    If you are not familiar with setting up R&P in a heavy truck, take/send your pumpkins along with your new R&P to a competent shop like MTP drivetrain Many, LA.

    Radio mount for HMMWV GMV

    I believe the tray is the same as usual, what they did was have that u shaped surround made so more stuff could be mounted on top. Somebody was reproing those, maybe 86humv.

    Control Box Schematics

    My suggestion would be to offer new "guts" for the existing boxes we have. That will eliminate the expense of the box and the expensive connectors. And pppplease use a big honkin solenoid, not those 3 in a row transistors to light up the glows.

    1998 humvee drivetrain storage question

    I know you posted in the HMMWV section, but are you talking about a Chevy cutaway with the 6.5? The USMC HMMWVs typically are not fluid drained, whereas USAF vehicles are. I wouldn't drop pans but I would grab the crank pulley and make sure the engine is free.

    Alternative to D51R Optima on MEP-802A

    There is a group 51 agm available but be aware it has little tiny posts for a disgusting prius. I bought one at NAPA, didn’t really look at it until I had it in the store parking lot, ah no. Back it went.

    LMTV Cargo Cover install questions

    How does soldier a handle knowing the truck could shake off it’s air compressor, alternator or fan any time it feels like it? Kinda always in the back of my mind while driving these.

    LMTV Cargo Cover install questions

    The only time you would need those straps is if you drive at highway speeds with the vinyl tarp sides rolled up. If the sides are lashed down the top can’t suck off.

    LMTV Cargo Cover install questions

    Those straps attach the bows to the cargo bed so a gust of wind doesn’t parachute the entire bed cover up and away bows and all.

    Using your CUCV as a generator

    Uncle Sugar=Uncle Sam, what soldiers call the military industrial complex.

    Using your CUCV as a generator

    GMV inverter.

    Using your CUCV as a generator

    Yes, the military used US manufactured inverters on SECM (maintenance) HMMWVs as well as Special Forces GMV HMMWVs. They have thick cables feeding them, as Tow4 said, the poor CUCV alternators won’t like it if you decide to pull 4000 watts to power your house during an outage.

    M1031 with serpentine belt questions

    Yes that’s the HMMWV alternator and the military never installed either it or a serpentine system on a M1031. Someone did a very clean install looks like, and did away with the finicky dual alternator setup and troublesome V belts.

    Here’s my crispy critter. All the steel parts were fine. Took forever to get the melted hood plastic out of the engine valley.

    I'm not sure if govplanet is serious or not

    Hey it’s fixable, that’s what I started with when I restored my HMMWV back in 1990.
