There are two termination resistors - one is near the engine ECM, and the other is below the dash on the passenger side. They are 3-pin Deutsch termination resistor connectors: https://mypartsuniverse.com/products/deutsch-dt06-3s-p006-dt3-resistor-f The idiot light panel runs off the MMDC...

Interesting that they use the peak and hold PWM control style. I wonder if these low impedance solenoids are considered a more reliable component. The consumer side of things - injectors and most valve body control solenoids in automotive - are generally high impedance since the late 1990's...

Maybe it only changes to the 50/50 PWM scheme at a specific throttle percentage? :unsure: Definitely scope time.

In cold weather you have to manually vent the wheel valves or they can leak and not hold pressure - remove the screws from the wheel valve covers. If the valves are in good condition they generally work down to below 0 degrees. But old diaphragms may be adversely affected at higher temps due...

Aaaaaannnnndddd - now you see why I run four 6TAGM's. Two batteries work in a *perfect* world. They even work in a slightly imperfect world. They are better for the wimpy 100A alternator - no question. And two AGM's are better than 2 flooded cells. But if you lose a battery - it goes short...

Yes the AGM's are 1150 CCA each. And they aren't nearly as affected by cold temps as the flooded batteries or the lithium batteries. The FMTV's had arctic battery heating kits as optional accessories - basically unnecessary with the AGM's.

Yeah of course the habitat is self-contained. But I can manually switch the solar over to the truck batteries if necessary and the Victron's are there to supplement the solar array. Backups and contingencies. But yes they have separate battery banks.

I don't disagree with any of those points in principle. I have contingency plans however. If I lose an alt I can drive for quite some distance on the four 6TAGM's. Further I can charge the 6TAGM's from my solar array or my diesel generator. And I have my original 260A as a spare, plus an...

Yeah - it depends on what you want and how you feel about the modifications required to get there. The 24v AC unit will draw near 40A at full tilt...... If you want to run four 6TAGM's in the factory configuration for redundancy and for temperature resilience, and want to run four Victron Orion...

Well you guessed the alternator I'm running. The difficulty is the availability, the horrendous price from Niehoff, and the bracket situation. A few of them have turned up in the surplus world - mostly attached to HIMARS crate engines - but that supply has dried up for the time being along with...

The burnt look is due to the vulcanizing process of the rubber onto the wires - that's typical of that type of connector and doesn't indicate a problem in my experience. The MMDC calibrates the gauges when powered up. They "park" when powered on, not when powered off. So I don't think that's an...

The HIMARS bracket part numbers: 2920-01-585-3333, 12423692 Good luck even finding a picture of that guy. I've never seen one for sale and I've not yet even found a diagram showing it.

By the appearance of the bracket and take a look at the 14v and 28v output lug locations, the fan guard type (260 is a wire cage) and the format of the VR terminals, V-belt pulley, etc. I know what all the alternators look like since I've handled them all - it's just a learning curve thing.

Damaged threaded ground point. Clearly has been on a truck. Might work. Might be a boat anchor. Already has the lifting eye for anchor duties though!

1 - That is a bracket. It's not the only revision of the HIMARS bracket. They had problems with them cracking and they have been redesigned..... 98 lbs of alternator will do that. *edit* - that first image is the 100A alternator. Not the HIMARS bracket. The HIMARS bracket is absurdly rare -...

Yep that's the HIMARS alt. Very low production volume and very expensive. All the one's I've seen had serial numbers under 1000. They require specially reinforced brackets as they are 98 lbs. These guys claim to have one - "Call for price" usually means you don't want to know o_O...

Chinese Carquest trash. Most of the starters for sale are similarly absolute trash. If you have your original they can be rebuilt. Also check all your battery terminal connections and wire lugs, etc. If you want the starter to end all starters (I haven't tried one out on my CUCV but have used...

Which I believe is just a fancy/generic way of saying -4 ORB. Looks like ORB will work unless the o-ring chamfer isn't correct to provide the seal. Appendix B of the troubleshooting manual. Found it here...

Have you checked the transmission drain plug magnets and the scavenge line screens etc? I mean - the propensity for thrust bearing failures on these is the most obvious and likely scenario. Which would likely loosen up the clutch pack to the point where it couldn't engage even with good...

In a way that is Goodyear giving us the FO price. You want this? Your gonna PAY for our inconvenience in giving you the time of day for a price. Also given the global security situation the demand has soared, and inflation has driven up the price of transportation and raw materials - we are...
