    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Thank you! I like to tinker and learn new things. I also coated the inside of the battery compartment with a rubberizing coating.

    Banks to discontinue sidewinder turbo this month.

    I considered doing this when I had my V8 Ranger. https://www.enginelabs.com/news/video-remote-mounted-turbos-tested-what-are-you-really-giving-up/ More plumbing but more real estate to work with.

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    I found some play time this past weekend. Converted the lower passenger side rear storage box into a battery box for 2 group 24 batteries. Batteries are connected in parallel to stay at 12 volts. Batteries are set up so that both negative terminals are outboard by the door. Negative cables have...

    Someone just bought a new starter kit…

    I am sad it was not closer and I had the money. The box serial number is only 5 digits away from mine. They sat in the same lot at one time.

    M1028 / M1008 Spare tire

    Longer all thread with two nuts lock washered together above the cross member on both sides and reuse the special nut for the release side and two more nuts lock washered together on the other side will work really well.

    What equipment would've been issued/carried on an M1008 in service?

    The bare minimum is listed in Appendix B of TM9-2320-289-10. The UOC (Usable On Code) for an M1008 is 194 or 208. Appendix C lists all the additionally authorized items. supposedly all items fit in the tool bag that went behind the seat, or under it.

    (negative) battery cutoff not working

    If it is what I think, trace it back. It may go to the 24 v solargizer. Little black box that also runs to the small solar panel on the hood, if yours has it. It will have a matching black wire on the negative bus bar. I would remove the capacitor in the red circle unless you intend to run...
