Yes, thanks for the follow-up. There are too many issues in threads left open-ended without the solution being posted.

Not official DOD stuff but lots of info here: https://www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/us-army-high-mobility-multipurpose-wheeled-vehicle-hmmwv.8712/

Maybe the search starts with the first humvee contract number? Maybe there are requirements listed that the contract fulfills? I don't think the info is easy to find but it's out there somewhere.

This could help you. Nht88-1.29 This is the NHTSA 's "interpretation" where they tell AM General that their products were indeed meant to spend the majority of their time (60%) on public roads after AM General tried to back peddle on their design intent when the M151 started getting too much...

Well, I think I'll celebrate by putting some new shoes on the old truck...

Thank you guys! Wow, getting voted MV of the Year is a big honor for my truck and I ! I have put a ton of work into my truck in the last 3 years so this award feels really good and is indeed a highlight for the truck. There were a lot of great rigs in the running that made it a very stiff...

These guys are using some sort of special tool during Hurricane Katrina relief efforts.

That would be the 14.00s on the bridge truck. I believe the M819 came with 12.00s?

If the A3 is newer than Oct. '92 i wonder if they found that lower torque number to be inadequate and increased it for the A3?...

It's loud for sure and I love it; 1000-1600 rpm sounds like a jet spooling up for take off when the turbo whine is louder than the exhaust note. The jakes sound super sexy though. They let out a sharp, staccato hammering at high rims and a mellow burble under 1700 or so. A long drive for me...

The truck in the second video is mine and for the sake of compiling numbers it's running a #17 button and the most I've seen is 14+ psi & 900° F. I don't know what rail pressures it's running at but the new button has caused new fuel leaks around the manual shutoff valve...

OK, I found a torque value and a torque sequence in the Oct. 1992 TM. In the section header it lists both the A1 (5/8" stud) and the A2 (3/4" stud) tire and wheel so I guess it's the value for both stud sizes

Are you thinking of upping your tire size to 12.00R-20 NDTs?

This race is getting tight! Towering over the soccer mom SUVs is fun when I surprise the kids in the pick-up lane! I put this on when the state wide mask mandate went into effect just to appease the crazy folk and offer up some comic relief from the lock down...

I contacted my district representatives here is WA to support HB1439. They were happy to hear from me but they have to wait until it clears the House and moves on to the Senate before they can vote on it. I don't know if there are folks in the House to contact or maybe it's already in motion.

Is that a 1" drive? That thing looks cool

Thanks for chiming in guys, but I was hoping for something more definitive. Going till it stops is a bit subjective. Like if I use my favorite wrench till it stops it won't be enough: If I use a 1" impact till it stops I might be snapping off studs. There's got to be ft-lb number...

I've been looking for the torque spec for the nuts that fasten the two halves of the A2 combat wheels with the 3/4" studs, but I haven't found anything. Does anyone know what the correct range is? Does it differ by brand of wheel?

Looks like a fun project! What are these big cast parts here? I haven't seen those before. Sockets for QD tow hooks or spade receptacles?
