More testing reviles that the starter will crank that way I have it wired, but will not start. I interrupted the run circuit but not the start circuit. I put the relay in line with wire 29A. This will prevent the truck from staring and running but it will allow the engine/starter to crank. I...

Well, I done installed the unit. It was not too hard and seems to work. I still want to test the amperage through the relay but I am sure it's fine. I also need to tidy up the wiring to make it look stock. I wanted to install the relay without drilling any holes. I wanted to be able to get the...

how think are those bulkhead doors? I need to make some.

I went a little different way and now going to use a different remote control with a relay. I have been bench testing and it looks good. Next I need to install it on the truck. Should be easyish (fitting myself under the dash will be the only hard thing. Every try to adjust the brake light...

It's a work in progress and I am testing it, but use that to control a relay. I don't trust any cheap Chinese thing to carry a load. I am looking for something like this relay here https://temcoindustrial.com/24v-40a-4-pin-bosch-style-automotive-relay-spst/ If you have an LMTV you should have a...

Yeah the premium plug and play tax... Anyway I ordered the kit from my above link and have an ideal how to install it. And dang I see it's on black Friday sale. for 13 bucks. I have the Packard connectors and prestolight wire and will have it so I can go back to stock easily. I don't like...

Sorry about the curiosity but it has a hold of me. I have been wondering a few things about the Auctions and one thing on the HMMWV. First question I have is why are a good number of auction trucks seem to have had the belt(s) cut or removed? I was guessing this this was an anti theft thing but...

LOL at "HMMWV Tax" If you are handy you could use something like this... Cut the neutral safety switch power or a high power relay and cut all power to the start switch. It's cheap...

That's a lot of tube sand...

WOW... Not to poke fun but just too look at things I have heard and said over the year.s.. Man I could use a third arm... You be like Hold my beer. Again not to be disrespectful. Just amazed how people well can adapt. I should stop and think before I complain and just figure out how to adapt...

As how hard are these engine to work on? Guess that would depend your you and how well you use tools. I do not find them hard. However if yours has one of the dang 400 amp alternators... that would make a nun cuss like a sailor.

This maybe the "normal" 6.5 sound. When they run I think I hear a pinging or knocking or clunking noise. If you know anyone in you AO with a 6.5 in your area would listen to it and compare. I have also found that these engines seem to have their own personalty to say. One will be a dog, one...

Thanks!

My truck was one of the de-armored trucks. The lower inside A pillar don't have a cover like on the un-armored trucks. Is there a part number for these? I looked in the TM and didn't see them. Or is there someone scrapping out a body where I could get them? Picture below is the right (pass) side.

I had lockers in my M1008 CUCV pickup and that was just as bad as the LMTV. Need some weight in the back. Also the snow here in Washington is slick as snot on the wet side. Add some hills and you ain't going anywhere.

The only thing I do not like about my LMTV is that it SUCKS in the snow.

Injector lines are not the same between the 2 engines. If you force the 6.2 on a 6.5 they will break after awhile.

First off I am not 100% sure this will work so this isn't a how to. This is just me being board and how to get what I want. I linked to Rock Auto for the clutch. here's the link again https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=8894196&cc=1379426&pt=6812&jsn=1168

Heck if I needed to replace the water pump I would see if this set up would work. I HAVE NOT TRIED THIS AND DO NOT KNOW IF THIS WIOULD WORK. Just thinking and typing my thoughts here. Water pump. pulley and fan clutch $138 . Again GMB as I have had good luck in the past...

705 bucks... yeah no... The above links parts prices Fan clutch $67 GMB brand. I have had very good luck with this brand. Fan $66 GM OEM the gold standard for parts. So far I am up to $133 So $572 in savings. Need to find a pulley that will work. I could turn down the ones In the truck to...
