    M923 A1 Axle Question & Prep For Long Drive

    . Another thing to do is get yourself a hand held thermometer. Drive it for an hour, get out and walk around the truck zapping each hub. If you see one that is really hot, start looking for a way to drive off the road and start fixing it. Chances are your hubs will be just fine... Make SURE...

    2000 HMMWV M1123 Project

    . I wouldn't worry about the grease that held the push rod in place for your fuel pump. Soon as you start the truck, that grease will get washed out and eventually dissolve. .

    To get my HMMWV (M1097A2) in good running order... need help.

    . And honestly, if you removed every connection, scrubbed it with a fine wire brush, coated it lightly with Anti-Ox paste, then plugged it back in -- it would take you a week. Maybe less depending on how motivated you are. You and your truck would be much happier! .

    CUCV Heaven, My build of a 1009 and 1008

    . My best guess is that the wire that runs down through the column has rubbed itself bare somewhere along the way. Attach a new piece of 14ga to the old wire and pull it out through the bottom of the column, then thread it to where it touches the wiring harness.

    New brush truck...should I keep?

    . Well... Two batteries should be more than enough to turn the truck over. Not especially going to start it, but it should at least "grunt" or try to turn over. You might need to investigate a little before you plugged in the batteries. There has to be a starter. Question is this: Is it the...

    . Welcome to the Outfit! Looks like you have finally done it... You got your very own HMMWV! Be sure to go download the TM's (Technical Manuals) for your truck. The -10 might be really useful so you don't "cook" your PCB and/or the glowplugs. .

    prices on 1097a2 vs 1152

    . All it takes is two people willing to "go for it" on a bid and you can find incredibly high bids... Just need to remember that chances are you won't drive over to California and crank up your 10k truck and drive it home. Wouldn't recommend it even if it did start. You need to factor in...

    Questions about my m54 5 ton.

    . Well, you definitely have a quandary. Me personally, I think I would fix the brakes first. It could be as simple as refilling the reservoir and bleeding the brakes. Start bleeding from the fartherest point, generally the back axle. Then progress to the intermediate axle, then to the...

    Tension Spring Safety Question

    . I agree that if the spring breaks, the gate/ramp might fall on you. I wonder if there is a maintenance schedule for those springs? I have a larger trailer that is hydraulically power up and power down. I t doesn't have a check valve in the system - so if a hose breaks - You better run...
