    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    It looks like the cdr valve was bypassed. There is a tube tucked into another tube, that runs from the air intake to the oil fill.

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    Odometer says 13K but who knows. It's a GEP 6.5 turbo and looks pretty new (relatively speaking). Serial number of the truck is 258XXX range.

    Light switch mod for safety

    While this does seem like a good idea, there is some downside. I occasionally do night vision driving, and like to have full control over the lights. While not a great idea (or legal) to drive on the road at night with no lights, its certainly legal and fun to drive in the woods with no lights...

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    Okay, glad I asked because I had no idea to look for that. It seems insanely stupid that they would remove these parts and leave the vehicle in this condition, just so people cant drive through deep water. If you're going to remove a critical part, at least replace it with something that will...

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    I assume it had the fording kit, because it did include the snorkel (although not installed) and the extended exhaust pipe. There is a hole in the dash where the fording valve was once installed. I will check to see if the CDR valve is there, thanks for the heads up!

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    Thanks! I'm wondering why the hell they would remove the filter in the first place? I remember when I bid on my truck seeing a few other trucks where it was disclosed that the air filter was removed. Why on earth would they do that? I assume it's somehow related to the demilitarization process...

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    I received my Yermo m1151a1 yeserday. It's a runner, so I had to start it immediately to drive it off the car hauler truck. I also had it running for maybe 10 minutes in my driveway just testing things out, checking the AC compressor, gauges, etc. The engine runs and sounds normal to my...

    West Kentucky Surplus

    So I bought some of the fiberglass doors that West Kentucky Surplus makes. I've been looking at these for awhile, because in my opinion they are the only reproduction X-doors worth buying. They appear to be an exact (or close to exact) reproduction of the original X-door, even having...

    Locking door handles

    Gotcha, I was hoping for a solution like this but for people who don't have the locking door handles. Oddly I only want to be able to lock the door from the inside but not the outside. I'm sure there is a way.

    Locking door handles

    Can you explain this better? Do you have a picture?

    Hard-top vs Soft Top

    I have hard doors and a soft top. I do like the combination, it looks good and I have no functional issues. I've thought about doing a hard top but I don't think it will have much of a benefit unless I do the full conversion with a turret, which as MarkM mentioned will run 8-10K. That's way too...

    X Door Restoration

    Just an update: The first door I fixed with epoxy had some failures. Seems like the expansion/contraction rate of the expoxy is much different than the door. I was able to redo that door with the bondo and its all fixed now. The other door that I originally fixed with bondo is holding up great...

    Battery imbalance. Related to dual voltage? Trying to understand electrical system

    Is this true even if you dont have a dual voltage alternator? That sounds like something I don't have time for and will never do lol.

    Poll - What Directional Switch do you have?

    Thats not solid state, lol!

    Poll - What Directional Switch do you have?

    So I thought it might be that, but then I thought since it says "solid state" that it probably has an LED not a bulb.

    Poll - What Directional Switch do you have?

    I have a "C" one. Anyone know what the little half circle wire thing is for?

    Did I use the wrong coolant?

    Well I'll certainly file this under "things I'm not going to lose sleep over."

    Did I use the wrong coolant?

    Yeah, if I recall it was labeled as safe for all makes and models. According to Prestone's website there really aren't that many options.
