What is the cost for this repair/MWO?

I nominate one of my M915A4R2. We did a self recovery today since the local PD lacked a forklift.

It is. I'm the one who had to secure that mess at LZ Phantom to get it off base when the new base commander came in. There were a lot of opinions shared that day.

Painted these two recently. Can't argue with the results.

There is an actual fuse panel under the main dash so check fuses there. Some are non-resetable. The TCM not being happy can be an issue. Otherwise poor continuity to starter. Only the starter, black out lights, and trailer 24v pigtail are 24v. All other systems are 12v. I've found these trucks...

I have 5 of these M915A4R2s and they do require a lot of juice to fire up. The power system is similar to the FMTV in the sense that the 24v pulls so much voltage the the 12V drops out when trying to slave start. Group 31 or 65 batteries will do the trick if the outside temp is somewhat warm...

YMMV quite literally. I've had 2020's blow on me and still have a 2006 MV/T as a rear on my M1089A1 that looks great.

Adept Ape has a good channel with a wealth of knowledge. His weekly destructions are amusing too.

What's truly amusing about this whole situation is the winning bidder paid nearly what Uncle Sam paid to Oshkosh. The NSN shows $72,269.88 as their standard list price but contracts from 2014-2022 show price of $42,596.63-$57,776.62. GP walked away with near 75% of that in their pockets.

What scale is this RC? Curious.

I'm interested in a few items. It would be interesting to just walk around everything.

I can issue the appraisal, I'm a registered auto dealer in Texas and I do them often. The second part about "designed to travel on public road or highway" may be covered by text in a TM. It will at least state max travel speed for certain terrain including on highway use. The last requirement...

I opened and installed a true NOS alternator for my M936A2 wrecker. It was packed in a large foam block and wrapped in oil paper. Talk about mint!

Spirit of the law vs Letter of the law. In good spirit of the contest I'll back out this month.

I agree they are or should be preventative but by the time we get them it's mandatory. *cough* I mean the Army totally follows all PMCS by the TM of course! *cough*

From doing several hundred FMTV of all variants, ages, etc.. New fuel hoses (there are 3) Rebuild cab lift pump/reseal cab latch Run second ground from 24v (-) direct to chassis Inspect/clock/balance drive shafts Inspect/replace rubber fan bushing if required Neglecting any of these 5 will...

My minty M978 w/w.

I've used Premium Plus, Ultra, and Marquee and end up going with Premium Plus more often than not. The higher you go in the branding/"quality" the more glossy they become. I've had lengthy discussions with my local Behr rep and even the flattest Marquee is still an eggshell (in gloss) in...

M978 HEMTT painted in Behr 383 CARC substitute. Looks good and "pops" with the black rims in contrast.

Looks like a good canned unit. I'm afraid what that cost from MWE.. :eek:
