    Beat to heck GovPlanet Humvee

    I think it is because the GP legal dept was reminded it is illegal to sell a vehicle without a title in most states.

    Dana 6453 question.

    Simplest would be to find a International medium with the same engine and a manual trans and swap all components across including the bellhousing.

    M185A3 To M934 24V Slave Cable Plug Type...

    CBRmetalworks makes a nice adapter to install the NATO receptacle in place of the 2 prong receptacle. I would upgrade to NATO.

    My FMTV arrived today.

    I am hearing from folks that have used the FMTVs for flood rescue work that the axles are not getting water intrusion like we see with the old gen deuces and 5 tons.

    Tires, can it really be this hard??

    Agreed with cranetruck. The NDCC tires are better in the mud than 395s as well, is what we are hearing from the mud bogging crowd.

    M920 trans issue

    I used about a shot glass full of Marvel oil in mine. If the main oil looks clean I would not change it. Search "Cat 7155" on here for others experiences with this issue.

    Did you possibly connect the hoses backwards? I did that and the pump runs, but of course no movement.

    M920 trans issue

    Any time a 7155 is unresponsive in a gear, that is an indication that the dozens of plungers in the control body are sticking. Start by adding air tool oil to the line feeding the transmission over by the muffler, and hope that fixes it. An airline lubricator is next, there are several posts...

    FMTV Air Hydraulic Unit Repair

    Are you SURE you put the u cup in the right way. The open part of the u should face the hydraulic oil so the pressure expands it.

    Electrical Problem?

    I knew the chinese coils were crap but this is a new low. Find a US surplus coil and yes make sure the vent system works.

    My MRAP CAIMAN 2's mini build thread !!

    Wow! Are the sides individual plates welded together or did you have large sheets bent on a press brake? Looks bent in the pics. Another picture deal will come along, just need to get the word out. Maybe the next Divergent movie.

    M1078 LMTV oil pressure issue-jittery gauge

    Only way too much oil could affect oil pressure is if the level is so high the crank hits it and turns the crankcase into a churned up mess.
