All the recently refurbished M149A2 trailers have this lunette setup. A bunch that have recently sold at auction have them, so it's not a one-off thing. Odd, none the less.

Everyone, This is going to be one of my threads documenting my fix-ups! M149A2 this time. I usually already have the item in my possession in had before making a thread & already started doing something, but in this case am doing it before in hopes I can get some input. Tires and...

The cover is easy to take off. Remove it & run it. But if you replaced that lower well nut with the original type one, it's possible it failed already. They can't be more than a little past hand tight, & if they rotate at all in the hole the seem to leak. But none the less, removing the cover to...

Working on these when they are on the floor is not fun. I was real soar the next few days! The trailer mounted one can be a bit annoying at times for it's own reasons but I think I'd rather that. Unfortunately, not lift for me to use. Maybe one day. I thought about cutting the hole bigger, but...

It will need some love but has good bones. Plan to make my own thread on it once I go get it next week. It's all paid for and pickup is set.

Nice work. I finally just got one after trying to get one at a good deal for a few years now. Not sure I will go as in depth as you did to make it look nice but good information here!

Added a few more details to post #21. Put a new cover & gasket on the outlet. The gasket was falling apart. Cover hinges were shot. Found nice ones for less than $5 to my door the next day with all hardware & gaskets. I got enough to do all the ones on my generators. Outlet cover -...

After getting the tank back in, I just neatened up. I used mostly new hardware when putting the panels back on. Found a great source for them on eBay in 50 counts for cheap, shipped. I also put some terminal covers on the battery connections & proper color coded heat shrink wrap on the cable...

Long post inbound, standby.... Just wrapped up what I hope is the last of any major work for this unit! Started by removing the top panels, and the one side panel so I could replace the fuel return lines & the fuel feed line with the incorrect fitting. Even with the side panel removed...

Generator is still running good & strong! :giggle: Just wanted to share in this thread something I posted on my YouTube channel that has to do with the MEP 802A & 803A; I know it's not directly related to this unit but I have kept up for many years with this thread & everything I have...

Going to do this upgrade as well; Brass Tee Upgrade - https://ebay.us/9FQoXh Replacement fuel return line - https://ebay.us/j6ICBM

So, I'm thinking what might have happened with this is that the nut may be getting a little hung up by the metal enclosure of the generator and making the well nut not seat properly. That hole is not big enough to work in. I ran into this on another MEP 802A that I am working on. I still am...

Started working on this again. Hopefully, over this long weekend, it will be 100% done! Will post an update with details & pictures when I am finished. Took this little video while working on it;

I also could bring anything that is listed on my eBay store. You can get there from my website in my signature.

Brand new FMTV steering linkage with tie rods.

HMMWV soft doors. Drivers side front and passenger rear (I think?). As usual, they need stitching but everything else is there and good.

HMMWV highback seats. Used but in serviceable condition.

It's in my calendar & I'm going to plan on going w/ my M1078.

Didn't know there was a rally here in Texas.

I know this is an old thread... Found this by mistake! I had plans to do this but didn't know it needed to have work done on the inside. Thank you. I wanted to keep the OEM whip and tune it for dual band HAM use. Seems I would do basically the same thing as you are showing here, but cut the...
