    And the TM's with the part numbers and manufacturer codes are in the Generator Section of the main TM area on this site.

    Was there a final correct answer on the LM/FMTVs being EMP proof ????

    Read the EMP commission reports from 2002 and 2011. the 2002 report (published in 03 or 04) tested over 300 different vehicles (cars, trucks, tractors, etc) in a simulator. Engine was running and all electronics were on. in the 02 tests, 60 percent suffered NO damage, 30 percent the engines...

    Blackest matte black

    We got 180 degree temps on a black seat over a weekend in April when we were testing some early laptops for use in the company service trucks. The computers were supposed to be able to handle 190, they didn't. BTW, SC gets a lot hotter than what we have in April - July and August are usually...

    The official 2023 Southeast Military Vehicle Rally information thread (the event formerly known as the Georgia Rally).

    Phil, is that second picture the CUCV that was fixed at Mitch's farm?

    Fair price on Two MEPs ?

    The extra money buys you twice the capacity (and twice the fuel expense to run) so load management would be easier. But if your stove and hot water are using natural gas or propane, the smaller gen's would be ok.

    How do you secure your vehicle at shows? Armor hatches - Safety related

    I have not done any of the lifting part since I got the short ladder. I strained my back 'lifting' an 11 year old 'boy' out of my deuce - he weighed more than I did - imagine a 175 pound sack of potatoes being dropped into your arms. Nevermore, I have a ladder, if they cannot climb up and...

    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    Don't remember, I had enough trouble just trying to finish the burger. Didn't want any of it to go to waste!

    For receiving AM/FM, it will be fine.

    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    It's a burger restaurant, originally in San Diego, next to a high end establishment. They do burgers right! Do an internet search on it.

    Bought An Expandable Shelter

    From the pictures, it looks like the same 'box' that the Containerized Kitchen uses. In that case the vinyl tent type parts are going to be stiff because there are multiple layers to them. You may need to replace the ECU if you go from three phase to two phase. The CK has a built in 10 KW...

    Behr Paint Jobs- Show me your MV's

    I don't remember anyone doing that. It's a house paint, not really suitable for engine temps. BTW, is the Boll Weevil still going?

    How do I find generator thread posts by number and topic

    At least the state, in large/long states the city/county can also help YOU find people close to you for a 'look over the shoulder' when you are stumped with a problem.

    MEP-803A wiring to a 50 amp plug (several questions)

    Get the soft start kit. The machine will only produce about 125 amps for a short period of time. That 152 amps alone will stall the generator IMHO. More experienced individuals will speak up shortly.

    Mep-003a oil usage

    What have you done to your MKT this week???

    Chris, next time you are cooking for the kids, try the chili-mac. Cook up the macaroni 6 lb in each of the 10 gallon pots, drain through the collander into a 15 gallon pot and put the drained mac into two square head pans (see post 212, pic #4), add two #10 cans of Chili-no-beans, and 64 oz of...

    VIC to Cellphone Adapter and Military Radio Digital Modes Adapter

    Don't need one, but will purchase a copy if it helps out filling the economic order quantity for a build session.

    Official 2022 Denton Military rally thread, April 23rd-24th

    But I won't make it, as that weekend I'll be helping to give some Colonial Soldiers a proper burial in Camden, SC

    My first multifuel?

    That is a common problem when the tanks are not drained properly after every trip.

    North Carolina

    L-o-o-o-o-n-g time ago there was a map function here on SteelSoldiers, back in the day you HAD to put your city and state (in the USA) as part of your signature line. Have you looked in the forum South Eastern US Chapter for North Carolina?

    M34 Active duty

    And THOSE combat rims really didn't have much to do if the tire got penetrated - they were solid rubber inside. Our group helped out the Ft. Jackson Museum 'swap out' all the tires on their static display venicles and that's what we found on the front of the scout car.
