    HMMWV Stability Concerns While Turning

    When I received my M1025 the tires were like Steve Buscemi’s teeth. An alignment later and she was queen of the road.

    Hard doors vs. soft doors opinions

    Any boat shoppe can fix this. They also sell the stuff to clean the plastic windows to get rid of the cloudiness.

    Hard doors vs. soft doors opinions

    I couldn’t have said it better Dred… If you lived in Alaska, maybe hard doors or insulated doors. If you lived in Chicago, hard doors to help against theft.

    Why not try UBINTU Linux?

    Received 2002 M1097A2 for firetruck build - looking for advice

    Clean the stack. Clean the inside of the radiator. Replace the hoses and ensure none of them were collapsing under vacuum effect. Use a laser thermometer and stop wasting time assuming the gauges are buggered

    Charger

    Get a hand held meter and double check before assuming the factory meter is correct.

    N3118 voltage regulator

    N3135 iirc. That is designed to fit. I’m almost certain plugs and such are not the same [EDIT - I'm wrong]

    Any help with plugs and smart box?

    Yes, and it was posted years ago. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/how-to-bypass-pcb-i-am-aware-some-hmmwv-owners-have-done-it.182560/ Someone else also posted years ago how to just bypass the glow plugs. Search is your friend.

    Received 2002 M1097A2 for firetruck build - looking for advice

    This is an old truck with an old stack. Try cleaning the stack and try cleaning / boiling the radiator. Dirt gets in there and blocks air flow. Ask me how I know… I always turned her off before she hit 210. Laser check the radiator to see if hot water is getting to it. You can pull out the...

    Anyone ever open and repair a TCM?

    Steve, your knowledge base is amazing and you never cease to impress. Thank you.

    Anyone ever open and repair a TCM?

    Agreed. I also have purchased a separate manual controller that will essentially turn this into a four-speed manual transmission, so if I am out on the road in the middle of nowhere, I will be able to get home safely and effectively using all four gears and overdrive.

    Anyone ever open and repair a TCM?

    This was purchased as a spare. I want to carry a spare box. The magic green smoke exited this TCM a long time ago.

    Anyone ever open and repair a TCM?

    Opened it up. How the heck does water get into such a heavily protected unit!!! And why not place packaging tablets to absorb/ scavenge the water? One small doo-dad fell free. 1x2 mm. I can ID the spot but not the purpose. I will wash in deionized water in the future and see if anything...

    Anyone ever open and repair a TCM?

    Steve, my friend… Before opening it I figure asking around is never a bad idea. Why reinvent the wheel?

    Anyone ever open and repair a TCM?

    I picked up a spare TCM and case. Before ordering the new module I was wondering if anyone had ever opened one up and attempted a repair. I have no idea what will be inside, but I assume a chip to accept EEPROM and some other electrics and probably water damage.
