    M939 Series Cannon Plug ID

    Hello. I have an M925A1 with this cannon plug next to the diagnostics plug. Many of you have seen it and I was wondering if any of you had the NSN or better yet, the Mouser stock number for the connecting plug. I’m trying to set up a power buss under the right console and this would be the...

    Exhaust Manifold Bolt Torque

    What is the recommended exhaust manifold bolt torque value for an NHC-250? I found the assembly instructions in the TM but there is no mention of how much torque to apply to the bolts.

    Military Tires of Canada Buyer Beware

    I just purchased three Hutchinson Bead Locks from Military Tires of Canada. One of them had no rivets intact to hold the rubber band in place around the stiffener. They were a great price, $36 a piece, plus $119 shipping. I called to discuss the issue and some Russian dude answered the phone...

    Hutchinson Run Flat Inserts

    That sounds okay. When the strap is released with the insert in the tire, doesn’t it get hung up inside?

    Hutchinson Run Flat Inserts

    I’ve seen the HUMVEE ratchet strap for their inserts on EBay but never the one for truck tires. Please let me know if you ever see one or you find someone who’s willing to rent the use of it. I am in western PA and would drive quite a ways to get two of them done. Just want them for the front...

    Hutchinson Run Flat Inserts

    I have some run flat inserts and would like to install them in my Michelin XZL 16R20 tires but can’t find a vendor who has the machine or know how to install them. I’ve called and emailed Hutchinson numerous times and they won’t respond. Tried the Army at Toby Hanna where they have the machine...

    M105A2 Landing Gear Problem

    Holy smoke! Good for you. I wish everyone had that much integrity, you’re a good man. You wouldn’t have taken the time to help me and share this event if you weren’t. And you’re right, at least that soldier knows mechanical problems contributed greatly to the accident and he gets more sleep.

    M105A2 Landing Gear Problem

    Thanks for the insight. It seems as though all of our technical guidance has some pages “written in blood.” Some advice I received early on in the USAF is that when you’re planning a mission and there is an opportunity to do something dumb, dangerous, or different, think about it carefully...

    M105A2 Landing Gear Problem

    Very nice work, perfect for the job at hand. My trailer was $408 from Govt Planet. For the robust nature of these trailers, well worth the money. I can see why you choose to use them as platforms for other functions.

    M105A2 Landing Gear Problem

    Thank you for your help! Your time is much appreciated as I endeavor to make my trailer great again. It will carry tires and tools for the M925 when we go to shows.

    M105A2 Landing Gear Problem

    First off, that is a great looking trailer you made. Secondly, I discovered that the entire pintle is loose from the mount. Here's a photo of the replacement part. The spindle on my trailer slides free when I take the nut off and they welded a washer to the nut. Here's a photo of the new...

    M105A2 Landing Gear Problem

    Thank you. The 1990 version is what I was using. I’ll try and get some photos of the loose assembly. The TM does not show the top of the spindle with the nut/washer combo that’s there.
