    CUCV NP208 Speedo gear colors\tooth count

    So the cale So, to be honest the cable looked like new, still a goldish color and shiny. I took the whole cable out. I took the cable out, and blew through the cable conduit with a bit of lube, similar to WD40. After that, the bouncing slowed but still present. Gears had ATF on them.

    CUCV NP208 Speedo gear colors\tooth count

    Thanks. Yes very helpful, to your advisement, I am going to remove and inspect the assembly for defects, and adjust as needed. Is there a preferred grease that is over the counter?

    CUCV NP208 Speedo gear colors\tooth count

    Judging by the equation given in the link you supplied, the proper driven gear would be 45 tooth as opposed to 41 tooth.........any thoughts? 30.5 inch tires "factory size"

    CUCV NP208 Speedo gear colors\tooth count

    My speedo was work great, and then one day it started to bounce when I got up to maybe 45 MPH or so. I checked the cable, I checked the connections The speedometer does work, so I think the issue is in the gear set inside the tailshaft of the NP208. I have found a site that still sells the...

    New to forum, new m1008 owner, GEN 1 issue.

    Removed the stupid 12 volt system. I get it for those who dont drive them, or intend to use them, but I do, and a 24 volt truck is just not practical for anything other than playing GIJOE.

    Paradox by Design CUCV HMMWV cooling kit

    Wow, just asking a technical question. If you dont have the answer, no problem. GM engineers evidently did not do much....because that "mod" was not factory. I was looking at a diagram of the flow path of the 6.2,, and came up with the question. I just have not seen any data on this kit on...

    Paradox by Design CUCV HMMWV cooling kit

    I hav been wondering........ the 6.2 has a bypass hose which connects to the bottom of the crossover and the top of the water pump with a hose, 7\8s I think. Could a hose not be ran to that location with a tee? That hose should be recirculating fluid all the time. My 6.2 has a plate on the...
