One day ill get my hands on one but prices are too high right now. Ls will be the heart cause that diesel had my walls rumbling
God those seats are sick!
:)
Door panels are the stock color. The dash originally was the same color. They originally had a rubber floor mat with jute padding that trapped moisture, and rotted the floor, but it did help with sound deadening some of noise. Good to remove it. The truck is all 12 volt except the starter and Nato jump plug. You can take 12 volts off the buss bar(white covers) or in the back seat area passenger side. Get out your volt meter. That's a nice one. If your not familiar with the black out light switch you should figure it out to keep from losing your lighting accidentally.
Thanks for the info Greg!
That's usually a quick tell if it's actually a CUCV or a civilian model with green paint. The door panels and dash rarely match. The dashes were removed en mass to be modified, then thrown back in whatever truck was next in line. The glow plugs, while 12 volt, originally were run off the 24v side as well. Through a resistor that steps it down to roughly 12v, this was done so that the glow plugs and starter could both be operated from the slave cable supply.
@@Anubis78250 Mechanically a CUCV will also have an extra leaf in the suspension and a TH400 transmission instead of the standard 700R4.
Wow runs good . That nose clatter nose is the cool advance on the timing sounds good
love it!
Yours still has the low light headlight designed for night driving. Kudos!!!
Gut one too since 1998. I like the bfg mud terrain tires you put on the Rig. 33s or orig 31s ? Regards Nico
I'm not sure of the size, but I agree, they look nice on it!
I'd like to purchase this car.
I'm always looking for it.
I'd love one too, I think they are hard to find this nice.
What transmission cooler did you use? Looking to do the same to mine and was wondering.
Here is the exact one:

1:40: what is the metal plate with the number? And can you still buy them ?
Maybe someone else can chime in on this. I don't know anything about it. Sorry.
It’s called a bridge plate, that’s all i know. I want one for my M1009
@@iqis5962 thanks!
Called a bridge plate, basically tells the weight of the vehicle and capacity and what bridges you're permitted to cross and which ones you can't
What gear ratio comes in these trucks?
3.08:1
What is your fuel mileage;
It’s a customers car so I’m not sure.
Do you have any intention of selling?
No, It's not mine.
You should probably let it warm up before you begin to drive it
You are absolutely right, if it was stone cold you’d want to give it a few minutes for sure. In this case it was not a cold engine. Not up to operating temp yet but not cold.
@@bennieaust my mistake, I thought it was stone cold lol 😆
@@adrianrios4949 it sounds like it! :)
Yep it’s noisy
I got a vehicle just like that here in Reno, Nevada. If you or you know someone interested.
Thanks Jason, I'll send them your way!
I also have a gas one with an LT1 engine.
@@popej1able nice! The square bodies are popular. Sounds like both of yours are unique!
How much? What condition? I'm also inna NV and always wanted one
I believe my friend wants $5000 for the diesel. I’m sure he will come down a bit to get rid of it. In the Reno area.
you should not put a truck like that on one of those lifts
What do you mean by "truck like that"? What do you mean by "those lifts"? And why not?
Wow this guy should not work on anyrhing....there's literally a terminal right behind that mess he wired and 1 in the rear passenger side interior🙄
If you follow the brake controller manufacturer’s specific instructions it’s mandatory to wire it straight to the battery. Is there a specific reason you don’t recommend doing it that way?
Thanks for watching!
Do you have any intention of selling?
No, it’s not mine.
