    M85 Laundry Trailers Home!

    Pellerin Milnor was the manufacturer for some of those commercial washer and driers. They have a plant in Kenner, LA . Might be worth a call. I posted the tm's for both laundry trailers here on ss trailer section.

    M1151a1 tailgate mystery brackets

    The rear cip panel just slides into the groves from top to bottom so it can be easily removed to access the tailgate and bed on a hmmwv.

    Antenna Mounting

    I was looking at the picture and got the rear and side view mixed up.

    Antenna Mounting

    The plate is a simple affair and can be easily made with some aluminum or steel scarps and drill the holes through. The OE is roughly 5 x 3 with a cut out.

    Antenna Mounting

    The riser pictured in the bed is typically on slant backs. There is also rear fender top mounted antenna towers if you want it higher. I have seen the rear bed cover modified with 4 bolt holes and the center cut out to use the antenna tower with the cover on. I have driver's side antenna towers...

    Antenna Mounting

    That is a very interesting way to use the mount. It typically has the plate on the side fender and the mount to the rear and the offset to the right or left on top of the mount.

    M1061a1 restoration

    Water got in from the air hose gladhand being exposed open is my guess. Open air tank petcock and apply brakes to blow more crud out.

    M998 Brake Issues

    Part of this trouble shooting sequence would be to bleed the brakes. Just unplugging the switch will not remove air or indicate the master cyl is bypassing. Nothing special to this being a hmmwv in standard brake troubleshooting just like any vehichle. We are not working on the hydroboost side...

    M998 Brake Issues

    Master cylinder internally bypassing. Suspect master cyl is what I would troubleshoot.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Easy to find. You can use the square or half moon lock pins. Home depot, Lowes, tractor Supply. OE also uses a metal wire rope crimped on both ends on to the pin assembly so it does not get misplaced. Also easy to make with stuff from Home Depot or lowes. I also had another pin at the ratchet...

    M1123 Power Loss

    Green stick is a water separator. I would replace also while open. Clearly the filter was not changed and everything else done would be suspect and needs to be verified. I would give him the bill for the filter and separator and demand a refund plus labor.
