    M936A2 towed

    With the front axle being air engaged hopefully nothing has been damaged. If he put the t-case in neutral that would be another layer of comfort but I doubt that happened. All in all nothing you can do beyond pure speculation for 8 weeks until you can get eyes on it. I bet it's either fine or...

    Current EUC Wait Time

    Same here with the Army stuff but the USMC goes through a different DLA office and different processing times.

    HMMWV Role Identification - CTIS Model

    It's all good. It needs a lot of work and may end up being cannibalized to install on a better truck. I've only drained 5 gallons of water from the block and tried to turn her over a little so far. She is just in queue until her number gets called.

    HMMWV Role Identification - CTIS Model

    Oh I bet. All four tires on this one are flat as Kansas so I'm expecting one seal/o-ring to fail at a time until they're all replaced. aua

    HMMWV Role Identification - CTIS Model

    I saw a lot of those setups at Hood including a few drone launcher units with Raytheon logo remains on the side panels. I'm leaning more and more SF as tacky as sounds to me.

    HMMWV Role Identification - CTIS Model

    Awesome. Now why was it special to get CTIS, winch, and pintle extension?

    I've got them in Dallas and can have them brought down to Conroe next week. These are NOS Wranglers (2017) on 24 bolt rim with run flats.

    HMMWV Role Identification - CTIS Model

    I've been watching the HMMWV auctions close for anomalies and gabbed this unique "M1097R2" recently. CTIS, winch, pintle extension, and more. I've had a few AD friends look at it but so far no cohesive conclusion on what role or loadout it had while in service. ADA launcher, satellite erection...

    Someone Got a New Toy (not me)

    I'm not saying it but I sure am thinking it.

    Someone Got a New Toy (not me)

    I watched it and bid it up. I strongly hint a big surplus dealer got it and it will soon have some fresh paint and more digits on the price tag.. :rolleyes:

    Tire talk

    Agreed. It helps that we don't carry around all the armor package weight and etc too. I have several hundred of the MT/Rs on rim dated 2016/2017 that are NOS. About half have never seen the ground until I rolled them around for inspection. I'm not afraid to use them and tire on rim with run flat...

    How long can you run without serpentine belt?

    If the block is full of coolant you can run it for a few minutes at idle as the block and coolant can soak up the initial heat. If you're just trying to get it up the hill 200 yards it wont hurt it but keep time and throttle to a minimum of course. I'd keep the belt on and toss in cheap fluid to...

    Purchased a 2006 Humvee M1097R1 - Need Help

    Hard to say on that one. I have one R1 in that serial range that has 68,xxx miles on it but who's to say that's not original miles before reset or even the original gauge.

    Purchased a 2006 Humvee M1097R1 - Need Help

    This is correct. I have 3 in that range with the 3 speed. It's like the DoD does what ever it wants without logic. Crazy! :p

    differences between LDS465-1A and the Dash-2 ?

    I saw a LDS-2 in a can, yes NOS in a can, on facebook from another steelsoldier member last summer. He stripped it down to put in his deuce and I bought all the M656/M757 specific accessories. I know rare stuff pops up time to time but it's possible.. :naner:

    differences between LDS465-1A and the Dash-2 ?

    I have a M757 with the LDS-2 in it. The TMs for the truck aren't too enlightening on the engine itself but it's rated for 210 hp. Some documents say 215 hp so it is in that area. It does have a larger turbo and I'm sure the pump is tuned differently. I can't say if it shares pistons with the -1A...

    Current EUC Wait Time

    Fastest EUC in the west.. 1 minute. I did submit it the day prior so I wouldn't be surprised if the system updates daily and it was both submitted and approved the day before so it looks like this. Pure SWAG - scientific wild ass guess.
