What have you done to your square lately??

Rusty is still tag-able, his user name just has a space in it. I would have just tagged him to show it, but I figured I wouldn't bring his attention to here if it wasn't necessary.

ODD! When I tried tagging him earlier his name didn't show as an option. I did the @, then typed in rusty and waited for options, and his was not one of them. Just now I tried it the same as I did earlier and it showed up. Only difference was computer(earlier), phone(now).

Good to see he didn't deactivate and erase everything, he's a good guy and brings a twist to a situation.

Getting the CUCV ready to bring out of winter hibernation...

I had my dash apart to replace the CUCV voltmeter with 24v & 12V voltmeters from VDO, and to replace the heater controls with a new one from LMC since the old one looked pretty ratty. While everything was apart, I cleaned all of the contacts on the cluster circuit board, and I added LED's from NAPA for the gauge lighting and voltmeters. I thought it turned out pretty well.

Next, I installed new alternator pulleys so I can use 1/2" wide FleetRunner V-belts instead of the factory 3/8" belts. Everyone who's owned a 6.2 CUCV with dual alternators know how the belts are prone to wearing out and squealing all the time. So far, so good. They seem to be nice and quiet. The real test will be when I put some miles on them this summer.

No sir! That's impressive looking and deserves to be cleaned up and used as a combination paperweight/conversation-starter!

Stupid as this reads, sprayed two coats under moonlight and then got up at dawn to tack cloth and spray last coat….definitely not gonna win truck show competition….but perfect enough for me.
