Yes, that's correct.

This is what's in the kit and I don't think the spring you need is in it...you do the crosschecking.

Right you are, Gimp, the design of the tires for this series of vehicles is an integral part of the overall package. The low pressure, the aspect ratio (70%, which keeps the CG low), the tubeless feature for light weight should not be compromised IMHO. They were not used on any other vehicle...

James, currently produced tires that will fit include 405/70R20 and 375/75R20 (14.5-20), but the original tires were apparently designed for low pressure, 30 psi highway and 10 psi off-road, tubeless on 12 inch wide "rims" (wheels).

These are the parts needed for easy reference: Filler (part A and B): 2640-00-137-5720 Buffing solution: 2640-00-138-8324 Vulcanizing fluid: 2640-00-242-3467 Primer: 2640-00-138-8323 Cementing and vulcanizing stitcher: 5120-00-293-0392 (81349) MIL-S-45179 Based on this image, the damage is...

They are probably worth it, I have only found 1 (one) tire in two years, that wasn't mounted on another truck therefore not sold separately. This particular tire was only produced for this vehicle and fewer than 500 trucks were ever built. Tire is 16/70-20 or 16/70R20, although marked "16-20".

About a 1/4". It's like a layer was cut and the next layer below is intact.

Does anyone have experience with the tire repair procedure shown in the TM 9-2610-200-14? A couple of the tires on the 8x8 have cuts that may be repairable, they do hold air, but it would be nice if the cuts could be "healed".

For further reference see the PS mag section of the old site. Steel Soldiers :: Military Vehicles Supersite Also, the #10 wire is "fused" with the circuit breaker as shown in the original wiring diagrams.

Might as well chime in since I tested OD Iron's system a couple of years ago. The multifuel engine on my 8x8 has a higher capacity oil pump, which speeds up the time to oil pressure, less than 10 seconds after being shut down for a week, less if started within a day (engine still warm). Since I...

FMJ, I'll sell you my spare for $25.00 shipping included.....PM me if interested...

Well, it's non magnetic.

Replace it! You may end up with a major coolant leak if the fix fails....appears to be an aluminum alloy.

Same as above, but original article: Steel Soldiers :: Military Vehicles Supersite

Could be a coolant issue...looked a one I have on the bench and it's in good condition.

This may be from OD Iron's web page, downloaded it some time ago and forget.....

I would recommend that you remove the nozzle and bench test it for leaks. The fine fuel line is the feed and it has 50 or so psi on it when engine is running, the 1/4 inch line is the return. You want to make sure there is no leak via the nozzle into the intake, where raw fuel will mix with the...

Nice and clean solution!

The xm757 8x8 runs on tubeless tires and punctures can be repaired in the field, so to speak. The BII includes this kit, NSN 2640-00-045-1602. It is a little different from the usual plugging tools in that it uses a ""rivet gun" with cartridges, can anyone explain that tool? If you run into...

I'm with you Lloyd, I don't see any problem with a few extra posts, then again, I have always liked teaching, you learn so much from it. :-)
