    Fan

    Welcome from League City. You have a MTV "Medium Tactical Vehicle" made a few miles down I-10 from you. The clutch in your picture is missing pieces and not sure what style fan that is. Get ahold of Eastern Surplus and have them send you a new fan and clutch.

    Fun with PA DOT officer ending in putting me out of service + $1200 in fines

    Except in the OP's case, the renta-LEO didn't care and left that determination for the courts.

    Thanks for the add, finally picked up my 1990 M1037 looking forward to minting "THOR"

    Welcome. Where did you find a M1037? Yes you can swap out the rear springs, they do not deflect AT ALL with no shelter load.

    Changing all 4 belts.

    You will need to disconnect the hose that attaches to the fan clutch.

    Changing all 4 belts.

    Don't you just wiggle the belts over the fan? Removing the fan is no fun.

    Resurrecting a waterlogged mep-803A

    Good luck with it, the engine may come back to life. I bought a M880 truck (318 engine) long ago that was full of water, it fired up and I drove it for years.

    How reliable can I expect a "new" 2012 MTV to be? What locking diff options exist?

    Since so few Cummins powered Brazos were sold, there is literally no field experience with them. If you are buying your chassis from Worldwide in Houston, I can give it a going over for you as the dealership is close to my day job.

    HMMWV Headlights go out intermittently. Bad switch????

    The scenario you are describing has not been discussed here. My guess is that the alternator voltage regulator is failing, and your LED headlights have over overvoltage protection that is cutting them out.

    My only problem when I was daily driving my deuce was that when you put all your bags of groceries in the bed, they get scattered all around the bed by the time you get home.

    FMTV engine won’t start ... engine oil pressure?

    There is no auto shut down circuit on the FMTVs related to oil pressure. Oil pressure is not required to crank the engine.

    Deuce crash in Winston-Salem, NC, 11/2017

    Deuce headlights not burning either at night. I'll never understand why people think they can get away with "driving dirty" just because they are behind the wheel of a former military vehicle.

    Original SW M37 temp gauge issues

    Since that gauge is aftermarket anyway, throw it away and get a new one. Factory was a 24 volt electric gauge.

    1954 Studabaker REO rear window

    Rusty that is an aftermarket hard top. That is why we are all so befuddled.

    Thanks for the link. Bottom line is leave injector work to the cat house.
