I never thought I would get to post in this thread either! we got close to 9in here at my place. After it got to 3 I went out and stuck a ruler in the roof of my pickup.
The wife and I went to a local parking lot with the m818, to see if we could do some donuts. It would break loose every once...
Yes, they made some for Hmmves. I have one, and it will be going in my M109 very shortly.
It fits in the stock alternator spot, but is a bit bigger around. I believe it is 100amp 24v and 12v. I have 3 optimas in the battery box, two for the 24 and one for the 'house power' 12v for cab...
Ah the 7 Ps. Proper Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Preformance. It was going to be the weekend after, but the sites were taken.

If I was closer I'd run over there and lend you hand for free.
N1265, I had the same issue with my switch in my first deuce. I know you said you don't want to buy another one, but I've seen them go for $40 on Ebay, and you already spent $20 on LED lights your not happy with.
My deuce would do the same thing, especially if I ran the convoy lights (they are...
Congrats! that's a smart looking truck! Sounds like what happened will be an easy fix. The more I drive my m818 the more I love the 5 ton. Have fun with it!
I double clutched the 818 when I was hauling ties, as a long time CDL driver rode with me several times and taught me how. I've since started doing it in the deuce. I don't blip the throttle in between, or let the clutch back out. I push the shifter lightly, and then push the clutch down until...
