FAQ Thread for CUCV's

[Warthog]

Ok have been looking at other theeads but can't find an answer. Can anyone tell me I
If both alternators are 12v left and right. Or if one is 24v only. Only reason I ask I found a yard that the guy said they are bOth 12 but with the wiring passenger side shows 24. Is this correct? Because odd yes than I Xsan take my sPare 12 and use it on the 24v side.

The answer is that on all stock CUCVs (except the M1010) have two 12v alternators.

The drivers side alternator "feeds" its 12v into the ground of the passenger side alternator which shows up as 24v on the output terminal.

This is why you MUST have an isolated ground alternator on the passenger side.

The drivers side alternator is usually an isolated ground unit also , although it doesn't have to be.

The military used the same alternator on both sides just so they could only stock one type of alternator

They are both 12V. Just run in a series to get 24. They are interchangeble in stock form.

The best place to get the glow plug relay is at CUCV Electric. They have many parts for the electrical systems on cucv's. The relay costs $25 and everything else is very fairly priced. Quick shipping and knowledgeable workers.

I would make sure CUCV Electric is still in business first.

Since CUCV Electric isn't selling anything at the moment you can get alternator kits from this company

V BELT#S GOODYEAR GATORBACK, Drivers side 15585 Passenger side 15495 Power Steering 15461. These numbers put you in the middle of the adjustment range. My opinion is the quietest,toughest belts out there.
