post better pics of the thing in the bed.

Antenna base mount.

I'd strap that down somehow. If you get into an accident or hit something, that will become a projectile.

yes and no. The J-2 which was the military version (4 screws on the top plate), and the civy version (3 screws on the top plate). I have the J-2 military version on my '45 MB. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?26826-Braden-J2-winch-install TONS AND TONS of info here...

the M977 and the M985 are the same except for the heavier duty crane on the M985.

Don't expect any answers out of AMG.

no fuses. Did the wiring harness short out?

Downsizing the military, more emphasis on being "light", and the fact that many TOC's are now in the back of vehicles/powered by vehicles and not huge "tent cities".

The switch is shot. Buy a 3 lever and never have another problem with it. The push button switches SUCK. many threads on here about them, all with the same conclusion.

all my VWM harnesses are good, but they were made before Joe Hall sold the company to the new guy....

They are supposed to, but tell that to a BDE level paint shop....

Most 5 tons had the single radio, but my unit had the dual units, 1 for normal radio comms, and the 2nd for what was then pre BFT.

The issue mount for the 939 series SUCKS...... it will rattle itself to death quickly. I had 15+ of them when I was in the Army. Best thing to do is bolt the mount to the front of the passenger seat with the controls facing up.

That's exactly what they did.

Call the manufacturer and ask. Way more info on that switch than you may want to know... https://www.ipfw.edu/dotAsset/239506.pdf

Unit's DS level maintenance would swap out 6.2's for 6.2's and 6.5's all the time when I was in.

the "extra wire thing" is a load of crap. They are all the same, they all burn/catch fire/melt. Not worth it. I talked to the manufacturer one day, there is no "1st version/2nd version. I had one until it almost melted my wiring harness..

the 12/24V alternator doesn't put out many amps on the 12V side.......

Thank you. Does anyone have pics of the hose/wheel valve? Im trying to help someone who is miles away via email.

All, I have done a search, I am looking for pics of "what to do" for the how to put the valve in the valve stem to separate the tire from the M939A2 CITS system so the tires don't go flat. Im not interested in the kits I can buy. I need the "low cost way" to do it to help someone out...
