It's called a combat rim because the tire can be shot full of holes but will not come off the bead, allowing the vehicle to continue to drive and fight.

It's a problem with the valve body. Once in a while mine gets confused like that as well. Add a good bit of Mystery oil into the air line feeding the 7155 and hope for the best. Reman valve bodies are available if that does not fix it.

Blown CV joint.

The mil sites need power with 100% reliability or soldiers die. In combat you can't drop power to a hospital or radio station because you need to add a quart of oil after a generator has run 30 days straight.

That engine has wet sleeves, meaning there are O-rings between the cylinder and block. The water can be coming from there as well.

In military applications, that switch typically switches (transfers) ALL the load from one generator to the other so maintenance can be performed on one generator. The switch on older generators transferred the load without regard to whether or not the generators were in synchronization...

The only reason I can think of that someone would put a gas sucking Chevrolet engine with spark plugs in a HMMWV is because nobody told them that you can buy a turbocharged GEP 6.5 from Southern Metals for peanuts and get all the horsepower a HMMWV will ever need or handle without snapping...

The frame rails on the deuce are not the same dimensions as any standard C Channel and neither is the winch mount. You could find a fabricator with a brake press to make the channels for you. Or do what I do, fold down the engine side panels and sit on those when servicing the engine.

Oh no, that's an O ring issue. Maybe it's split. No hope to repair properly without disassembly. Double check your crankcase vent to be sure the oil is not being forced out.

You are super lucky, your truck has the Memphis Equipment "REB" shift kit installed, it makes the Hydramatic into a powershift style transmission. The stock Hydramatic valve body never seems to shift when you want it to. Replace the in-tank fuel pump with an aftermarket pump mounted near the...

Options: sell the tracks to a Sherman owner, scrap the rest; find a M4 missing running gear and two to make one; repower and sell/use as a dozer or winch tractor.

You already drilled holes for the side mount???????

Welcome. The VIN will be in two places, on the main data plate to the right of the glove box, and on the right frane rail, above the front axle forward spring perch area.

That turret looks 100% better than that way too heavy M66. If you post a pdf of the adapter you had made I would be forever thankful.

Time for a LDS465, you won't regret it.

Battery? As in one battery? What year model truck?

Back in the day we would buy M880s with a similar full time transfer case, of course DRMO would bend the rear driveshaft by forklifting, we would pull that and drive home using the front axle only.

Accumulating OVM to equip my M1081. Going to be a long term project.

Was your local hydraulic shop able to rebuild the cylinder?

Anyone got the straight scoop on this? Looks like A2 and A3 trailers. I ask because Uncle has already sold a bunch of these and DOZENS are in use here at the Port of Houston area hauling 30 ton coils of steel.
