    M1114 B pillar question.

    There appears to be an additional plate riveted to the B-pillar on these m1114 Swiss cheese trucks, if it’s overly an eyesore, you can remove the B-pillar “sail” install new or at least a clean take off…done it many times.

    24v power source at alternator for IBIS Light bar?

    These light kits were not designed for trucks with 60amp Gens….you would Be best served upgrading to a 200amp. Also, I would be very careful with that Pulsetek box, they are dumped for a reason many many moons ago. I’ve seen the solar panal over charge the batteries and cause battery to...

    400a to 200a conversion

    The reason for a smaller pulley is to have a higher output of amps at idle, the 400amp puts out 180amps at idle, almost what the 200amp puts out at max rpm’s.

    400a to 200a conversion

    it’s already off…so it will stay “off” LOL

    400a to 200a conversion

    May I add, there is a pulley kit that uses a fixed pulley on the 200amp that allows you to use the 400 serp belt, or if you are able to remove your old fixed 400 pulley you can reuse that….but you will lose the lower rpm indication previously talked about because it’s a smaller pulley.

    400a to 200a conversion

    Never a problem, we just had to make sure you had everything, so based on that conversation on the phone I was confident you Just needed to install it all as I’ve done numerous times, it would all fall right into place. And yes….your post install observations are spot on and of course one of the...

    Advice Please: Planning 4L80 Conversion

    Like everything else now, prices are all over the place, stuff that used to cost very Little has sky rocketed. The only mfg of the 4L80e is GTP, I’m sure it’s something to do with AMG parts availability.

    Humvee Injection Pump Timing

    Could be a rebuilt pump, advancing the timing will make the motor louder, especially when cold… A pump every week or so gets replaced, I only use new pumps or TACOM approved rebuilds and I set dead center on scribe and never look back.

    Advice Please: Planning 4L80 Conversion

    4l80e takes a different cover, only early TH400’s were single piece, later on they went with 2 piece. The 4L80e version can be had at HPG https://www.hummerpartsguy.com/COVER-TORQUE-CONVERTER-LARGE-WO-GASKET-4-SPEED_p_7832.html
