You are very wise to buy an Eastern unit. The Eastern 1025 GMVs are special trucks and did not rot for ages unused in GA or CA. Love mine, runs like a scalded dog.
For sure. Hundreds of fire departments all over the US have these trucks now and desperately need repair parts to keep them operational for years to come.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
