The REV does have stronger brakes, but not by enough to worry about unless you're going to badly overload the A2. A2 maxes at 10,300 gross weight and REV can be max 15,500 gross. I know my M1123 will lock up the brakes at over 9k gross weight if I really stomp on them, so can't really ask for...

I thought engine idle was supposed to be around 650, not down at 500?

The ECV/REV will definitely seem like more power compared to the A2 trucks, due to a little lower gearing plus the extra power from the turbo. 190hp vs 160hp. 3.08 differential gearing vs 2.73 Personally I've had my M1123 cross the scale at 13,500 lbs between truck and trailer, with the BEOD...

4 speed non-turbo can do 75 on the highway (as long as it's relatively level) no problems. The way the gearing is the non-turbo will cruise at a little lower RPMs than the turbo truck for the same speed. A lot of the 1123 had an armor upgrade package, and the suspension is crap. As in...

Basically, any batteries that you can make fit into the battery box, or any other location that you want to use (the H1 uses a holder near the front passenger tire) The original 6T battery was only rated for around 660 CCA, so anything above that will be fine, though more is better if you live...

Best: AGM. will hold up better to abuse and vibration than flooded. Second best: Maintenance free flooded lead acid. don't need checked monthly for fluid level. Last place: flooded lead acid. Will need checked monthly for fluid level and topped off with distilled water as necessary, will leak...

Looking at the batteries, there are supposed to be additional wires hooked up to the positive post of the rearward battery (usually toward the rear of the battery box as installed, but it means the positive post of the cable between the two batteries inside the box) that are the power source for...

Even with the top opening, and what I assume is the shed area possibly being open at one end, additional air movement isn't a bad idea to have, even something as simple as a box fan to move new air into the enclosed area. I've seen the end results of multiple generators being run with...

His nickname.

Looks like the mounting plate for the earlier trucks, so at minimum would need different mount to the truck.

EMT seems a little light to me, especially if you're going to put couplers in the middle of a longer span that will have rain and snow potentially collecting on top. If the shape is anything like the bows for the troop carrier and 1102 trailers, then the top section has a bend in it as well, and...

I would say for a family where you are the only fully capable adult for setup, then the 305 is a bit large (18x25'). One of my buddies has a 303 for his family and it's usually a 3-4 person setup to make it easy, but 2 people can do it if necessary, and I wouldn't really want to do it by...

Pre 196900 and post 196900 serial number setups. There is also a difference in belt routing and an additional idler pulley for the post 196900 serial number setups with the remote reservoir, along with a different support bracket for the rear of the alternator.

I believe these are the threads with the relevant information https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/how-to-bypass-pcb-i-am-aware-some-hmmwv-owners-have-done-it-tobash.182560/...

The one you linked shows a -BC ending and says for non-turbo trucks.

Only difference between those part numbers is the shift points. According to the below list found on a different site, the -BB is for a non-turbo truck. 2100-AA: turbo first generation 2100-AB: turbo second generation 2100-AC: turbo latest generation 2100-BA: N/A first generation 2100-BB...

Unless there is something very different about your truck, the farm jack should have no issues lifting one wheel off the ground. If for some reason that isn't enough height for you, you can also position the jack underneath the front bumper next to the shackle, or there are other ways to get...

Yes. It will shift off to the side even if it is in park and brakes locked. The farm jack just doesn't have any sideways stability, so it shifts sideways, not forward or backwards. You can use the high lift in conjunction with a bottle jack, especially if the tire is flat and too low, to lift...

Safe? That's a relative term. Farm jacks are also known as "Suicide Jacks" for a reason. Short answer, NO! I've used a farm jack on a shackle ring at those locations, and as long as you only lift a single wheel off the ground, and have the other end blocked so it can't shift then yes, you...

Use a mechanical gauge to verify, but those numbers sound decent enough. I wouldn't worry. These use mechanical oil pump, so either it's working and you have pressure, or you don't. If you didn't the engine would have let you know by now. Not much middle ground. Every gauge and sender will...
