    not sure on what to advise as I have not had your issue. Others might chime in but maybe take off and bring to an old school radiator shop to make sure there is no blockage or internal damage?

    Welcome to the madness and hang on ;-) Is your cooler leaking? These trucks already come with a stout cooler/heat exchanger. There is also a spin on t-filter easy to change under the hood in addition to the one in the pan.

    M101A2/A3 Trailer failure warning and PM recommendation

    Years ago when I had replaced the shock and some of the nylon link bushings I had found some loose but not as bad as your situation. I would recommend you replace the nuts and install grade c or 8 prevailing locking torque nuts.

    Softer Springs

    I was thinking plain ole m998 . Mine rides very comfortable but we do not have rocks or hills for that matter in the southern part of the banana republic for me to get crazy with. I have a winch on the front and a Tire carrier in the back and i do I feel some of the weight is leveled out.

    Softer Springs

    Do the m1123 use the same spring as the plain ole m998? Maybe that could be the solution?

    Hi. Have a quick question and assistance

    M1082 w/600 Gal Alum Liq Storage Tank

    I don't think any mk105 have been released into the wild. Very few m796 have been surplused in the last few years. They could probably get m1061's. 600g Fuel pods come up semi regularly.

    Technical Manual Request

    What model of truck? This might be what you are looking for that I posted: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/smi-9-2320-387-14-p-1-l-operation-maintenance-and-repair-parts-m1151-m1152.159452/

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Past full confirms your suspicions imho. Change oil filter and reseal is a good plan. Very unlikely housing is cracked.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    If the truck had been idled more than ran, the oil gets "sooty" and feels thinner. Very common for diesel engines. The oil level on the dipstick would help determine if Diesel is getting in there as it should be past full if so. Is your oil filter adapter leaking or was it removed from the Engine?

    Where to buy bridge plate numbers?

    these folks sell the complete deal. I only have a few numbers. Army 6X6 parts.

    HMMWV Troop Seats/Cargo rails

    I think you have the right idea. My original 2 man had only one aluminum "stock" reinforcement and the rest had been home made out of steel stock with holes drilled. Might be way cheaper than $6.20 each and no reason to need the beveled edges.

    Where to buy bridge plate numbers?

    Rick Larson used to carry the number decals/stickers so you could refresh the numbers on old plates. Can't say I have see anyone making repro but yes, it would work just fine out of another material. They are relatively thin and typically hold 2 or 3 numbers per side.

    What numbers do you need? I might have spares.

    Alternator V-Belts rattling. Should I replace?

    To determine if you have a matched set. Look at the mfg code of the production normally after the part numbers. For example gates will have numbers/letters. I have seen some brands having the same numbers others having sequential that tells you the 2 pieces were cut side by side from the same...
