    Coolant Overflow Tank Fail!

    Althing runner has a shelf life....once it's up, it's surplused out. even rivets have a shelf life in aviation...the lubricant applied to them actually has a shelf life, not the actual rivet. the box is one tell tale sign, but anything I've seen NOS has mfg no., NSN etc on them....nothing= After...

    Voltage gauge pegged red high

    Simple....the regulator failed. It's ok to start the truck to at least get an output reading, but did you attempt to turn down the output?...remove the Allen head and a screw driver to see if it will adjust.

    Upgraded seat install

    If they were in fact NOS kits...they are.....you get 2 seats, one for the battery box and one for the seat base. the install parts are all in a flat box.

    If you bought the kit, the passenger seat has longer studs....the drivers seat are shorter studs.

    Slant back top installation paperwork

    There is no paperwork...adding a slantback kit is not an MWO. As far as I know, an M998 was never converted to an m10xx truck....they come this way from AM General.

    Noisy axles at LMTV

    NDT...to recap please....4 o'clock, check each hub and fill correct.. and yes,diffs are seperate...so,that's a no brainier. I Will liken it too a HMMWV, it has 4 geared hubs and 2 diffs...all need fuild. Would it be recommended to go to 6'oclock and drain and refill at 4?

    FMTV questions

    i printed the Lube order, why does it not have the fluid type for diffs listed but everything else?
  14. Retiredwarhorses

    FMTV questions

    so the rears should be dry? And if wet, that means the diff is overfill?

    HMMWV Half Shafts

    FOr anyone doing this..fyi, the military does not use nord locks, they are used on the civ trucks. No harm no foul. also, the bolts are metric...not inch. The head is not what a normal American metric head is..so you have to order them from a vendor,who sells them for a Hummer H1. factory AMG...

    Do HMMWVs / m998s pass emissions test?

    In calif only 98 and above get smog tests...that's waht when you do a Duramax conversion you get a 97.5 and below. also depends on the county...
