    M101 fuel tank option

    I have the set up. It was on m101a1 and maybe m101. It has a front protective shield, 2 long brackets to mount the tank with 2 ordinary insulated fuel tank straps, fuel tank, filler neck, deuce style filler/strainer and a support strap for filler. Fuel tank has a vent to filler neck. Top of...

    M1045A2 Electrical Issue

    I would start with swapping the light switch and go from there. Might also have a bad flasher.

    M998 muffler

    I would think you should qualify under this program. Check with your state's federal surplus office or see below for information posted on a different thread: Unfortunately there is no TACOM support for the divested variants. Law enforcement users are encouraged to contact the below person...

    Weird M939 20 foot bed... Insulated/shielded?

    more flavors... I wonder if there were more specialized variants than troop carriers of the long wheel base. There is also the USMC ISO version of the long bed. I suspect most of those were used for cargo and general hauling.

    Weird M939 20 foot bed... Insulated/shielded?

    there have been many variants of the m927/m928 with specialized platforms. I would concur that your truck bed is used on one of these flavors.

    HMMWV M998 presentation across the Atlantic.

    Yes, in the desert operations during the wars , some of the stock blackout lights were replaced with the red face round lights used on armor. It does fit just needs a little modification on the washer plate holding it to the fiberglass hood. Many of the special forces trucks did this. Check...

    HMMWV M998 presentation across the Atlantic.

    That is definitely a "field" modification and not stock/oe. 22= LIGHT SWITCH (S) TO SERVICE STOP LAMP The military uses generic codes on the wiring across most platforms. Look at this post: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/military-wire-id-tag-master-code-list.163769/ I don't have my...

    HMMWV M998 presentation across the Atlantic.

    That is the light that 86humv referenced. It is supposed to be used on the dashboard for gauges. Not sure why it is there ? See if the switch and indicator on the dash turn it on? What color is the light?

    Super Lug 9x16 tires

    They are belted bias old school tires not modern radials. Would not recommend for that application. I use them for m101 trailers with no issue. I know they need tubes with the old lock ring rims but not sure if they are a tubeless tire for other applications. Might need to verify specs.

    Ongoing Log Of My 1987 HMMWV

    I would recommend doing the airlift, extension , and tire carrier at the same time. If you want more challenge do the reinforcement and mud flaps and be done with it😀 Not impossible but just have a good supply of bolts nuts, and washers handy. Rig looking good Doc 🤠

    Weird M939 20 foot bed... Insulated/shielded?

    Interesting, I wonder if the marines with the ISO beds had it also?

    Caiman Steel Wheel valve thread size?

    I will need to take a picture but not sure if it will be visible as I screwed the hubcap protector covers back on after I aired them up. Coming straight out of the rim maybe 1 inch. It might not be threaded all the way as that makes sense why nothing would grab it but it does feel like G said...

    Why remove runflats?

    Many thoughts on this. Some do not like the added weight and inertia on the wheels. They tend to ride rough the first few miles after sitting up but then even out. I personally have seen too many trucks on the interstate on their side from box trucks to semi. Don't know the causes but some had...

    Caiman Steel Wheel valve thread size?

    I have some black Camian steel wheels with runflats & goodyears on my 5 ton m923. They were brand new and surplused in the GL days at Ft. Polk. I went to air /check them and some were in need of air. I found it a bear to hold the air chuck against the stems and to get air pressure readings off...

    Ebay Parts Question

    https://www.bretonindustries.com/breton-military-store/ That is a shame as they were reasonable but I can see the difficulty of collecting sales tax and remitting to all the locations is not worth the small retail business they do in comparison to the Military and gov't orders. I blame the...

    Ebay Parts Question

    Check prices against buying directly from breton. Many Ebay sellers are just reselling and marking up.

    M101 Trailer Replacement Shocks

    The 37114 has the correct bushing style that OE uses. All specs can be seen here: http://www.monroe.com/en-US/e-catalog/37114/ It looks to me that Monroe moved this shock from the monroe matic mid level line to their premium line and of course more $ as they are now very proud of it. :-(
