Todd - I'm admittedly still in shock!!!!! So sorry about your misfortune.... But it sounds like your not gonna be sidetracked from your mission. That's inspirational! Had a tough year also, (nothing like yours), had to move my entire shop and now recovering from 2 minor strokes 10/5 and 11/11...

I'm interested in changing it because: 1) If the 60 Presotlite fails, I have access to 100 amp Niehoff Generators (12423625) Dual voltage 2) I'm not necessarily changing it - I'm curious if it's been done and whether the 100 amp dual will retrofit easily (and how) as a back up option and to...

Has anyone installed a 100 Amp Niehoff Gen as replacement for a 60 AMP? I have a 1991 M998 Hmmwv with 6.2L engine and 60 AMP Generator. I also have a good NIEHOFF 100 AMP Dual Voltage Generator that I was thinking of installing. Found parts / installation figures in TM 24P, but it refers to the...

Wow - thanks to all of you for the feedback and input. Learned A LOT during this repair. Soon after my last post, I managed to find the TM (thanks to SS) and found the correct removal AND re-install procedure for the damper. Reading that along with seeing the condition of the key (and keyway)...

Looks GREAT - keep the photos coming! Can't wait to see how it turns out. The tranny you sold me is in the Air Force M37 and I'm working on the engine re-build. My Air Force M37 - Rebuilt Engine and New Trans This engine being re-built for the M43 Ambulance (seen in background of first photo)

Below are some photos I took yesterday. QUESTION - while going through the TM's regarding removal and replacement of the damper and seal(s), it mentions TWO front seals - an 'inner' and 'outer' seal. When searching for front seals on line, I only find one - and none of the vendors mention that...

VERY interesting. So... If it's old / dry rotted or hardened, the vibration isn't absorbed which could cause the balancer itself to fail (crack)? Can the rubber be inspected?

GREAT Thanks!!

The first one was installed by a good friend (very knowledgeable regarding deuces - he has two). HOWEVER, while installing the first replacement, he tapped it with a hammer and broke the edge of the pulley. He replaced that one and installed it using a tool like a reverse puller. I don't know...

Ok- good questions and thoughts - I agree about the fact that two in four years would not seem to be from service. I only drive the truck in the summer months for shows, parades and events. I do drive it a lot, but not daily. I would say about 700 to 1000 miles a year (that would be high). I am...

Front seal on my 1971 M35A2 began leaking for the second time in 4 years. In both cases, we found the hub of the harmonic balancer cracked along the key way slot. This part of the hub rides inside the front seal. I'm trying to understand what conditions could lead to the this type of failure...

I shortened the steering column 2-1/2" without removing the steering box - we did it inside the cab - took about 2 hours. WHAT a difference! It's a great solution and even though my fatness is much less, it's still nice to have the extra room. We did this about 3 years ago - with no issues.

They're not reversible side to side - there is a "left" and "right" squirrel cage. You cannot change rotation on the motors either. They're meant to blow out the side of the vehicle - cooling off the rear compartment by extracting warm air from the ceiling. It works quite well actually. Look at...

Todd - WOW - more great progress - Regardless of others opinions (although understood and respected), I think white is a good call. I take mine to a lot of shows and events, and people who see it appreciate the fact that they can actually SEE all of the interior details (straps, surgeon...

Nice progress - hate to see you go through the trouble of removing the rear compartment wall panels. I only removed the ceiling panels in the cab, and the forward ceiling panel in the rear compartment. Most of the damage I found (like yours) was related to the roof seam between the cab and rear...

m-35tom - THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU - I went to the Vanner website and found not only the equalizers, but flashers and it turns out the local distributor is a vendor I use for starter and generator rebuilds! Who knew? Anyway, he's sending over some info / recommendations, and I'm sure I'll...

Bob - Thanks for the compliment. It's snowing here (south of Chicago). A group of us go to Aberdeen each year, so we'll see you there - and I might be the guy to buy that 24087. As far as your questions, I could not find any data (specs.) or photos of original AF, so regarding frame color, I did...

Go for it Bob, you won't be disappointed. I did mine to honor two local AF Vets (hence the markings) also knowing as you said, you don't see many. I live near Chicago and another MVPA member has one also. We do about 25 - 30 events a year and I never see any AF vehicles. Thanks for the kind...

Just finished (99%) my M37 (Air Force). Got two more I'm starting on now. The M43 next to it is mine also - restored last year. The trailer isn't period correct, but it's actually a fully stocked Chuck Wagon with grill and equipment to feed a small group. We use it for Picnics and other events -...

I was thinking of doing the same thing - how do you plan to keep the third battery charged?
