    M1070 Tech & Tips

    I has the first 3 MTS systems in the Army. We put them 3 PLS's, and BN SPO had the master control station. Didn't work worth a dam. Good to see they got it going!

    M1070 Tech & Tips

    I had the first versions of Applique +, POSNAV, and MTS when I was at Hood in 97-01... It was called FBCB2 and now BLUEFOR Tracker... The first versions of MTS totally sucked.

    M1070 Tech & Tips

    MTS systems need the satellites and ground stations to make them work? Uncle Sam won't be surplusing the satellites any time soon. So other than to look cool, it has no purpose in civy hands.

    M901A1 TOW missile launcher

    Back in 1997/8 or so, many M901's became donors to the new OSV vehicle used at the National Training Center. 2 M901 chassis' were cut down and were mated to a Bradley turret. Neat vehicles. Those items are armored vehicle smoke grenade launchers.

    Troop seats

    If you cant find the correct NSN ones, check into the 5 ton ones, you may have to drill some new holes in them and cut them down a bit, but they may be easier to find.

    Bad deuce light switch?

    I'll bet 3 lever works just fine when you plug it in. The push button switch fries internally.

    24 volts for the HMMWV

    Glow plug connectors

    Do you need the orange boots and associated wiring for them? If so, PM me. I have a bad harness I can get you the parts you need.

    M989A1 Trailer Pintle Hitch Plate Size Needed for Possibly Recovery ????

    Towing that trailer with anything less than an air brake equipped truck is illegal and inviting disaster.

    Bad deuce light switch?

    The new style switches suck. They are known to cause fires in wiring harnesses, and as you discovered, to go out when you need them to work. Toss it and put in the 3 lever. The coolness factor wears off very fast when you suddenly have no headlights when driving at night.

    Same 60 amp generator in the M998, M35A2, M800 series, M900 series and a bunch of others. Shop around.

    Humvee Radio

    Red to pos terminal on one battery, black to neg terminal on the other battery, so you get the 24V. Read the Installation TM's.
