    10.00-15 tires at GENSCO Houston

    They have the mother lode of these for your 172 or 870. All Goodyear around 2014.

    Need crash course in M1078 LMTV

    This truck is 24 volts and there are 4 batteries that need charging up before you try to start it. Avoid “jumping it off” at all costs, that is how electronics get fried on these. My ‘98 came ftom Alaska as well and has the Arctic heaters too.

    "On the road again..."

    Nah Celticlady has the right idea with using the air tool. If you bump up the idle when running the tool, the compressor can keep up easy. Battery tools are useless in the boondocks when the battery is dead.

    Side marker lights

    Sounds like these might be some kind of civilian lights that someone incorrectly installed the military connector on.

    Side marker lights

    Is the light a 12 volt light or a 24 volt light? Where did you buy it?

    Head lights not working

    Yes. Very unlikely that the wire between the light switch and the dimmer is cut.

    M246 Project resurrection

    Looks OK. Make sure you tell anyone you have looking for your driveshafts that your truck is equipped with "mechanics" type u-joints. I see a siren under the hood, the Jeep guys go nuts for those. If the 6602 spins over it will run. That is a great engine.

    Head lights not working

    The two wires from the headlight buckets go directly to the dimmer switch, then a single wire goes to the light switch (within a harness). See if you are getting voltage going into the dimmer switch.

    Head lights not working

    The dimmer switch is not repairable. So to clarify, both high and low beam on both bulbs checks good when you checked them with a meter?

    ABS malfunction

    Maybe oil got all over your ABS wheel sensor and is causing your issue.

    Whining noise after replacing time delay module.

    Sounds kinda like before your fan was on all the time, now it’s cycling, when the fan is off, the “Cadillac valve” makes that sound.

    Head lights not working

    Hmm, are you aware the left lower lever on the 3 lever light switch has to be raised up to illuminate the panel lights? If it’s all the way down in “park” the headlights won’t come on.

    Are "HMMWVS hand made"

    Oh hell no they are not hand made. AMG has a very sophisticated fixture they use to assemble, glue and rivet the body together. That fixture has been in use since the 80's. We will see it at this year's factory tour as part of the MVPA convention.

    M135 Shimmy trouble

    Truck should go 58 mph against the governor smooth as silk. I still think you have a tire coming apart inside.

    Head lights not working

    Thanks for the back story ender. Lots of times people say "how could BOTH headlights be burned out at the same time???" Well trust me the 30 year old bulbs seem to vent out and then they burn out immediately when you power them, I have seen it happen in front of my eyes more than once. Easy...

    Help with M35A1 Frame and Engine ID #'s

    I was looking up those numbers in the ORD-9 and nothing came up in the "Group 15 FRAME AND BRACKETS" section. Then it occurred to me. The 2A7556 is the Army registration number! The depot must have stamped it there prior to a repaint. This number system came into use in 1960, but for some...
