    VIC-3 whistling noise with Engine rpm

    Well, thank you! I took my time on it and it turned out nicer than I had hoped. Here is the writeup I did on it awhile back: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/vic-1-intercom-panel-for-soft-tops.188122/

    My first multifuel?

    Must be very exciting and satisfying to see all the large panel assemblies go back together. It's like building a toy model!

    VIC-3 whistling noise with Engine rpm

    FWIW...I ran my ground cable from the AM-1870 attaching bolt (1 of the 4) to the same battery ground terminal that the AM-1870 power cable was wired to.

    939 & 920 size comparison

    That picture looks hot. I can feel the heat just by looking at it.

    939 & 920 size comparison

    These are the quickest ones I could find from the PNW chapter's New Year's ocean beach run. Not sure if this is an M920 or M916...(Pics by Peter Lahmann)

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I did a search of the NSN number and it popped up from a seller on a site called Bonanza. At the time they had 20 of them NOS in the wrapper but that was several years ago

    I finally joined the club and bought my first MV! - M813A1

    I went back to the spot of the original picture from when I first brought the truck home to do a before and after. There's 5 years, 3 months and many mods in between the two. I've done so much to it that I'm starting to run out of projects 😬

    M813 muffler alternative options?

    The stock muffler is pretty effective at reducing noise. I didn't realize how much so until I took mine off...

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Today my brother and I got the level wind installed and functional. It turned out to be a 45,000 lb unit from the rear winch of a M816 or M936 so 3 of the 4 mounting holes had to be altered and all of the movements were froze up. All the lower fittings of the trolley were caked up solid so...

    NHC250 metal in oil

    I wonder if it could be part of an oil filter?

    @WillWagner might recognize it if it's from the engine

    Better axle boots?

    I bet the silicone boots might withstand the elements a bit better. I think those are 1-piece units.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    That does sound like a good deal and it looks pretty nice - almost as cool as an M813!...;)

    WA state cancelling MV titles

    Idaho Motor Pool is auctioning off a pile of blank SF97 forms (real ones) this month. Just thought I'd mention that, you know, for academic purposes... https://jbsauctions.hibid.com/catalog/168277/idaho-motor-pool-military-surplus-reduction-auction/?cpage=3

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    I finally worked up the nerve and replaced the water pump belt and the power steering belts. Yeah, the ones in the very back... ...now my entire spine hurts
