    Humvee floor mats

    My first privately owned HMMWV came with a thick black "fall mat" a thick rubber mat used in hospitals, assisted care, etc to help protect patients if they fall out of bed. Example in Black or Light Brown (not a bad complement to Tan686) 36x60x0.5", 8 year warranty: 3' X 5' Bedside Fall...

    Military Cutoff Disconnect Switch HMMWV Battery

    I scanned the 57K6230 instructions into PDF but I can't post into the MWO thread in the TM section.

    Military Cutoff Disconnect Switch HMMWV Battery

    BTW: TruckGuy and I are working on getting the label/instruction plates for the military 57K6230 Battery Cutoff Switch Kit replicated if anybody else is trying to make their own kit from the Kissling 35.553 Switch and self scrounged parts instead of paying $400-850 for the packaged AMG kit...

    Military Cutoff Disconnect Switch HMMWV Battery

    The old Ranger Land Rover Defender RSOV Ranger Special Operations Vehicle used a Cole-Hersee M-750 rotary battery disconnect switch that allows you to cut power from either 12v, 24v or both: Cole Hersee Standard Battery Switch [M-750-BP] (delawarepaddlesports.com) Cole Hersee also makes a...

    What is the function of this component inside the TOW missile trucks

    The Special Forces GMV Humvees repurposed the bottom bracket under the flange mount to hold a twin 7.62mm 200rd Ammo Can, for the Navigator's M240 on swing arm mount and cradle:

    Repurpose Duke CIED Antenna to Ham Radio

    Great timing, I scored an AN/VRC-110 power amp (and 110v to 28v power amp) for $200 locally, to use with my TCA PRC-152(U/V) radio. This antenna project of yours is the answer for proper antenna to cover the bandwidth. I want to use it both on a GMV as well as a base station in the house...

    6.5l NA GEP Engine Intake Manifold Hardware

    Have any of you experience removing the Intake Manifold on the 6.5l NA GEP engine block trucks? The studs and bolts I have a chart for what goes where and what needs teflon pipe sealant and what needs Loctite 272. But one of the metric bolts is shorter than the others. I'm worried I...

    Niehoff 100amp 14VDC/28VDC N1505-1 Dual Amp Alternator on M1025A2-Ground Strap?

    Hello, I am no mechanic, only a parts changer that can read the TMs and perform minor tasks. Motorpool Gremlins hit me pretty bad in April, the alternator went, melted the red rubber boot, smoked, and killed the Smart Start Box. While investigating I discovered this truck actually been using...

    Slantback roof insulation, what works best?

    I made templates for the 5 M10XX roof insulation pieces using the remnant insulation left stuck on my roof. I have a foam saw (like a sabre saw with a bread knife blade riding up and down in a U shaped sleeve with just the teeth exposed) to cut the DB Engineering 1" vinyl faced foam.

    current SF-97 turnaround times?

    Bump, Any updates on SF97 clearance times? I bought one truck end of October, one first week November. The EUC for the November truck cleared before the October truck. Had them picked up by jobbers in first two weeks of March. Still waiting on the SF97s.

    My 1986 M1026 I was signed for on active duty had the Warn electric winch and 60amp alternator, never had any problems.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    That is rubber grommet/retainer bracket for the radio power cable pass-through into the transmission hump then into your battery box. There are just the 3 holes (2 small bolt holes, 1 large for the grommet body), you need to reach under the transmission hump with a wrench to hold the nut and...

    after 5 years of fighting dla.... WE WIN

    DLA=Defense Logistics Agency I was wondering why the Marines are able to pay a contractor to remove the restricted armor, commo and armament parts to be sold as scrap separately from the HMMWV, but all the US Army HMMWVs, are destroyed by a contractor, paid by US Taxpayer money, then all sold...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I've been looking for a solution like this for awhile, just for the safety aspect instead of the GI 60w incandescant bulbs, thank you.

    Stanadyne DB2 Injection Pump Throttle Valve O Rings Replacement: Throttle Shaft Removal?

    I'm hoping I can remove the throttle shaft out the driver side without removing the governor/guide pin, the governor on spring still moves front to rear, so engaging the notch again on re install "should" not be a problem. I saw on BoobTube somebody altering the governor rotations to coax more...

    Stanadyne DB2 Injection Pump Throttle Valve O Rings Replacement: Throttle Shaft Removal?

    That drawing covers both 6.2l NA TH400 3speed and 6.5l NA & Turbo 4L80E 4 Speed. Instructions refer to inset bubble pics with specific instructions that differ between the 3 drivetrains. I was hoping somebody here had already done this, could verify removing that removing Allen screw Part...

    Stanadyne DB2 Injection Pump Throttle Valve O Rings Replacement: Throttle Shaft Removal?

    I bought mine from Jegs last fall with a 20% off coupon. It comes disassembled, mine had some faults in construction, the 4 position quadrants on the lower legs were welded on wrong, the cross way support strut was too narrow to lock into the notches. I cut the welds, pried them off with a...
