I think the biggest roadblock to the shifter box removal is Amy's idiotic decision to use a bolt through the top and a nut from the bottom, no scrapper is going to take the time to put two guys on a truck, one up.one down, to remove the boxes without damage. $2.00 in 4 rivet nuts should have...
So crime and traffic is so low in that county that the county mounties have to resort to fishing trips and tickets like this? Glad he made it home safe at the end of his shift! I mean, it was a military surplus truck, he could have cut his finger on it and got tetanus. Public servant of...
I've seen the 4speed LED gear shift indicators on ebay, would the positions from your quadrant plate be different from the A2 shifter assy? The quadrant plate in the A2 is arc-shaped, with spring loaded detent in the gear shift shaft. I looked in the -24P-1, no part number is given for the...
Huh. If you have a CAD file, having some gear selector quadrants water jet cut in 4140 chrome moly steel, then plated, sold with some hollow rivets might be a solution for the market.
I looked at a Land Rover 110 Defender fold down bench seat to bolt in the cargo bed for temporary/limited use.
It is still going to need some engineering under the tunnel for bolting it in and mounting restraint systems, but those won't help in a rollover. Short of a steel tubing H1/GMV...
I thought about trying those aluminum brazing sticks you use with a propane or MAPP gas torch, using a piece of copper plate on the backside to keep the puddle in the hole.
What do they have, RDF trucks driving around neighborhoods like the Gestapo searching for OSS spy radio transmissions?
I was in the HHC Heavy Mortar Plt Fire Direction Center, handled radios all the time, but have difficulty memorizing stuff these days to take the test. I can remember...
Sometimes operating on a common push at weekend events is more convenient than running WD-1 and TA-312s to each truck or Bivouac site to disseminate event information, pass on messages, alert for lost kids/dogs. etc
The 65lb RT-524/VRC-12, I hated those things, they broke all the time.
Off...
I saw somebody used civilian H1 wiper blades and arm assemblies on his .mil rig, was pricey but the quick clip blade replacements makes it worth it, although Tobash's alteration is simple yet brilliant.
Russ, that truck has a broken Left Front Control Arm suspension spring, Photos 7 & 23, see it sagging on that front corner? Probably an PFC driving it like he stole it. You have to have a spring compressor to compress the replacement stout armor truck spring enough for the control arms to go...
Wouldn't it have to meet all the current EPA regulations? Its a shame, I like the turbo diesel Toyota HiLux but No Joy on those either. An M715 with a turbo diesel engine! Wonder if a GEP 6.5l Turbo would fit under the hood?
Its amazing that truck had the same 1 1/4ton rating as the A0 HMMWV.
welcome to the party, pal!
CARC, just because it has CARC paint doesn't mean it has been through a factory thorough overall. We had our active duty vehicles repainted by Post Support BN or the civilian maintenance shop every couple or three years. The Vehicle should have a rebuild/overhaul...
Here's my original 1995-mfg M1025A2 GMV showing the frame front without the electric Warn Series 9 winch, frame extensions or winch/bumper plate, you can see the squarish tube bottom angled brackets.
NATO Camo 1987 A0 Truck shows the frame extensions installed but with a civilian skid/winch...
OIF1-5 there was a lot of improvisation arming and hillbilly armoring all sorts of HMMWVs for convoy escort duties, using issue M6 later M7 Weapons Mounts as well as Bn HHC Maintenance mfg mounts with and without chicken shields.
