    LMTV FMTV Exhaust Brake Questions?

    I think Sean Filler did one on his truck which if I remember correctly was an A0. He did videos on the install (45) Abel LMTV build part 112 (Pacbrake PXRB CAT 3116 mechanical install) - YouTube

    Shop Equipment, Welding (SEW) Trailer - Aluminum

    Thats thing is awesome. I have been watching them on GP and the prices are finally starting to come down enough I may try and grab one. Did you get yours from auction or private. It looks pretty clean compared to most of the auction stuff.

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    I carry 4 of these in my Jeep in the carry case. They fold pretty thin. I will try and get a measurement for you if that helps. I have had these for over 8 years and used the heck out of them and they have held up well. Amazon.com : Front Runner Expander Camping Chair, Lightweight, Polyester...

    The next Project an ASMH

    Would you have a use for one of these for this project (NSN 3940-00-899-1352). I live in Northern California and have one of these taking up space. I don't have a use for it, but the price was right so I bought it until I could find a use for it or a good home. Let me know and we can figure out...

    Air condition dash vents

    That looks very similar to the LMTV vents. I will look up the link. I think they were bus parts. Try looking at the below link. louver - Don Brown Bus Parts

    Complete newbie question about trailers for hauling vehicles and equipment

    Can you start with the container at the edge of the road at your property or is it off the beaten path enough. You could always move the container out in the property later. Least the tractor would be onsite and not require trailering just to work out there.

    Complete newbie question about trailers for hauling vehicles and equipment

    Why not haul the 20 ft container to your property? Or better yet have a larger one delivered?

    My M149 Water Buffalo. What do you do with yours?

    probably great...lower volume, but higher pressure. Although not sure if a pressure washer would need to have some pressure behind it to feed into the machine or if it has a pumping suction that would draw it into the pressure washer pump

    My M149 Water Buffalo. What do you do with yours?

    That really is a nice looking M149. I mounted a small 1" water pump on one fender and just throw the suction hose in the tank lid. Works great for towing around to my burn piles on my property

    Replacing the tires

    and a BFH (big freakin hammer!)....more labor than difficulty in this process. Busting off the old ones is the time consuming part, but if you have a forklift that can make that issue a moot point. Using nothing but a BFH and pry bar, it took me about 1 hour per tire to get them changed over.

    GovPlanet hours?

    You call the GP number....go through their menu and hit the number for pick up info. just tell them you need to schedule a pickup for your item number, and they pull it up and let you know the details. Once there, talk to the people there and see if you need to schedule one or if they are okay...

    GovPlanet hours?

    You will need to call GP on Tuesday and get an appointment to pick it up and then they will give you hours of operation. I have never been to that particular location, and they may be cool with you just showing up, but some locations will not allow walk up pick ups

    Taking LMTV home | 1200mi road trip TX to NC

    Sounds like a fun trip. Hope all goes well and keep us posted (a few pics would be great as well). Have you mapped out SS members along that route just in case you run into issues?

    Question on trailer parts. Maybe M1061?

    Air over hydo to electric over hydro brakes is not very difficult to do and will run you less than $1000 for all the parts needed to make the swap. Definitely much cheaper than replacing axles/tires. Parts for that system are probably interchangeable with most large military trailers and should...

    GP sold $37k HMMWV, what am I missing?

    Keep in mind that California stupid money also comes into play. That same truck if sold in Georgia probably would have only reached the mid twenties. I watch all kinds of stuff and vehicles. Everything east of Las Vegas and north of the Oregon border usually sells much cheaper than the vehicles...
