    Broken nut on regulator

    My bad. On the info. It’s a 72 Dodge Dart w 225 slant 6 but been modified to look like an amc hornet. With a 6.5 non turbo 200a charging system.

    Putting IP back in and Timing Refresher

    I replaced the IP on my Duce several years ago. Aligning all the marks before tightening everything down was less of a challenge than getting to the TDC mark by my self. Clicking the motor to get it close than using another tool to spin the motor to the correct spot. No space for a breaker bar...

    Broken nut on regulator

    Was doing some maintenance on the funvee trying to figure out a failure to charge and found the nut on the connector to the voltage regulator was split and letting the plug out. Anyone got a part number ? Or a idea of a replacement that could be sourced from another panel ? I can’t believe that...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    I got my m1123 registered using dirt legal. Perm on road plates , no restrictions. Plates expire before me. No regrets.

    In Search of 9.00x20 Tires for M211

    Any 9.20 tires will work on the 211. Contact csm tires they have good deals. The only difference from all other tires from the 211 to the m35 to the a2 are all the same. The only difference was the m135 that had a different offset on the rims. They were fitted with the 11x20 tires.

    Tire talk

    if your using the original rims 12 or 24 bolt. Those are 16.5 rims. Almost NOBODY sells 16.5. 16 or 17 , easy going , and finding nice rims either the correct offset. Not as easy without spending $$$$

    If anyone in the San Diego county area is familiar with the M800 series

    Sometimes those starters get “stuck” and won’t engage other than a loud click. Or ( this would be bad ) the motor is locked up for some reason. Try and rotate the motor. See if it spins, if it doesn’t than pull the injectors to verify the cylinder isn’t full of liquid.

    HMMWV in limp mode no trans light

    Could have been there was something else connected to the 12v supply. Or they figured if they disabled the trans that they could get rid of it and got a new tactical vehicle. ??

    Starting problem

    Does it have a keyed start switch or a push button ? , I’m only familiar with the a2 that has a power switch and the push button start. I’ve seen modified ones that use a key switch to control both functions. More info is always needed

    Pieces and parts for IP rebuild

    I don’t think I’ve seen anyone rebuild the ip , usually it’s just replace the gaskets or replace what had failed. If your really adventurous you might replace the bearings or the springs on the advance. Other than that ?? I have like 5 spares , I had more but just took them apart for “ how does...

    Push button headlight switch testing.

    Just curious , how do you have a couple of 24v push button switches but no truck to put them in to test ? I have always wanted a couple just never could find one I wanted to spend that kind of money on. Having said that🥲 I have several old style switch’s and when I tested them I just hooked them...
