it's kind of a toss up as to whether to paint it at this point. One of the local guys might be able to acquire me a cover for it in tan, in which case I'll likely just leave it tan. If I get one in green/camo, then it will get painted.

Isn't that what they referred to as "ballistic glass"? The main idea of the ballistic windows, to my understanding, was a layer of glass, then on the inside there was a layer of plastic the purpose of which was to keep the glass from all shattering into the occupant' faces when it got hit by...

Today I went over and looked at a 2012 M1102 trailer I've been wanting to buy for a while. Belongs to one of the guys in the local military vehicle group. Will need to take it in for State Patrol to do a VIN inspection on it, but got it home without incident. Took off one of the rear landing...

Might be easiest to buy a NATO end for the cable you already have. Not cheap, but looks like you can get one for under $100 on ebay. Do that and a couple of Anderson style SB350 or maybe just the SB175 as you're talking smaller loads (not sure what gauge your cable is) to make one end swappable...

Here is one source for a packard connector "Y" splitter. https://www.bigmikesmotorpool.com/collections/m998-hmmwv-parts/products/female-packard-y-connector-for-splicing-ms27147-1 They also have decent pricing on the packard connectors as well, at $1.50 each or $13.50 for a 10 pack. It's where...

Guyfang, do these generators need to have batteries in them to stay running once the 28V power supply is removed?

Going through some related items to products I was looking at, I came across this charger. It doesn't list any of the actual specs, only that it will charge batteries down to 1 volt. At $180 it's cheaper than some of the other options I've seen in the past, doesn't have to be permanently...

Are you sure that you read/posted that correctly? Most places have regulations that a generator is NOT allowed to be within a minimum distance (5 feet on propane/natural gas home standby units) of any house openings to prevent exhaust and carbon monoxide from entering the home. "can only be 10...

They seem to sell pretty quickly at $1k per door, or $4k+ for a 4 door set. For 2 doors I'd expect somewhere between $2k and $2500. Out of the price range I am willing to spend on them.

In my unit you were assigned a vehicle to take care of. Usually that would also be the one that you drove or rode in. Sometimes it was just whichever vehicle for your particular duty section had seats in, or needed a driver for. I was assigned to an M934A2 5 ton expando van. I was also part...

Agree with action, they are supposed to be wellnuts, not rivnuts for those spots.

I ordered them Friday after you posted this. They arrived today. Use by date code of 13, but packaging is all still intact so I see no reason why they wouldn't still be good.

It was kind of funny/sad reading some of the reviews on this particular charger. It seems like a few of these units have one output set fail, while the other still works. The second most common 1 star review is people who don't understand that if you have batteries wired in parallel, they...

For the NO.CO GEN5X2 2 bank 5 amp charger someone asks a similar question: Question: Q:I have 2 12 volt trolling motors wired to provide 24 bolts. Does the crossover wire need disconnected for charging?Do you hook it up with cross over Answer: Each 12V battery should be connected to its own...

You understood it correctly. Using a multi battery charger with leads to each battery is a better charging method than using a single 24V charger, especially if your truck is still using a 60 amp generator. 24V is easier if it isn't a permanent installation.

The big problem here is it's not actually 50% off, or however much they are claiming. If you go straight to the NO.CO website, all of the prices are 20-30% lower than the amazon listings. Still a sale price, but not a major one. Correction, a couple of them are the same price, like the GB50 is...

Have you checked with a laser thermometer to see if the radiator is actually heating up? There could be some type of blockage or your new thermostat might not be functioning properly.

Unfortunately NO.CO has discontinued all of their consumer level 12/24V chargers, and the cheapest one they offer is $500.

I'd never actually seen it before, but in my experience anything with a vented guard like that is likely exhaust related, and the only thing I could think of that might have an exhaust pipe there would be an arctic/ personnel heater. After that it was just a quick search to find images that...

appears to be the exhaust tube for the swingfire heater system https://hummer-hmmwv.tpub.com/TM-9-2320-280-20-3/css/TM-9-2320-280-20-3_678.htm https://hummer-hmmwv.tpub.com/TM-9-2320-280-20-3/css/TM-9-2320-280-20-3_676.htm
