM parts? Or is aftermarket my only choice? Thanks

Does anyone have the original GM part # for the CUCV M1008 mufflers? Or does anyone know where you can get the original mufflers? Thank you

Thank you, I will look into both suggestions.

Have an 86 M1008 that every now and then when I turn the steering wheel to turn a corner the horn goes off. Sometimes it stays on & you have to hit the steering column right where the steering wheel and column connect in order to shut it off. It will go months on end with no issue and then all...

Removed the rear drive shaft off my M1008 and had some issues with getting the u joints removed. Had a hard time finding info and the info that I did find suggested that I heat them up. Tried that and still didn't work and I remembered that I had the Unit Maintenance manual (TM9-2320-289-20)...

I replaced all my belts on my M1008 and they were all nice and tight. After 500 miles or so when you turn the steering wheel you can hear some squealing. I checked the belts again & marked the alternator and power steering pump and they weren't loose. I don't want to overtighten the belts and...

Thank you for the offer. He found someone to jumpstart the front battery and was about 5 miles from home when the gen 2 belt broke off. Not sure why that happened but luckily he made it before it got worse.

Because of all the wires hooked up to the batteries tied down it's a bit difficult to switch them out. It is possible for the back battery to jump the front battery? Thank you!

Thank you for the quick response Warthog. I put this on for my friend that is trying to see how far he can make it home. So what exactly does the Gen 2 do? Seems to me that the Gen 1 runs most everything. The truck has a battery tinder mounted on the fender when the truck is not in use. It gets...

So my Gen1 belt fell off a couple of hours from home. Of course it's dark and raining and I really don't have the tools with me to replace it right now. I went and picked up the belt but will I make it home. My gen 2 belt is just fine but not sure if just the gen 2 will keep my batteries charged...

Have a 1986 M1008 with 45,000 original miles on it. We got it when it had 5,000 miles on it from Boyce Equipment out of Ogden, UT and were the first person to title it. Runs like a top and is in mint shape. About a year ago when you would turn the corner, you would keep turning and turning the...

Is the engine coolant temp light supposed to light up when you turn the key on a M1008? I'm not referring to the low coolant light because the manual does state that that light should come on (which mine does) but the manual doesn't refer to the engine coolant temp light. Mine doesn't light up...
