actualily, folks Should be replacing all hose clamps and rubber hoses…in my shop, we do not reuse hose clamps, or attempt to tighten them further, they are generally loose because the rubber has shrunk as the hoses have dried out.

And…200amps isn’t technically overkill, the AC alone is 30amps, you technically per the TM cannot run a red dot system without a 100amp, but that was old guidance when A2’s were relevant…most modern trucks run 130amp on up to 400amp.

First thing I see in that pic is the extra 14v tap wire going somewhere, the 2nd is the pulley on the Gen, I see visible groves where the belt should be.

im sure it can be done, but time is money in My shop…plus I have to warrant what I instal, so it’s just easier to install an OEM compressor. there are lots vbelt belt compressors on the market though…

50mph was you’re statement…not mine, so a freeway, interstate , back road, do we really need to get that granular… Daily now I’m seeing folks post only after damage is incurred before asking the basics of questions on how to prepare these trucks for a maiden voyage. So like many others newbs...

first off, stop driving the truck around at 4k RPM…you can test shifting with just normal down the street for a short distance, your transmission is in 2nd gear limp mode, it’s not meant to run down the freeway at 50mph, it’s meant to get to a safe spot an pull over. the transmission lamp...

2012 is the reset date, they didn’t make m1114’s in 2012, its probably a late 90’s-2004. doing 80mph is for a fool…don’t care which model you have…but hey, Darwinism is alive and well.

Finding the exact kit for the slant back may be a bit of a chore, there were the a couple kits, one specifically built I believe for the m1123’s with the diag module. i would just Find any RD kit for a hmmwv, making sure to find one for a serpentine truck if you ended up buying a v-belt kit, you...

NO TCM lamp? No shifting of the transmission, the lamp lit during startup is a “Hey, I see the TCM” A lamp that doesnt extinguish while running, is a TCM that does not see the motor running… check power to the TCM at the batteries

this is a non-issue…I’ve removed plenty of tcases with no issues.

I wouldn’t, use the nato slave connector. That turret battery charging cables has a circuit breaker on the end in the accessory location

It’s for charging the batteries for the electric turret “MCTAGS”

No one is counter fitting these tools or labels…it’s a surplus tool and probably surplus because “uhhh”, they were found to not work or were defective.

that model of tool is garbage…it is not the OEM version I’ve had for 25yrs

The part number is on the hose generally, at the component end…you won’t fine a shop that has those wonky ends AMG used. one thing I like about the dual barrier ac hose is that I can use EZ clip anywhere, these trucks use single barrier hose and that means you can only Use compression crimp...

well, that’s one way to get a new transmission out it…

The sf97 tracker is a broken tool…

Someone attempted to just buy and install a regulator not meant for that generator. Unplug that thing…you can still start the truck with the regulator.

This is a lesson in futility, get with you’re truck and start going over it…inside, on top and especially underneath.
