    M998 60 Amp to 200 Amp Alt upgrade?

    Thanks Juan. That's exactly it. Did you get it from eBay, such as this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/231886924178 or does someone on here sell one?

    M998 60 Amp to 200 Amp Alt upgrade?

    I'm going to get mine from NAPA. It's a started cable so should do well for my needs. Still need to find power distribution box. Someone posted a setup a while ago that had both 24V and 12V terminals. IIRC, some had regular fuses while others had the self resetting ones. Not if I could only...

    M998 60 Amp to 200 Amp Alt upgrade?

    I talk to Niehoff this morning as well. They did say that there were multiple versions of regulator and the current one http://www.ceniehoff.com/Documents/Ctrl_Hyperlink/II225A_uid6920141104561.pdf doesn't show that "grounding" wire on either dual nor single voltage setups. I also asked him for...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Started 200Amp upgrade yesterday. It was much easier once George (in the picture) showed up and started helping out.

    M998 60 Amp to 200 Amp Alt upgrade?

    Guys, I finally got to upgrading the 200A that I got from 86HUMV few month ago. I have two questions: 1. the Reference wire that goes from 14V-Stud to Base. I don't have that wire. What gauge do I use/need? And... why is that needed? Doesn't that short 14V to ground? 2. What size gauge of...

    What's a good source/option for the inside fans? I saw some for 70 or so bucks and was hoping to get some a bit cheaper. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Guys, for those that recently painted air lift bumpers, Rhino spare tire carrier or even the rims, what locally available rattle can flat black paint have you used? Need to do some clean up and paint and don't want to have to set up the whole spray paint gun setup.

    I will check, but I'm pretty sure the plug is keyed to only go in one way. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Trailer harness miswired

    Got my M998 few months ago. More recently I bough M1101 trailer from a buddy. Connected it to my rig and couldn't get lights on trailer to work right. Buddy swore that he tested my trailer on his M998 and it all worked fine. Took several weeks for him to get to my house (his rid was rented to...

    High desert here in New Mexico. <10%-12% is common. I looked up once and consensus was that 40%-55% was optimal for humans. We used to get decent monsoon season where is rained a bit each day, but in recent years it's been less and less. I blame all you guys for driving environmentally...

    I got my Rhino spare tire carrier installed. Few more small things to fit around the bumper and I'll be ready to take it all apart and clean/paint it. On odd shaped items like the tire carrier, what's the easiest way to clean them? Should I invest in $100-$200 sandblasting unit from Hazard...

    Cooling upgrade system.

    Fan turning less does NOT mean the fluids are not going thru the radiator unless temp sensor is in the radiator. Fan turning on less means that the temperature thru temp sensor is either not flowing as much as before or that cooling is more efficient and temperature dropped and fan cooling isn't...
