    Which military truck is the most capable? Good survival vehicle?

    When y'alls gas sucking Toyotas are out of gas, abandoned on the side of the road, I will pull up in my multifuel deuce and punch a hole in your oil pan and transmission pan and fuel up with 3 gallons of your oil.

    M1025A2 Question

    The 2002 will have (from the factory) a GEP engine and the 1995 will have a GM engine, which is more prone to cracks.

    Thank you! Texas here!

    Welcome from south of houtx. Question, if your truck is in your driveway, why does it keep showing up on the spam ads I get from Govplanet?

    Passenger side switches

    Those are brush truck add-ons. In military service there are no switches there.

    200 A alternator probably shot - but why, and what now ?

    As said, the Niehoff regulators are what burn out, not the actual alternator. The regulator sees no high current. And the crappy HMMWV start boxes are not involved with charging current either.

    M-37 Oil Pressure {Gauge}

    The 0-60 gauge has a specific sending unit as does the 0-120. There is a PS article about this, as the Army has been mismatching these forever. I would put a mechanical gauge on the truck temporarily to rule out the engine.

    200 A alternator probably shot - but why, and what now ?

    Niehoff really needs to step up their game. No reason for their products to be so unreliable. Similar problems on FMTVs.

    Plan to buy a 3D printer

    3D printing is a hobby thing not a manufacturing thing. Maybe for prototypes. In manufacturing we turn out widgets every minute or less, no time for hobby machines. Must use injection molding.

    I will have to tow 1031A - Anyone tried (what do you think) a tow dolly?

    X2 on what Keith advised. If you have to back up, turn the key off or the wheels will go to full steer. What is sticking out of the hood? Looks like a bird feeder but maybe it’s a fording extension?

    M1081 Injectors

    How far did you flat tow it with no oil in the axles or transmission?

    M1081 Injectors

    Army took care of that one as opposed to most 1081s. I would run some diesel conditioner though it before I messed with the cat. Mine smoke a little too when you get on them hard. Does yours still have the turret ring installed?
