    Lowering a M149A2 Water Buffalo Trailer??

    Those are the rims I was referring to. Have not seen any show up. 400 gallons, no baffles, uneven road or offload with private 18 year old etc... Seen many rollover water buffalos on the auctions. Sometimes just the tanks are auctioned nos.

    Lowering a M149A2 Water Buffalo Trailer??

    Specs I found on the interwebs say 41.2 for the 900x20. The bolt pattern looks right but need to know more about the rims and tires. Also need to see the weight rating to make sure you are safe. Cool rim if 20 inch and one piece, folks around here would gobble them up. The military has gone to...

    Lowering a M149A2 Water Buffalo Trailer??

    The easiest thing to do if just low speed and not on the highway is to dual the tires. In the first sandbox, that was a field modification to make them more stable and traction in sand. Just need to use the appropriate thimbles and outer nuts with 2 more rims flipped dish in. These rims and...

    M105 side rail parts on M101a3

    I believe the stakes are wider pockets on the 105 and would not fit the narrower m101. Definitely taller on the m105 but can be cut shorter

    Trailer jack shear pins

    Might look at bulldog as they make many on the civy side. Find one that looks like it and find a parts schematic for it. Once you id. E trailer or croft might have it?

    I just inherited a bundle of AN/VRC goodies!

    It is the lower full size tray that fits under the full size upper tray. It makes a double stack. The full size upper Tray sits on top of the lower tray with a u bracket and bolts underneath the top tray. Used with many models of radios. Rt524, sincgars, and some of the harris that replaced...

    Gasket makers

    Yes, But many folks use it as a universal rtv. It seems it must be the to go to item for the military as my M923 & m998 only have red on anything that has been "serviced" . My 2 differentials were leaking on the m998 from the red rtv but to be honest it looked like it had been gooped on. Clean...

    Gasket makers

    For differentials and other applications with gear oil, Permatex makes a specific rtv, Others will work that are universal but worth getting this one. YMMV https://www.permatex.com/products/gasketing/speciality-gasket-makers/permatex-gear-oil-rtv-gasket-maker-3-oz/

    The hmmwv angle mounts and radio tray should be easy to flip as they are in demand.

    Caution about Iron Planet/Gov Planet HMMWV's

    Curious to why use dexcool? These trucks use plain ole school green. Dexcool does not do well with other coolants. Even repeated flushing does not gurantee 100% removal of every cranny...

    HMMWV problems

    Probably neither. Possibly the problem is in the glow plugs or the electronics in that system. Many threads on here on the control boxes and manually bypass. I would start with downloading and reading the tm"s ( technical manuals) here on SS. There are trouble shooting flow charts specifically...

    Unknown wires on backside of + terminal.

    Radio or electronic gizmos that were removed at demil. If so should probably be removed.

    Batteries Blew Up & Caused A Fire

    If you can negotiate to keep the truck, the process is not difficult in La. I bought back my "wrecked" tahoe for a sum subtracted from the settlement. The title and registration is cancelled and marked salvage. You make repairs to make it road worthy, bring to LSP for inspection. Basically...
