    M101A2/3 trailer adjustable lunette ring question

    About seven plus years ago I modified my lunette ring on my M101A2 trailer. I needed it to be adjustable so I got all the parts necessary and cut off the old ring. It's been a great mod then yesterday on flebay I find this tan unit amd it's exactly the same setup I made. I had no clue the...

    ARGH! FlexPlate Advice Please...

    Did you properly shim the starter when you installed the transmission? Are the two bolts on the starter in place along with the rear mount? When you pull the tranny and pull the starter I would inspect it and bench test it. Misalignment is the main cause of flywheel teeth issues. Mark

    Transmission ATF drain plug location

    You could also buy a deeper pan with cooling fins and a drain plug. This will also add two more quarts of tranny fuild to the mix. Mark

    Transmission ATF drain plug location

    Put a drain pan under there and loosen one of the transmission fluid lines a bit and you can get out what you need to from there. A vampire leak will cause you to lose fluid as it goes places you don't want it to go. My vampire leak turned my air filter into an oil bath system. Mark

    My wife is going to kill me... :D

    Well if his wife has a brother that would help... I'm just saying. LoL I have to wonder if the OP realizes that most of us are on her side in the hopes all his military gear would sell for cheap.

    New Coolant Leak

    Well glad you found out it seems to be a non issue. I'm sure that type of thing would get your blood pressure up as I know mine would. Mark

    M1123A2 engine noise while traveling on highway.

    After listening to the video it sounds like you are only in 2nd gear and the fan should stay on like 2 min. Try shifting the gears manually and see if you are shifting properly. Mark

    Humvee glow plugs

    If the plugs burn out over time I believe you have a much better chance pulling them without issue then if the box fails and cooks them. You would be insane to use anything but the mil spec plugs. Mark

    Arrival of 2nd HMMWV M1151A1

    P People are getting $8500+ for a good condition slant back with roof these days. Big money. Now a roof with the full turret setup by itself is worth about the same. Mark

    Humvee glow plugs

    It's a toss up if all will come out without issue. I would pull them on a hot motor. It may help with the removal. First three front of truck to rear on drivers side I pull from underneath. First three from pass side removal from up top. Pull the air filter assembly to make room. Last plugs...

    My wife is going to kill me... :D

    Well since your ultimate demise is imminent might I suggest you gift the offending gensets to the members of this site to be raffled off. It would be looked upon as a kind act and frankly you need all the help you can get. Members here would give an outpouring of gratitude and sympathy in...
