So it appears that 10SFG took a cue from USMC and plans to circumvent DRMO and sell their own stuff? I guess those sf "operator" types always kinda ran their own show anyway.

Yes you can. Run a #8 fine strand black wire if none is there.

Not for a FMTV.

The PTO hole and bolt pattern is a SAE standard, but the gear mesh is SPECIFIC TO WHAT THE PTO BOLTS TO! It's really difficult to tell from pictures, you need to check part numbers.

Thought so. The Prestolite 60 amp military alternator was just fine until Uncle started sourcing clones from quite a few manufacturers. The clone voltage regulators (which fit Prestolite) can't handle real life and go berserk.

"Years of trouble free" ah, ok. I prefer military Hawker AGMs.

If you dig into that situation, that is why they started borescoping the engines, because of that occurrence.

Ted's Trucks n Stuff is my top pick for a tested boroscoped GEP 6.5. I will never rebuild another crack prone GM 6.2 or 6.5 given the seeming endless supply of GEP engines.

My understanding it that the Budd number range does not necessarily give you the correct year. What can, however, is the registration number painted on the hood. Is it still there under coats of paint?

He could have a 3 phase generator from WWII and he would have the same problem. A qualified electrician will be able to spec an appropriate transformer to go to 208Y.

Oshkosh was on a roll with design on the M-ATV, but this is the ugliest truck they have ever produced, and they have made some stinkers. So I guess a bigger engine wouldn't fit under the Stewart and Stevenson designed cab, and they were too lazy to retool the cab, so they cheaped out and put...

Google "CCC Centaur". I say no but hope to be corrected.

Visit Walmart and look at the Wrangler Authority only they carry. Tread pattern the same as HMMWV MTR. I was sold and love 'em on my '09.

If you want to see woefully inadequate, go see GP's yard in Hooks, Texas at Red River Depot. Basically a mud pit where all rolling stock is side handled by a front end loader with forks. I have seen demolition derbies where the cars had less damage, all inflicted by GP. GP still does not...

Very disappointed GP is following the GL's silly inefficient model of trucking all this stuff all over the country, only to have us have to truck it all back all over the country. Sell it where is as is at the bases on the DRMO yards. The surplus brings the same money regardless of where it is...

Welcome. A M135 was my first deuce as well and I still have it after many years. They are great dependable trucks. Good luck with yours.

Suggest remove cut off switch temporarily to eliminate it as the problem.

Tell us about this battery cutoff switch you installed. Is it on or off? In which wire?

It is impossible to drill out a tap. Where is the big ground cable coming from the batteries? Don't drill into the cylindrical part of the starter, if you penetrate the housing, the starter will be ruined.

If something metal accidentally falls on those posts it will burn your house down. Suggest connecting the ring terminal whip from your charger directly to the Nato plug terminals.
