Hi all. Replaced my carrier bearing today on the front propeller shaft because the other one was falling apart. I noticed that the old bearing was angled just like the new bearing after installation. Bearing was installed correctly and the shaft is perfectly straight so I’m a little bit stumped...

Hi all My rig is a 2006 M1097A2. Experiencing power steering whine when turning and accelerating at the same time. Power steering pump is the style with the reservoir attached. Fluid level is good. I’m about to dig into the TM manual to try to diagnose but looking for tips from you...

Tobash i would love to see a pic of this when complete. Sounds like a good idea.

Mogman I finally got the SF-97 today. It appears when threatened with legal action they can actually print out one of these things on the fly that’s how they are able to produce when lawyers get involved. Good to know for future purchases.

Good evening. My rig is a 2006 1097A2 non-turbo. Rainwater is collecting on the top of the intake manifold valley and not draining away. I’m able to verify that the valley hole is not clogged and im able to get a wire down in there. However, the exit hole appears to have a freeze plug in it. As...

Excellent. I already mentioned something to my attorney about it but don’t know what to instruct her to do. Did your attorney pretty much just send a letter of inquiry? You can PM me if you’d rather discuss it that way. Thank you

Mogman any status updates regarding your SF-97?

Coincidentally when I texted my contact today, she said she would get back to me in a few minutes because they just received a big batch of them today. Haven’t heard from her since that message. Maybe things are looking up for us both? On another note, how would I go about getting the contact...

Mogman keep me posted please. I’m on the verge of having my attorney contact them but I don’t want to slow things up anymore. The girl in charge seems sincere and says that she’s doing her best but she’s blaming it on the army. At this point I don’t know who’s telling me the truth but I’m going...

That’s what I was thinking. Are those connectors normally plugged into each other from the factory?

Mogman the switch has been locked to the weld off position. Is that potentially affecting my fan at the moment? I’m just a little bit nervous about removing it or changing things. Like I said I’m definitely a newbie with these rigs so apologies in advance for any over cautious concerns or...

I finally got around to installing a Schwend Waterjet keyed ignition today (great concept and product) and while I was at it, I was trying to decipher whether or not to remove a welding switch on my dash. Apparently this was a contact Truck with a welder in the back. The wire leads are labeled...

Will do. Being that I’m still waiting on the sf97 and will just be taking it around my neighborhood for now, do you have a suggestion for a fuel additive to keep the diesel fresh or is it even worth it? Thanks for all your help

Just out of curiosity what was the purpose of moving to that newer style sender? I’m assuming so the soldiers wouldn’t wait until the last minute to fuel up and not run these things dry?

Mogman you are correct. I added 2 gallons and it jumped to 1/4 tank. There’s at least 11 gallons in the tank. Maybe in the future I will upgrade to the more modern sending unit just for a little bit more accuracy. Thanks again

Mogman thank you. I will drive it around for a while before condemning it. It was reading a quarter tank consistently for the past few days. As soon as I got through with the vacuum procedure the needle immediately sank to right above E and despite re-bleeding with the screw, opening and...

Hi all. Changed out my fuel filter in my 1097A2 yesterday and used procedure outlined in the technical manual. I used the bleeder screw on top to purge air. Today I wanted to be super sure that all the air was out so I used a vampire pump at the fuel filter outlet on top of the housing to draw...

Thank you very much for the quick reply. It is indeed an army vehicle shipped to me from Alabama, if that makes a difference. The person at govplanet told me that I can file a dispute if I want to, but I told her I just want my title. Not sure what filing a dispute is going to do to help the...

Hope some of you knowledgeable folks can help me with my current issue. I purchased a HMMWV from govplanet back in August 2023. EUC cleared within 10 days and truck was delivered to my residence shortly after. I opted to get full title from them to lessen any potential problems at my local DMV...
