The BIG problem is that some hmmvws ARE STREET LEGAL, these are the ones sold by the Marines some years ago, this is the bunch that pi$$ed of gm which in turn got the road worthy hmmvw sales stopped, after this ONLY crunched hmmvws were sold, NOW gp got the word that a lot of hmmvws were going...
You might want to look into Russian military vehicles, the have used some sort of auxiliary braking for a long time, even on there big 12 cyl. multi.
Another idea for the auto trans trucks, is to install a retarder, basically just replace the twin vane converter with a four vane converter (a...
Guys thank you for the leads but I now have a NON OE mechanical oil pressure gauge to be installed tomorrow, I am DONE with this European parts crap used on a US MILITARY VEHICLE if I can help it, I thought I had the turn signal issue fixed using a dp/dt/co switch, I now have 4 corner turn...
A minute or so, does not take a lot of time to look at something to get a grasp of the situation, the issues just pop out at you, especially if you KNOW HOW TO READ SO YOU CAN READ TMs..
The sender is a common part to a lot of MB engines, the reason it is SO expensive is that it has MB stamped on it and believe it or not, this is the first time that I have NOT found a after market replacement, MB must have a lock on the whole sender just like most MB parts.
Also I did not see any SAFETY CHAINS, If you read the -10 for a mk48/mk15a1, you will see that the travel speed is way down for a loaded recovery, as far as hauling a$$ with just the m48 fpu, the driver NEEDS to get down on his knees and thank GOD that he did not kill somebody or himself, in the...
This is because STEEL SOLDIERS is a INTERNET site that is designed to be accessed from a computer with some access from phones, it is NOT a phone app with some access from the computer. try going on the internet and searching from a computer , you will find it is a lot easier.
Well it has come to the point of the oil pressure sender, I AM NOT GOING TO PAY $225 for a MB sender, screw that, I hunted and found a mini mechanical oil pressure gauge (1 1/2") that is going to be installed. the price for a 3 gauge set for $34, if I can find a single gauge unit, great if not...
NOT safe but can be done in a have to, the only reason it is NOT in the -10 is because the writers of the -10 did not think anyone was DUMB enough to try to tow a HEMMT down the road with a 1008. I know a member that towed a 4 wheel HEMMT trailer about 600 miles from hood with his wife's...
That was way it was done in vn, only we ran though at speed, is we slowdown or stopped at certain places, there was a good chance we would start taking rounds, which means that somebody might get hit or dead, better them and there stupid cows, or there rattle trap vehicles then us.
Ken,
It takes GREAT effort to to keep the KGR on top, at times it is NOT worth the energy, being the number of truck owners asking -10 questions lately, I have come to the conclusion that I am not going to waste my time on trying to KEEP the KGR up front, if someone does not like my -10...
It is AMASSING what can be found in the -10 ( operators manual), EVEN neat stuff like "HOW TO TOW THE TRUCK", it is a wonder some can even find the start switch.
This WILL NOT WORK, I think everybody who has had stuck supports tried this FIRST and had to find another way to get them apart because they are the same as welded.
