He does a pretty good job of getting difficult to ship stuff to you in one piece, he shipped me a set of supplemental armor doors that came in without any more scratches than they already had! looks like Fastenal!!

And likely not able to put them on the road there, there was a bill ( S.B. 2849 ) but I am not sure if it passed and if it did it was only for former military vehicles 25 years old or older. It would be interesting to see if a service personnel could have one shipped on Uncle Sam's dollar, my...

I installed one of the three circuits hoses today, the compressor discharge to condensers, I took that down the drivers side, one because the right side is going to be crowded as it is and I figure feeding the condensers on the left side and taking the output on the right side will tend to make...

Looks like allot of iron to be hanging on the front of a HMMWV even if you could make it work.

Check all the acc mounting bolts especially the alt mounting bolts.

My wife has been spewing the EMP crud for at least 25-30 years (used to listen to Art Bell and still is an AM junkie) It is hard to imagine how much time and money I have saved by ignoring her. IF and WHEN it ever happens I will deal with it the same way I deal with everything, one thing at a time.

That BG is for a HMMWV but it is a different style, actually a much more desirable one. Likely someone will be able to give you information on where you can get the mounts.

Does not look like it, the FMTV series has round holes for the headlights, this one looks like it possibly had rectangle headlights but I have never seen a US military vehicle with those type of headlights.

Does anyone have a mounting solution for the 5080?

I am a little confused, if it does not use any power after it opens how does it know to close when the power is removed?, also the run power is present during cranking otherwise the engine would not start.

Welcome to the SS forums, take Coug's advice and start a thread and give as much detail as possible.

You should wait until you actually have a HMMWV before trying to re-invent the wheel, it is quite possible the HMMWV you actually buy will have a perfectly good working alt. There will be enough things you have never thought of that will keep you plenty busy without playing the "what if" game.

I don't think that is a smart start box, IIRC that is a really old box, its days were numbered.

Welcome to the SS forums!

Belated welcome to the SS forums!!!

I took my sisters Kubota UTV 1140 that I did a top end job and a ton of maint. back to her ranch near Concan today and stopped by Lytle and picked up a few ammo cans on the way home, they only had 3 HMMWVs on hand all lowly R1s, the tan one has a rebuild motor and the steering is a little wonky...

Every HMMWV I have seen has the cold advance solenoid

You will need a 5 point security torx drive bit to remove the screws, I usually set the bit in the screws and tap on them with a small hammer to help break the screws loose.

It is an o ring and can usually be reused.

Just like your wheel lug nuts these should ALWAYS be torqued with a good torque wrench to specifications. Initial 85ftlb then 125ftlb
