    200 amp alternator question

    That looks like the 100amp not the 200.

    Nice truck and welcome to the madness. Looks like you made a very important safety upgrade to have all matching rims with radials all the same size! Those 8 bolt bias tires are very old.

    At last she is arrived.

    Welcome to the club! Truck looks very nice! I see you have the a/c unit in the back? Can you post more pictures of the unit and how it is mounted as I am thinking of doing the same.

    M998 passenger side parking brake cable replacement "CLIP"

    maybe the clamp and tape act like a bump stop so it can't be pulled off easily. Acts like a sliding mechanical lock. The hmmwv locking brake handles can be easily found. I have seen them range from $50-$100

    M998 passenger side parking brake cable replacement "CLIP"

    That gizmo was the intern solution to the non locking parking brake. Not sure of tape or hose clamp? I bumped my parking brake installing radio trays. Truck rolled backwards even here in flat land. Minor scrape on wife's suv bumper. Very easy to knock forward. Locking parking brake handle is...

    Newbie looking for help on HMMWV research/buying

    Since you are Close to Albany in Ga, Gp is selling later model a2 trucks with 6.5 and 4 speed. Expect to pay a premium but if it is in your price range, you will be starting way ahead. Also if slantbacks is a preference, then those USMC units are the only real source of slantbacks being sold...

    M116A3 lugnut size

    Yes on nuts, 7/8 hex., 9/16-18 thread. Very Common in any parts store. Ask for lug nuts for an 82 chevy C20 3/4 ton pick up. Not sure on studs.

    Gun Ring Parts ID

    The 3 leg set with 2 of them with plates look like lws set up. The 2 with plates look m939 specific for the front of the cab by the door hinge as the legs in the back use u bolts through the cab.

    M939 LWS Shield Dimensions

    I am not sure if the lws is different than the hmmwv ones so YMMV. I suspect many flavors have been fielded.

    Goodyear MT/R Tires Safety Message

    My thoughts are that the low air pressures originally recommended are not realistic for city/highway. These tires need to be going down the highway at a min of 30psi + with loads at least 35psi+. The lower pressure makes for more heat with flexing and not good things happen. If tires are not...

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

    My guess would be how fast omv can implement and how they will handle it. Again a guess on my part but not sure if regular dmv's will do it or whether it will be handled in Baton Rouge with Special and Prestige Plate unit like vin stencil. All that will have to be worked out by them. If your...

    Who is handling the general surplus now that GL is out?

    I was at a location doing a pick up when I asked if I could wander and look at some stuff. I was talking to a serviceman who gave me the thumbs up. He asked me if I was interested? I said I would like to see when they come up. A few minutes later, a senior person with a zillion stripes and...
