    Mile Marker Winch Wiring Plug Number

    see this thread for the manual which has the part numbers. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?151818-Assistance-installing-Mile-Marker I ordered from Mile marker direct. Use the mile marker part numbers when talking to them not the nsn or military part numbers. I had to answer the...

    M939-A2 Battery Sudden Death

    on a 24volt system , you need to be seeing 27.8 -28.4 volts out of the alternator/charging system. Bad batteries can kill your military alternator/ voltage regulator.... Don't ask me how I know....

    M939-A2 Battery Sudden Death

    Start with the basics. Check each battery voltage individually, charge if needed, load test. It sounds like one went south and dragged the other down. Once you have 2 hot good load tested batteries, check alternator output. Just a little drop in voltage is all that it takes to ruin your day.

    LOUISIANA PROPOSED NEW LAW : HB 549 Provides for Military Surplus Motor Vehicles

    Again just my opinion but nothing specifically says no and nothing gives a green light either. Not sure if you need to travel in state or out of state. In state you might be ok but a weigh station out of state, who knows as those are revenue generating night mares... I would think the...

    LOUISIANA PROPOSED NEW LAW : HB 549 Provides for Military Surplus Motor Vehicles

    I think you mistyped. All La title transactions are a min of $75 thanks to Bobby.... :-( I concur that if you have a stencil, then you are ok as they are lifetime registrations. It was not addressed specifically by this bill. When I asked during the meetings, I don't think they knew how many...

    WTK - Do these have any value?

    The bottom 3 on left appear to be the barrel hold downs for an armament carrier. Typically not seen often. The one on bottom right is readily seen on epay.

    My new M1102 chassis trailer

    Definitely a special purpose body that was removed as it does not look like the typical generator flatbed. Just speculation of a radar or electronics package maybe water pump/steam cleaner or ........?

    M925 and Broke Water pump Belt

    I have the paper gasket for the plate if you go that far and extra copper crush washers. This is absolutely the stupidest design ever for a water pump and adjustment. I know of no other crazy mouse trap like this one...... I would have love to meet this engineer personally..... Been There done...

    How many colors has your brush guard been...

    Good to hear at least it had primer. I have seen so many things and trucks with the carc just peeling away and nothing to prep or prime underneath, just paint sprayed on bare metal.

    HMMWV Starter

    Just a fyi that I suspect you know already. The Gear reduction starters can not be used in a hmmwv because of a fitment/clearance issue. They are a better design and crank faster drawing less amps. I would suspect that there has to be a US manufacture of them out there. I believe Southern...

    Just another hmmwv build thread.

    Wow, I read the instructions and no where does it say to cheat and use a front end loader! @#!& wish I would had one when I did that.... Looking Good!

    Steel Soldiers 20th Anniversary Logo Contest!!!

    Random thoughts. I tend to add sleeve logos to Boy Scout Shirts. They are not that more expensive and give you more real estate. A flag can be easily added and the other sleeve can be a partial of one of these great previous submissions. Also, Maybe there could be more than one shirt available...

    Could someone explain tow bar differences?

    The heavy and medium/heavy weigh a considerable amount so take that into consideration. The medium is manageable weight wise. It can also be assembled in parts if by your self. The one I like the most is the square tube mtvr/lvs. You can assemble it one piece at a time puzzle style so you are...
