That depends on what you perceive as noisy, the remote mounted reservoir version of PS pump is inherently more noisy than the early style PS RCSK18330 pump, so which do you have?
Fist off, open the water separator to purge air in the filter canister, do this while running, 2nd, pull the drain back line off the inj pump and run Into a jar for a few minutes to make sure all air is out of pump head…
Does it really matter to the guy who buys one hmmwv? Maybe 2?
I buy trucks every week, multiple at a time…..to myself and other companies, it’s just another added expense, I personally wouldn’t have a problem
with the increase if they could get the SF97 in a reasonable amount of time, but in...
You cannot keep an ECV radiator with the old style hood, the radiator has a 12in support extension that goes in place of the 4in extension, it’s physically impossible. I’ve done many Turbo drive train conversions that use the A0-A2 non-ECV cooling stack just as the H1 does.
That’s a REV truck,
You don’t have a TDM or Cadillac valve.
let me tell you what I’ve found on these non-runner trucks after getting them in a few a week for the last couple years…there is absolutely no rhyme or reason as to what or why something was done to a truck in regards to what’s...
Really? The hmmwv is 38yrs old…the JLTV is NOT replacing the hmmwv, it’s supplementing it, the JLTV has the worst
NMC rate of any vehicle ever rolled out, The Army moved JLTV funds to acquire more Hmmwv’s due to JLTV
NMC issues, so just how bad is the hmmwv?
oh, and the USMC isn’t set to retired...
special? well….it’s a superior gear for off road, a pavement pounder won’t ever realize any difference.
the beefier gear, pitman, idler and center link are all specific to the shepperd gear, it was upgraded due to the heavy armor
on the later model trucks.
SN above 300k are REV truvks…so they bring a premium, GFD, Wilwood brakes, 3 piece frame rails, MP2225 Tcase…many builders are using
this platform for builds as its top of the food chain.
You need the spacer, 200 amp rear support bracket and 200amp rod bolt…The old 400amp rear supprt won’t work.
Also remove the extra starter positive cable and extra ground cable that runs to the extra battery box ground stud.
You don’t need a tool to move the pump, just a breaker bar in a spot that won’t vent or break anything on the pump, use the engine block as a leverage point, your not going to move the pump all that much to advance the timing.
You can’t get the quart of more of oil out of the oil cooler, so you oil is instantly black on these trucks.
15w-40 has a detergent for the high ash content of diesel engines, that’s why its literally the go to oil for all
diesels,
