    400 amp alternator replaceable bearing?

    Some do some don't have the clutch pulley, IIRC they are about $5-700 bucks for one The reason the 400A pulley is smaller is because they are overdriving the crud out of it so it will produce as much as possible at near idle, not good for the alt and not good for fuel economy, those trucks were...

    That is fine as long as the thing that burned out your regulator was not the alternator, regulators are fairly plentiful but not cheap.

    Also AGAIN post some pictures of your batteries to show how they are wired, something is really wrong if you are killing one battery and the other remains fine

    Again when you disconnected the ground wire it disconnected everything, that the terminal no longer sparks means nothing. Do not do as many do and spend thousands of dollars just replacing stuff, actually find the problem, it could be the starter but also it may not. Do the work and find the...

    Most of the time, as in 95% it is the regulator. BUT go through the testing/diagnosis procedures in the doc I posted for you before buying a regulator.

    There are 3 terminals on the reg, 14V is the largest, IGN is the second largest and AC is the smallest terminal

    When you disconnected the ground from the starter it was just like disconnecting the batteries, you disconnected everything. You bought an old left for dead truck now you are going to have to do some troubleshooting, the starter would not be where I would start. You need to put an ammeter from...

    What TSU?

    Yes remove both check valves, replace with a new pieces of good quality fuel hose, IIRC 5/16 for the return line and 3/8" for the fuel supply line.

    They used to be stamped "off road use only" (paraphrasing) all I have seen sold lately have a "clear" SF-97, as you said it is not stipulated on a clear SF-97 My 1993 M998 I bought about 4 years ago had an off road SF-97, but in TX there is an exemption for any HMMWV with an off road SF-97 and...

    Most states just use the serial number, there are millions of vehicles that do not have a 17 digit VIN, some states issue a 17 digit vin from what I hear, not in Tx though. I hope all works out for you, you said you heard AL was tough to get a title so I am really surprised you did not inquire...

    What did they tell you? I am sure you asked them what kind of title they were going to get issued to you... I seriously doubt you can get another SF97 as they have submitted it to the state of Florida.

    First post M1151A1

    IIRC what is listed is the status of the SF97, the auctions say nothing about a title, also IIRC FL issues off road titles for the HMMWV now, I don't think the status of the SF97 makes any difference. ***Buyer will need to complete and submit a Hold Harmless Agreement before scheduling pickup...

    Question about rim nuts (not lug nuts) on 24 bolt even-spaced rims

    I bought some rims from Trailworthy Fab, they sent them with new nuts that looked just like these, I could feel the nuts start to yield before they reached the specified torque. Re-using the original nuts will be fine as long as they are not damaged, if you want to be anal about it then you...

    Question about rim nuts (not lug nuts) on 24 bolt even-spaced rims

    I would re-use the old nuts before using an ungraded nut.

    I am just curious why did you not just buy the SF97?

    You are probably pretty close with 2007, that year started with 256K according to the serial number sticky on this forum.
