It's a lot easier to carry fuel cans than it is to find an outlet.
Then again, you can always just tow a 15k or larger single phase generator (do they sell a 3 phase charger?) and then be back into the same boat.
The other hand once you dump fuel in you can go driving again immediately, with...
It really depends on what you use your HMMWV for. It wouldn't work for me because I tend to do heavy towing a lot mixed with long drives. Unless I wanted to take my generator with me everywhere to keep it charged up I'd be stranded a lot.
Now if someone was building something like a rock...
You want TM 9-2320-280-20-2 chapter 8 "WHEELS AND STEERING MAINTENANCE"
IT CAN BE FOUND HERE:
https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/tms-for-the-m998-series-hmmwv.78861/
You will want to download and save to your computer every TM on that page, as it's all the tech and parts manuals. Once you...
This link is to the datasheet showing the military cable connector identification system
https://www.mouser.com/datasheet/2/18/Class%20L%20PDS-1157250.pdf
And these links match what those numbers say, and also match the "UEC 32-12" spacer in the middle of the one you posted a picture of in the...
You just need enough weight on the tongue, making the tongue lower does help shift the center of gravity a little forward if you are low on tongue weight, but other than that I don't see how it would affect the amount of noise.
With the 4 speed you not only have to buy the switch, there is also a little metal actuator plate to go with the switch and activate it. For me finding that was more difficult than getting the switch was.
Yeah, it is surprisingly good.
After all the stress of finding all the parts individually, as well as making all the wires and connections and whatnot; if I have to do it again I'm just buying this kit. The few dollars saved aren't worth the hassle.
usually for the NO.CO chargers they will stay with whatever the last charger setting was, unless it's been a long time. Can't comment for the 26000, but I have the 7500 and 15000. It's just hook it up, and if it isn't the right setting press the button a couple of times.
Putting it to the...
So to my understanding that 200 amp transfer switch is required because the service to the house is rated at 200 amps. The generator size doesn't really matter as long as it's maximum possible output is LESS than the 200 amps the switch and panel are rated for.
The way the code works though is...
So I'm slightly confused with what you are trying to say/accomplish.
You mention adding a battery maintainer, and I assume to wire it in using a shore power type inlet plug at the rear of the truck requiring you to run a power cable from wherever you mount the maintainer in the truck to that...
You can piece it together yourself, but for not much more money for the wiring there are kits available

first step, find an original ignition switch to replace the aftermarket one.
The aftermarket switches are notorious for causing all types of electrical system issues, as well as the possibility of catching fire and burning up your truck.
it varies city/country around here. Some areas don't care, others won't let you do anything without a permit and inspection, and they can get really pissy about things they don't understand. Stanby generators fall under that category for a lot of the inspectors around here.
so here is a manual for one of the other models, but a lot of the information is going to be the same or very similar for this one.

but to answer the question, yeah, I was going to strip everything off and turn it into a utility type trailer. The hole where the gen sits will need to be filled, but it already has bars along the side/top to make a decent start for walls, or just cut them all off and make it a flatbed. It's...
For this trailer it could be either a 20kw or a 33/35kw, but definitely 3 phase. The one we had in Korea this size was a 12 ton ECU and 35kw generator. I towed it with a 5 ton.
I have one of the smaller chassis I turned into a surrogate drash setup, an 802A and a 3 ton nordicair with 1/3 of...
