    Air conditioning for a m1083

    And keep in mind, you ain't running this with the 100a A0 alt (looks like it draws 42a).

    I was skeptical, but the guy swears it works great.

    Air conditioning for a m1083

    I had my doubts, as well. One of the guys on the FB group documented his install and ran one in the cab all summer. Said after seeing days in the 100's he was pleased. He swears up and down it more than fits his cooling needs in the cab (he did insulate the cab well). He was...

    Third's Build Discussion

    We call it "the bunker". They are down there staying safe until the radiation levels outside die down enough to return to the surface so we an repopulate the Earth.

    Convoy light installed and source for a light if needed.

    Still cheaper than some surplus scalpers... https://www.easternsurplus.net/PartDetails/7214/All-5226-M35-Beacon-Kit-warninglight

    I was Looking at Parts to Make a Light Controller and Found This

    I'm planning out my external lighting. Camp lights, cab lights, fog lights, search lights, etc. I was just gonna toss together a control panel for the cab and one for the hab. Most functions will be just simple on/off w/relay, but a couple (like the pan/tilt for the cameras/searchlights)...

    260 amp alternator

    I'm certain your assumption is correct, but he has not posted a pic of the alt placard/model number. Are you confirming that that regulator he pictured is not used on any other Neuhoff dual voltage alt?

    Air conditioning for a m1083

    Sean Fulner runs the one out of the HMMWV in his LMTV. They pop up on GP from time-to-time but can get into bid wars that push them into the stupid category. They can also be sourced civilian. Also would need bracket and pulley...

    Air conditioning for a m1083

    33K BTU , 24v, industrial setup right here. You'd need pully and compressor bracket (both can be found on eBay as well). So the question is can you find the pulley and bracket for under $2500? LOL https://www.ebay.com/itm/254449673512

    260 amp alternator

    Yeah, if that's the case I've seen it installed in several trucks. He asked if it would work and we really need to know the alternator model number to confirm for certain.

    260 amp alternator

    What is the model number on the ID plate? Should be like N1602-1 or N1257 etc. That's a dual voltage alt, but how many amps output? You showed a pic of the regulator.

    New Dash Layout in the works……

    Yeah, he did a sweet dash layout. You'll note that he did retain the OEM switch, though. Originally I did consider deleting the OEM switch and adding a standard automotive headlight pull switch just for the basics. A few people have done it on these trucks (and in a couple cases only...
