The return circuit does get pressurized by the Cadillac valve to turn the fan off, your clamps must be able to withstand at least 100 PSI
It is possible the Cadillac valve is creating too much back pressure also.
Believe me I am not trying to be harsh but we see this type of thing happen all the time to folks new to the HMMWV world, too bad you did not come here first, you spent allot of money getting to that $.50 fix.

Please look...
Also remember the shunt that is mounted in the battery box is in the negative lead, sometimes folks assume it is positive, it also has connections inside and outside of the battery box.
S and T at the diag port should activate the starter, if not it is the batteries, the starter or the cables.
Check the voltage at T using the block as a ground for the meter while connecting to S if it stays at 24V and the starter does not activate then it is likely a starter/solenoid issue or...
Remember to disconnect the batteries any time you are doing electrical work.
It is also a good idea to pull the harness from the TSU (temp sending unit) on the right side of the water cross over to disable the glow plugs while working on electrical problems until you are actually going to try...

Fortunately if they are in nutserts drilling them out and replacing them is relatively easy.
Cannot speak on the actual job you are doing..
I guess to answer my own question, I did some searching on GP and the R1 trucks with 57XXXX serial numbers are all 4 speed trucks.
I of course I am waiting on the EUC but will be interested to see the rest of it, I assume it will have the 12K hubs etc.
It is interesting they did not give a...
I have a question for those that own a M1097R1 with 4 speed and serpentine belts.
What is your GVWR listed on the data plate??
I just bought a R1 that is apparently equipped like an A2 with 4 speed, serpentine belt etc. but it has a GVWR listed as 10K, I would have thought it would be 10300lb...
Yes, I saw that, there is no reason for AMG to charge $23, but then again not every company has the ability to move stuff like Midway, there stuff gets picked packed and out the door with no human intervention, those parts would probably cost $4-5 to ship.
I just keep a running cart with spares...
