When I first glanced at the thumbnails, it looked like they were in your living room... I was thinking there is a guy with priorities.

Legislative cheat-sheet: Step 1: Despite probably being a lawyer, pass poorly worded text into law which is overly broad and has dubious and unproven societal value. Step 2: Reassure people who can read English that the law will only be applied "when it makes sense", not as it is written, or...

Well for press-fit: NSN 5340-00-933-3752 Mfg # CAPlugs B-714 10mm deep, 27mm diameter OD They also make the threaded ones judging by their catalog.

... until the next guy decides to read the law differently

Someone PM'd me, I guess I forgot to mention: VAA - solid red & solid black (at least on mine!). Sorry I don't remember which are which. The one pulled negative should be tx on the VAA. Harmless to try both ways. The pins are adjacent (same row). Radio - 13 rx & 15 tx. Looking at the radio in...

I agree with you 100% about all that. My reading of this was that he wanted a poser rally truck as in he did not intend to race the dakar and jump it 20 feet off sand dunes. Not that he wanted something just for show / looks. Maybe he'll clarify.

I've just never heard anyone advocate against safety equipment for an off-road application in a non-ironic fashion before. I think my outlook is more the roll cage is more impractical than it is unwarranted or undesired. I sure desire one. Stuff happens. Especially in snow.

Think of all the time you can save by not wearing a seatbelt when you learn to drive perfectly too. I wonder what's up with all the gear UTV drivers wear. They must still be practicing I guess.

When your cab gets too heavy to tip because of the roll cage, you might look at the armor setup for inspiration. IIRC they had to go to dual-ram to tip the weight. You might find this old thread relevant too, https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?149191-LMTV-MV-Safety-Improvements

Did you hook it up to RS-232 as yet? Curious how this turns out.

That's really nice. Very tidy!

This is how it starts. Then next thing you know...

So funny enough I went to buy a US Tower TMM-541SS this morning and imagine my surprise when HRO quoted me $8900! When I looked at them not 2 years ago they were like $2900. The rumor on eham/etc is that US Tower is now a big military / GSA supplier and so they jacked everything up to Uncle...

If someone wants to get me a copy of the ISO of the CD they burned him, I'll see what I can do. Technology is my profession. IIRC the files are SGML internally and then it renders them to PDF after the fact. There are copies of the viewer floating around. I think 2.8 might be the latest one I...

https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/501486 Note the street price is quite a bit lower than that. It also does not include a screen, that's what I was saying, it works with an existing Garmin nav so you don't have to have two things in the cab. I guess some people would see that as a feature or a...

I have the garmin setup, transmits video to the nav unit, sitting here waiting to be installed on a LMTV. Looks good when I test it.

The manual's opinion of "ALE NOT INSTALLED" is that it's a major fault and the entire thing needs to go in for repair. That says to me you have a problem on one of the boards or they are not communicating, which seems to bear out because from a factory fresh start you should be able to get into...

What I really meant is does anyone know a part # of a cross-ref, the last time I checked the parts spreadsheet it wasn't in there. If it's so common I can walk one into NAPA though and frown at them until they give me another one I'll do that.

Anyone know where replacement banjo bolts come from? The banjo bolt fairy? I need one.

This is truly the holy grail of FMTV ownership...
