This air filter housing is off a 1986 CUCV. My busted original housing from 1987 had identical decal.

Emissions label on side of air cleaner. Edit: see pics in posts below. The pics did not load correctly in this post.

I use NOCO smart chargers on my optima red and blue tops. They do very well. I need to do some more research before using the aircraft charger. Will give the Hawker Battery folks a call and talk to them and see what they say.

The Hawkers are AGM.

I was recently given a 24V aircraft battery charger. It’s an older one but in excellent condition. A switch can change it from just powering the aircraft to 50A battery charging mode. It is an automatic charging system and not just a straight charger. Is 50A too much for a stock NATO system...

You get what you pay for. Many different noname/cheap brand lights are advertised for jeeps and such. Good Quality LED headlights cost a lot more than $100. Yes there is a difference. Quality, reliability, beam pattern, longevity, light color, materials and so on. One can save money on...

No idea on the weight, but Dexter Axle will have something for a replacement. They are a supplier to the Military. Did you look at the axle tab already? It will have the part number and weight rating, etc.
