A SS member/friend stopped by for a visit the other day in his 1300L. He purchased it from another SS member. I snapped a few pics of it and my 818 for comparison. It was a nice Mog with fast axles and an overdrive box. It was previously a firetruck in Europe, hence the color. There was...

Hey gang, I have a German swingfire heater in my shed leftover from my 404 Mog days. I would like to get it working for other MV uses. My spark plug is missing. The HMMWV Arctic Kit parts manual lists a NSN and a PN, but I couldn't find a civilian cross-over. I figure it is metric. Maybe a...

I know we've covered adding the heaters in several posts, but mine already had one in the rear-most location. I'm curious about when these heaters would be added in service. Was it part of the arctic winterization kits? Mine has the remains of the cab insulation and the shifter boots, as well...
