    Hydr Manifold Ctrl:24P has 2 lines going to same outlet on rear; Correct Routing Dia?

    I just figured out why I FVBARed the hydraulic lines to the Control Manifold when I changed it out: The 24&P Manual is showing two different lines going to the same socket on the backside. Figure 256 shows the Spare Tire lower hydr line going to Pilot and Suspension Compress Figure 252 shows...

    To the Engineer Who Designed the FMTV Hydraulic/Pneumatic Manifold: I Hate You

    Like it says, the TM says to do it one way but its not the most efficient, turning a wrench 30deg at a time to remove hose fittings, and that is when you have room for the wrench. Humungous block of aluminum to mill on, and the fittings have to be so close the flare nut wrench can't fit...

    Will Bose Triport Noise Cancelling Headsets Work on VIC-1 System?

    When I ETSed we were just starting to get the first SINCGARS. A big leap forward, running two 1439Cs vs an RT-524 and an RT-442 Aux and having to switch back and forth the freqs on the radio and aux to be able to take fire missions from FISTers and Rifle Plts. Anyhooo, modern VRC systems are...
