Its not required to use any sealant but even the military runs a 1/4" bead in the corner just to add some insurance. If you are in a rainy area or it sits outside, I would highly recommend a little sealant in the glass groove as well. The screws for the retainers are originally a 10-32 screw...

I second the tent seam sealer fix I have had good luck with keeping nice tops nice and improving weathered tops by using PB Blaster SILICONE spray. It is not a liquid the evaporates fast like regular silicone spray...its somewhat foamy and clings till it soaks in. Seems to rejuvenate the...

with any luck, today is the day my M1123 gets out of Yermo Prison

This thread has inspired me to pick up some NOS hoses before the rush...

i just spray with my Rapco CARC substitute rattle cans. I scrub them with some soapy water and paint when dry. It seems like the same thing the military(or GP) does to touch them up for inventory.

We just got an 1123 in and it was missing the CDR valve also. I was wondering about why until this thread popped up. Makes sense now. They ripped the fording switch out ...which was nice.

What I have heard is that the USMC XXXXXX number is the registration number of the vehicle. Seen on both sides of the hood and on the tailgate. Ones that have been assigned to a unit/location they receive the Mxxxxx number. Seen on the side of the body beneath the B pillar and on the tailgate...

Isn't that the bracket in the third pic?

Looks nice! Its refreshing to see someone do a MERDC paint job. Still my favorite from when I was a kid.

6.2 and 6.5 with V-belts uses the one on the left. Clockwise rotation. 6.5NA and 6.5T that run the Serpentine belt runs the other one. Counter-clockwise rotation. Im not sure if there is a different fan for the later model 6.5T with the angled gear drive fan and viscous clutch

Agreed...

As far as antennas go...its more what you like and are willing to put up with as far as overhead clearance goes. I parked mine in the garage so they made extra work My buddy has antenna fever on his M1045

Not necessarily ... What do your top mounting holes look like? Top of the duct? Then you need those angle brackets. Face of the duct? Just bolt it direct

Pic of what you are calling an "A1" brush guard and brackets? I think your winch bumper would normally have the "A2" style with the "Z" brackets

According to the part numbers given in the parts manual...when cross-referenced turns up 3/8"ID for the 9438373 hose and 1/4"ID for the 9438257 hose.

It will usually be found on the data plate in the drives door jamb Not a full VIN like on normal cars. Just the "manufacturers serial number" Six digits long

Arizona!

You are correct. The HMMWV had more engineering manpower dedicated to draining water out than keeping rain out. The divider sits on top of two "feet" that hold it up so the bed channels are clear to drain rain into(or out of) the cab quickly and efficiently .

I think its a little vulnerable there. Ive been kicking around the idea of replacing the factory unit with a spin on filter and mount with a manual prime pump built in like on the LMTV. I bought one to experiment with but it is way to big . I gotta find one that is closer to the size of the...
