I haven't seen the yanmar one, but the vast majority of engines designed for generator applications have a tapered crankshaft, and very few non generator attachments use that tapered shaft seat. Most pumps and whatnot use a straight crankshaft with a keyway. diesel engines are better in...

only reasons I could see for them to burn up/fail like that is if there is a wiring issue somewhere, or if you're buying cheap chinese made crap. What voltage are you seeing on the wires going into the TDM? I find it unlikely but any chance you damaged any wires when you were installing the...

The issues that people are trying to fix on 30 year old trucks with a supplemental grounding harness is bad connections/corrosion on the existing ground points. The added harness does help if you have electrical issues, but about the same amount that going through and properly cleaning the...

This thread has a large image of the wiring diagram. It might be easier to follow the wiring in it than the regular manual. It's labeled as the ambulance, but engine wiring should all be the same...

Another option is the NO.CO 2 bank chargers. They are specifically designed that they can charge 2 12V batteries whether they are independent or if they are wired in series. I have the gen5x2 in my truck, as do several others, and it works great. https://no.co/gen5x2

I know we ran our laptops, projectors, server racks, and a lot of other equipment on the same generators that were providing the aircon and heat to the command tent. MEP 802's and MEP 804 were what we had until we got the DRASH equipment in my unit. As far as I know not a single item failed...

I very rarely see surge protectors used in conjunction with generators in civilian applications. I know some of the DRASH/HDT power distribution boxes have them built in, but that's all I've seen specific to a generator use. I have seen a few in homes, but primarily for the utility source...

Not sure about our size, but the rest of the Enforcer family of tires is manufactured in U.S.A. of foreign and domestic components. I'd imagine with it being a military contract that our sizes are also domestically produced.

it's very common for the halfshaft retaining bolts to be loose or missing coming from surplus. It's one of the first things that should be checked for that very reason. I know my truck they were all there and snug, but definitely not properly tightened. I don't know if you do youtube at all...

I found that Gemini Lifts has model numbers for 2 post lifts that are GPO-10A and GPO-9A, so the GPO-12 does match their model numbering system. Other than that though I'm not any help. EDIT: found a picture on Ironplanet of a GP10A that has the model/serial sticker, and while it's pretty...

I should have said it as "non-military wheels and tires" not just tires for the amount of weight reduced. Just the tires themselves will only be a few pounds difference, but likely to be more round.

There is going to be a very noticeable difference between military and non military, simply due to the amount of weight involved. You lose about 1/3 to 1/2 of the weight by going non-military tires, and unsprung weight makes a huge difference in ride quality. The military doesn't care about...

When I got my Baja tires from them, they gave me a call to give me options for either to my house or to a freight dock. The dock was an hour away, but about $200 cheaper. I think it was about $300 for the freight for 4 tires to the dock.

I don't know about "brand new" but Feltz has the Enforcers 2020+ date code 100% tread for $350 each. With freight that would put you in the same price range. https://feltztire.com/product/37x1250r165lt-gy-enforcer-mt-hmmwv-tires-10-ply-nos/

At least they aren't made in China...

And if the grease isn't sticky enough, you can also put it in the freezer to thicken it up some more to help the rod stay in place.

Looks like the M101A3 to me.

For just rolling them around the shop a pallet jack should be more than enough. Worst case if the pallet jack doesn't fit into the gen frame properly, you put the generator onto a pallet and bolt or strap it so it stays.

I don't know of any military trailer that will fit your requirements that well. A lot of that is due to weight. The military has plenty of people to drive vehicles, and the equipment that needs transported tends to be on vehicles/trailers that are massively overbuilt and overweight for the...

I can see how that would make it worse. For mine it was because the early style rear support bracket going to the exhaust stud kept breaking off the exhaust stud due to the manifold not being flat compared to the block, and thus putting uneven stress on the stud. Add to that the 200A unit and...
