I thought of that, but wasn't sure how much air I could let out safely before I notice the truck not "sinking" anymore or the bead separates.
Weighing, THAT I can do while I take the wheels off one at a time to check/drain/fill the geared hubs.
Thanks everyone.

Bought an M998 HMMWV in early October and the seller told me he thought the tires had run-flats/runflats/run flats in them, maybe.
Why the variations? Because I've looked around on this site and others trying to figure out how I figure out if I do or don't have the things short of deflating...
I got one from him this past week, hooked it up to my Sark-110 analyzer and WOW does it have some response, 2M is great, 15M great, 10M great, few others I don't recall off-hand.
It'll take some time to cleanup and hookup, but it was, I think, a great deal.

Thanks for the refresher; I got the pillar positions down pat, just all these little insulating parts.
Another one I ordered was a large piece for the inside of tunnel with a metal framework. Not only can I not find it, I can't figure out where it SHOULD mount.
I'm shipping all those parts...

About those "A"-pillar insulation blocks.
Same/similar question(s).
Part #12446850 Insulation, thermal, #45 on figure 227 of P-1 Technical Manual AND
Part #12446849 Insulation, thermal, #55 on same figure.
I'm doing my best to try and put in whatever...
Went out to hook up a feed line for a switch box (backups, interior lighting, fogs, cell phone charger) I'm puttering around with and found THIS:
Looks like Santa's little elves have been decorating.
got the batteries in about a week ago, didn't get the time to really finish up until today...
Thanks, both answers should help.
Worked today, work tomorrow (nine to nine), will bring in tomorrow night and bring to room temp, take a heat gun/hair dryer to it Saturday.

"The things on the to-do list for this step of the project are to pull the rubber from the back of the doghouse, and hushmat the back then put the rubber back on. As well as hushmat some of the hood directly under the windshield."
I suspect you've gotten this installed already. Any tips on...
Seemed pretty straight-forward, maybe 55 degrees F ambient temp contributed, but without tearing the thing, or tearing my hair out, or two extra sets of hands, I couldn't get the gasket on my doghouse yesterday.
I did search. found four pages of non-related topics here.
Does anyone have...
It's why I dug up the diagram.
Hold part #12 and part # 7 with small pliers and they unthread (there aren't any threads shown on the drawing where the parts meet, but they're there).
Another tip, push the PINS towards the back (the wire end) one at a time. Find something like a split pin...
I have a '92 (mfd 12/91, says '93 on the title) M998 HMMWV and among the things that are toast is the heater motor.
I've found three separate numbers.
6105012116635 30266 figure 333 of the P-1 manual.
6105014635260 30042 is the NEW (marked with *) model.
I haven't taken the motor out yet...
Thanks for the reply. I "missed" winning by fifty bucks. Found one locally for about the same price. Am currently in the throes of insulating and wiring in backup and interior lighting and trying to figure out how to clear out my garage so I can pull this in about 8 feet and get under the...

I did a websearch for "US military ID plate font" and came up with a LOT of pictures, nothing on which specific font should be used (san serif, times roman, or pica size, nothing).
There's likely to be a printer's user's group or website where, if...
Filled up Friday, Saturday AM I was doing something with the batteries and smelled diesel fuel.
Took a minute to track down the source. Apparently, along with most all the other rubber parts on this truck (1993 M998 6.2L), the hose is broken down and being parked on a slight slope (rear end...
Took out the old failed batteries, sanded/painted (black zinc primer from RAPCO) the floor and sides of the box, put some 1/4-20 threaded rivets into 3" strips of 1/8" aluminum ('cause it's what I had on hand), drilled floor for pop rivets, slathered plates with black silicone rubber, put in...
