    Rear seat belt options?

    Curious if anyone has added rear seat belts to a non-ROPS equipped M151A2? My kids are bugging me for a ride, other than around the block. I'm not comfortable with that without some type of restraint. Would only be used for short drives, maybe to the local car shows, etc, no highway use. I...

    My New M923A1

    Very nice. Welcome to the site and hobby. Can't help with the 923 questions, but the search engine works well. There is a sub forum on painting,etc. that should have the info you need. There are also many vendors that will have the stuff you need, like TNJ Murray, Eastern Surplus, Memphis...

    Did you get your HMMWV back on the street yet?

    Anyone have experience with these gensets?(Pow'r Gard / wisconsin Robin Diesel)

    I got all three running like a top! All load tested and good. Pretty neat little units. I only need a few feet of 1/4" fuel lines to make them almost perfect, and learn how to prime them. One had a badly clogged fuel valve at the bottom of the gas tank. Thanks for the help!

    m151a2...finished!

    I love it. That looks awesome. Great job on it. I can't decide what color or scheme to do mine in.....I'm torn between a USMC M151A2 and your camo pattern.

    Anyone have experience with these gensets?(Pow'r Gard / wisconsin Robin Diesel)

    I got two of them running today. One is running really well. The second ran for a while and then quit. No fuel is getting to the filter after about 5 minutes of fuel flowing fine. The fuel hose is clear. I think the shut off valve on the bottom of the fuel tank is clogged.....probably from some...

    Great, now what did I do? (w/pictures)

    Good thing it happened at low speed! You'll have it back in service in no time. Make sure you check the TM on the hub for proper backlash, etc. I had this happen to me last year on a "refurbished by military contractor" HMMWV that I was driving on 71 NB near Mansfield, OH from Wright Patterson...

    Anyone have experience with these gensets?(Pow'r Gard / wisconsin Robin Diesel)

    They are about 150lbs +\- Can't wait to try the electric start! Small units, but they should work well to help light our firearms range, or for other small emergencies. They were requisitioned for use by another Government agency, so the cost was $0.

    Anyone have experience with these gensets?(Pow'r Gard / wisconsin Robin Diesel)

    I picked three of these up at Fort Dix while I was out that way today. Look like decent units. Haven't tried them yet. I need to get batteries for them, perform some maintenance, and fire them up!

    M35A3 Owners unite

    Thanks. I'm getting ready to service my bearings and hubs, but when I need tires in a few years, I'm going to do the exact same thing you have there. That looks awesome. Once I get everything apart, I might need to buy some of those A3 parts :) I haven't had any issues and I'm hoping my bearings...

    M35A3 CTIS problem

    I'll second the valve stem grommet. Especially if you changed the o-ring between the rim halves.

    M35A3 Owners unite

    Rtk.... Nice looking A3. The 395's are in my future. Are those standard A3 wheels minus the CTIS stuff?

    M35A3 Owners unite

    ATF in the tranny might make it shift better, but won't get you any more speed. There is a recommended ATF fluid which escapes me at the moment. I still run the 15W40 in mine, no problems. There are a lot of opinions on that. I did have my fluids analyzed at Allison service center and everything...

    The trucks were getting some air today. Maybe a drive too....

    m151 3-color camo pattern

    Very nice! I'm going to do my 151 some day...can't decide on camo or USMC green.
