    M35A2 Transmission Swaps

    I know this been talked about a lot, but I haven't seen that many actual swaps with the m35a2 trans other than the Alison AT545 and the same Spicer. Has anyone swapped any other transmission in the m35a2 with a longer overdrive? I was thinking about the NV4500 since its close to the same size of...

    Air conditioning for a m1083

    I'm pretty sure there would be someone on here that's interested, I'm thinking about getting the stick-on insulation as well

    Air conditioning for a m1083

    An underdash A/C kit can work, I'm currently installing a 24v A/C kit in a BRDM 2, fully electric compressor. Knowing the M1083 cab isn't that big inside, it should be able to keep you cool

    Geared hub drain plug removal advice

    Another thing that may help when you use the extractor is to put some ATF fluid on the drain bolt or some really good penetrating oil

    Geared hub drain plug removal advice

    I've heard of people welding a star or hex socket in it and then removing it, seems like the best way if you got a welder

    BFGoodrich Baja TA vs Goodyear Wrangler MT?

    I don't see what sidewall issues the MTR can possibly have, the sidewall on them is much stronger than the Wrangler MT tires and or known to be "puncture proof" which is even written on the tire. Before I changed out to the MTR tires, I had MT's, one got punctured on the sidewall when I was...

    What am I getting into with an auction truck?!

    You never really know until you get it, especially with the transmission, my transmission came with exactly no fluid in it and the wiring harness ripped out of it. The truck wouldn't even go in any other gear but 2nd and reverse, but all I needed was another wiring harness and some fluid. That...

    Armored Humvees Powertrain

The main thing I'm looking for is decent MPG and a slight power increase which it should do. It should be a 50HP increase and around 200 Ft Ibs of torque...

    Armored Humvees Powertrain

    That's what I thought but was hoping different, my only issue with the duramax is that I hear its a complex engine to work on and has quite a bit of electronics, and the 6BT issue is the length of the engine would be a problem, another engine I've looked at is a 4BT which seems to be capable of...

    Armored Humvees Powertrain

    This question is mostly for the guys who driven the armored humvees a bit, how good does the 6500 Optimizer and 4l80e holds up and is it enough for a somewhat comfortable city and highway driving? I have a BRDM 2 which is not much heavier than an armored humvee, I think its about 8 tons while a...
