    Alternator pulley education

    At this point, weld on a couple ears for your puller to grab onto. The weld heat will assist with opening up the clearance on the shaft.

    M1078 fan clutch question

    With no air the clutch is engaged. He was right. Double check you have the right fan to go with the clutch you have. The fording switch overrides everything.

    Alternator pulley education

    Does the pulley have threaded holes? If so get some grade 8 bolts, thread them in and attach the puller jaws to the head of those.

    Small under powered pickup meets its replacement

    Yup they shift rough no question about that. And yup when towing something that drags them down. I used to do a lot of flat tows of M37s with it and oh that was awful. Loaded in the bed was not bad.

    S-318/G Shelter, Electrical Equipment

    Yup deer cabin is a good continued use for that one, given every single item is removed from the interior. I won mine from a DRMO auction at Ft Hood back in the 90’s, glad I kept mine inside or I now know what 30 years of sitting outside would do to it.

    Small under powered pickup meets its replacement

    You're thinking of the Reo with the OA331. The 302 moves these GMCs like a scalded dog. Back in the day I drove mine like I stole it, 60 mph against the governor at 3400 RPMs for hours on end.

    Need a 6x6 Road Tractor in Central Florida

    Those 40 ft boxes are 7000 lbs tare. I drag mine around empty with a 915 in a dry grass pasture without issue. The box lifts up about a foot when I pull on it. It’s empty though.

    High pressure oil line

    Sorry people I would not put that on my trucks. Those thin tubes sticking out are much more susceptible to vibration fatigue than oem.

    Tranny, starter, or something else?

    Is the starter still in the proper position being held on by one bolt? Next time a starter bolt breaks that makes your truck NMC. (not mission capable)

    Newbie Needs Advice on HMMWV

    Remember the VIN is only stamped on the main data plate. It is always possible that that plate might get lost requiring you to title it as a 1985. That happened on my 2002.

    I think defina I think definitely rebuilt. I think it got that engine and a new speedometer in 2012 along with the super nice paint job it has. Then USMC drove it for 200 miles and parked it. Then some dumbazz mechanic needed a fording intake years ago and took yours, leaving the intake...

    The A/C compressor goes where the hoses are, they are attached with bolts. The compressor is available. It appears the expensive start box is missing. Your NSN ending in 2007 is correct, it is painted on the hood, and that is the NSN for a 1152A1. The serial number is correct for your year...

    Newbie Needs Advice on HMMWV

    On the naturally aspirated engines, the missing rain cap at the Georgia site meant wet engine. BUT this is a turbo and so few of these have been sold, that MAYBE water did not get into the engine because the turbo and the intake manifold are so high up.

    No, the water has entered the combustion chambers and will sit there before it eventually oozes into the crankcase, but what happens is the steel rings get corroded in place on the aluminum pistons.

    ECV is the hot ticket now. Everything besides the inside of your engine looks great. And I may be wrong about the engine, you never know until you pull the dip stick.

    Being as how I live in the middle of the nation's worst covid hot spot, I kinda admire New Yorkers at the moment.
