    Looking for members that live around Ft. Campbell

    Try posting in the LMTV/FMTV specific section for troubleshooting help. Many folks don't bother to stray outside the specific vehicle areas they are interested in.

    Big brass ones, sir! Big brass ones, to haul it like that 900 miles! Glad you made it home without damaging yourself or the equipment.

    998 side mount machine gun mount

    Do you just want center to center lengths? Some of the earlier/non-MSG mfg swing arms were made from solid round bar at the ends of round tubing. Unless you have a mill to make the dogbone shape.

    998 side mount machine gun mount

    I've bought 3 A&K M240B airsoft guns from Evike Airsoft, retail $560, I catch them on holidays like Christmas, Easter, Memorial Day, Independence Day, etc where they offer a 20-25% off coupon code if you register on their website. So $448 and some holidays they offer free shipping. I did...

    998 side mount machine gun mount

    I tried to scan as one 8.5 x 11 inch sheet but failed. All parts are 1/4" plate. I'll sketch up the pintle later, this was a 5min job that turned into 45min.

    GoDove HMMWV GMV, Anyone get EUC?

    Per Dave on Tuesday 21 May: I wanted to provide you with a quick update. The revised Certificates of Destruction have been forwarded to the TSC office in Ft. Belvoir. They will begin processing the EUC packages next week. Hopefully we will begin to see approvals coming in the next couple of...

    War pics questions

    The OIF GMV Pic, I know for sure it isn't a repurposed Sponson Net, I tried it in all four planes. So it is either a cut down M1025 Hatch Net, Pallet Net or something they had their Parachute Riggers sew up. Some of the pics show the net popriveted directly to the door sill, some show a 1"...

    If you have the AN/VRC- 89, 91, 92, heck I think they go up to at least VRC-113 now, etc configuration manual to look up the individual component nomenclatures or part Numbers, most of the stuff you can get from Murphyjunk.net American-milspec.com or Fairradio.com

    Humvee Radio

    If all you want is a Ham-band radio, look for ICOM IC-7200, originally from the factory in black (refurb black $800+), a third party did a partial disassembly and refinished the housings in OD, Desert, Digital and Multicam Camo, with plastic bolt on somewhat military looking handles on the...

    Humvee Radio

    I was told the later COMSEC RT-1439 will work without the ComSec card installed but the RT-1523s will not run without a ComSec. Try finding a ComSec card for your radio? As long as you don't have the current Fill there shouldn't be a violation. Or find the schematic to see if you can find...

    M1025A2's who bought one of the 8

    Eastern has at least one used Weapons Support $1295 plus freight from Philthy to NY should be too painful, its only about 50lbs. I have an extra early Turret Weapons Station, the type with the cat ears, correct for up to A2 Truck around Serial Number 189,000; extra side opening hatch, kbar...

    M1025A2's who bought one of the 8

    Dave, I have acquired photos of the further demilling done to the M1025A2 HMMWVs; Turret Weapons Supports. What an amateurish and irresponsible job they did! See attached. I'm not even sure it is safe to transport on trailer as-is, all that is holding the roof up are the 4 screws on...

    M1025A2's who bought one of the 8

    Jesus, is that even safe to transport on trailer like that? All that is holding the tin roof on are the 4 screw on the sheetmetal B Pillar Cover. I mean, it was too much F ing trouble to remove the bolts and roll pins that secured the bent 0.25" wall aluminum tubing to the Weapons Support...

    M1025A2's who bought one of the 8

    Got some answers back from Dave: Re: "We have to start the EUC over again"-Does "we need to start the EUC process from scratch" mean buyers must resubmit a newly dated application packet? – We will submit the original EUC form that you already submitted, once the updated Certificate of...
