    12v 24v isolation and charging?

    OK on my present project (FAV) it has a 12V system, but they run 24V radios and there is space for two 12V batteries. I am just not sure how they did this or if the whole system was converted to 24V which seems unlikely because it was VW based. I have seen pictures of some of them with what...

    My FAV find!!

    (edit I changed the title from "not a HMMWV but pretty cool) Well I won a bid tonight on a Scorpion FAV. The story as my limited research has discovered so far: (so don't pound me on minor errors) 120 of them were designed and built in the early 80s by Chenowth Racing for the military as a...

    200A alternator output at idle?

    I am sorry, I thought this came up not too long ago but I cannot find it. Does anyone know what the expected output in amps is on the 28 volt side of the 200A dual voltage alternator at idle?

    Turbo waste gate conversion to adjustable

    I was asked to make this its own thread. I converted the stock waste gate controller to make it adjustable, was really easy, just grind off the crimp in the middle of the "can" until it gives up the "cover", then carefully grind the end of the rod (spring end) until the spring cap is free...

    Fuel pump external leak, do not let this happen to YOU!!

    Most guys that have been twisting wrenches for 50 years would not admit to this stupid but simple mistake. But if it saves anyone else from the grief I am about to go through so be it.. A few months ago I replaced a fuel pump with an external leak, I had been waiting for the excuse to install...

    Surge tank screw

    Does anyone know what size the screws are that hold the surge tank neck to the tank is? I am having a hard time determining what it is and the TM does not give that information. OR does anyone have a busted tank that can send me a screw?

    Steering system hot even at idle.

    I never really paid any attention before, wish I had... But with the GEP turbo conversion of course I am checking everything and noticed the PS system gets pretty dang hot even after only 15-20 minuets of idling, I read 170 degrees at the input to the cooler, is this normal???

    Serpentine belt replacement

    I am curious to see the actual belt replacement procedure for my ECV engine but cannot find it in any of the TMs. I did find this in one of the TMs but the artist has a whole pocket full of wishful thinking showing the tensioner completely free and clear of the fan, blades are not more than...

    Wrong 200A serpentine pulley

    Looks like my GEP "kit" came with the wrong pulley, does anyone have the correct pulley or a source for one, I would prefer the clutch type. Looks like 12460259 would be the "regular" number, seems to be several on fleabay..

    Helmet tops @ Lytle

    I hope this is not against any rules, but I did inspect these helmet tops at Lytle and all of the B pillar areas of both of these tops are cut at the top of the doors, just in case anyone was bidding on them, I did not see any of the cut off pieces. BTW I already have a helmet top so I am not...

    Turbo doghouse conversion trim pieces?

    There was a thread earlier eluding to the fact that there were turbo doghouse conversion trim pieces "out there" to help convert a NA floor pan to what is needed to convert to a turbo doghouse where the floor must be trimmed out, does anyone have any information or sources for these?

    Looking for "dealer" in the Belton TX area.

    There was a guy selling non running HMMWVs and parts, he had a museum of some sorts IIRC, he was north of Austin TX, maybe in the Belton TX area. I have not seen any of his posts lately, I think he was on FB, anybody have contact info?

    "Tubular" key

    OK so I know if someone wants in they are going to get in, my only hope is to delay them until I can get them in my sights. 90% of us have the same key code if using the aftermarket door handle/locks and they are not very sophisticated as anyone with just about any tool/utility box key can...
