    M1008 external trans cooler

    Running it through the OE style radiator cooler second is fine. People will argue about anything, but your way is fine. It will likely not get overly warm anyhow in the cold weather through the main radiator, but in your cold temps, it could help.

    M1009 lost all electrical power

    I think you're chasing the wrong problem with the glow plug relay. If it were stuck open, it most likely wouldn't have blown anything. If it would have stuck shut, the glow plugs would have likely all burned up. If you are decent with a wiring diagram, you need to start measuring voltage at the...

    M1009 lost all electrical power

    I doubt it, really. let me grab a photo of where to check. Also i believe my wiring is probably not correct for a truck that still has the glow plug resistor, mine was gone and its all 12v here. Pull on these wires near the little black round plastic barrels in the middle. if they are bad...

    M1009 lost all electrical power

    check the fusible links at the firewall. I had the same thing happen to me and it was a blown fusible link shorted out by a can of soup. Pull on them, if they are blown they will stretch and come apart

    M1031 CUCV Alternator

    Has it been converted to 12v or is it still 24?

    M1031 CUCV Alternator

    Rebuilding them is not particularly hard if you have some tools and are handy. I did both of mine and the only trouble I had was one of the bearings was seized onto the main shaft of the alternator rotor. I bought kits from somebody on this site. I really don't remember who it was, it has been...

    The official 2023 Southeast Military Vehicle Rally information thread (the event formerly known as the Georgia Rally).

    We rode over there from the access road near the porto potty just to check out the place this time. Maybe one gate was closed, but the path near the field was open.

    So two years in a row now, nobody has used the pavilion and the giant fire pit on the other side of the small tree patch. That area is part of the rented area.

    Flywheel area knocking mystery….

    LoL, you're lucky you got that flex plate out and didn't ride on it any longer. That thing looks moments away from grenading apart.

    That looks like a fairly standard open differential.

    Official 2023 SEMVR (Southeasternish Military Vehicle Rally) multimedia thread

    Us touring the brand new camper park before it opens officially to the customers. Some pics we took on the trails. We went up to the very top of the mountain where the old radar site was. Met a Windrock guy that was born in 1948 and grew up around there. He says up until 1958, the only way...

    We're out on the trails, it is just as dusty as last year if you pass someone. It is only Thursday yet, it hasn't been very busy though.

    I'll be there in my tent with the kids wednesday night. Hope to have a fire pit area this year to hang out at.

    M1009 Major Starting Issues

    You want the one with the straight arm like the HFP906.

    M1028 fusible link issue

    When I shorted a fuible link, I found it by tugging on the wires at the main power point on the firewall near the glow plug relay. You can tell if one is bad, it will stretch apart the insulation instead of being tight, since the wire inside has broken.

    Another CUCV Alternator question

    One thing to be sure of is that your alternator light indicators in the dash are also good. From what I understand, the alternator needs that path to ground and the small load the light provides to turn itself on. If they turn on when the engine is not running but the key is on, then the...
