Yeah, guess we all would prefer to see "Made with Pride in USA" written on the box.... FWIW:

Yes. Same thing, different source: https://www.ebay.com/itm/176166115720

Super nice - well done...! :goodjob: I admire your skills and patience to be able to create such a perfect model without having the real thing sitting close-by.

Suspicion confirmed! Here... While I called it a "West Coast" I did notice that it wasn't the 2.5ton version. This great picture shows them both, side by side. There must be a reason they put the extra wide 10-ton mirrors on those tankers (?)

What you see in that picture is the so-called West Coast mirror, which is not period-correct for the gasser trucks. The very early gassers came with the (flimsy) one-arm mirrors and corresponding brackets, on both sides. Later they added a second arm on the drivers side, and the bracket was...

Denied... Not true! Not moved back instantly... but then ASAP, yes! And since you already opened a second "swap meet" thread, I would like to move over above posts #22-26. Hope you don't mind (?)

Great job! One has to look twice to realize it's only a model.:goodjob:

Oops... not so fast old brain!:oops: I thought I had moved it to the HMMWV forum, yes.... but instead it went to the HMMWV-TM forum. My bad!! (And that also explains the no-privilege sign.) The thread in question is now in the HMMWV forum and the OP should be able to find it.

https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/missing-tm-page.223484/ This was first posted in the Website-Help-forum so I moved it to the HMMWV section - for now. I don't know about that "Insufficiency......."-thing ?? It sure wasn't there this morning....

You are looking for parts for the ballistic WS, I guess.... Go to this TM, Fig. 226 (And you are right, for some reason TM-9-2320-387-24P doesn't list part #s 1-22, even being that its latest change was in 2009, vs. 2004 for TM 9-2320-280-24P1)

No gasket, there.

Sounds like your radiator inlet Ø isn't stock size (?) It should measure 1.75"

This change was done today, not sure why.... ?? I agree, it looks kind of weird (especially for us "old-school" who were taught to always start a new sentence at the very left of page.)

They should be there - from factory at least.

Each one has a different part number, so they are not the same. TM 9-2320-280-24P, Fig. 234 - 239

Bobbed alternator...??

Yes, but under normal operating conditions they usually don't crack. On the other hand it takes just one serious overheat (e.g. from a failed radiator hose detected too late...) to cause one or both heads to crack between the valves. And once the heads ran dry the kit in Q. won't help at all...

Yes, about 4.5" I took an old drawing I posted long ago and added that plate with the radiator in the right location. From the fender edge to center of rad stud holes I measured 3.35" (could be +/- 0.1) It is less than 3 inches, actually. I just posted that here, a few days ago....
