Hello all. I purchased a right side NOS Sponson for sale at a good price. My question is what are the two upper holes for? My Truck does not have them. I'm not talking about the antenna triangle cover holes, but above them. Its different than my Tow Truck and if it does not fit I plan on moving...
Yes, it blew loud and strong for 35 seconds on the bench. I have a video of it, but I was recovering from the Wuhflu and was in my Robe. Maybe I'll still try and post it. Scared the Shit out of my Wife when it went off. LOL. I'm using 3/8" airline to the Horns and 1/4" airlines to my gauge.
Pretty much the same setup except for where I placed the Tank and compressor. Also, my Horns have a 24 Solenoid. One other difference is I plan on tying the eclectic into my regular wimpy horn for actuation. Thanks for sharing!
I'm using Military Truck Air horns. My Tank and Compressor are in place. Not much room, but just enough. Decided to do some insulation as well. Looks pretty clean. I'll send a picture of my Horns next.
Morning Gents. I mounted my Air compressor and tank under the Passenger side rear seat. That came out great. I will install a pressure gauge in the command center as well with a on / off switch for the compressor. It would be much easier to mount the horns themselves in the engine compartment...
Hello All, I'm tired of the wimpy horn on my M1045A2 and have purchased Military truck Air horns that I will mount under my LVVOS front driver's side bracket. My question is, I want to route the wire and 3/8" air hose through my windshield frame to keep it clean looking. Getting those in from...
While were on this subject I have a question. How do you install Buckle on the existing strap? Only way I can see is to leave the strap attached to the Cover, then remove the stitching at the bottom which doubles the Strap thickness, slide the new Buckle on then re-stich it. There has got to be...
No I have not, but I will revisit your question after I'm done installing the Thermal/sound deadening insulation. IMO the soft-top was louder. The slapping noise at speed drove me crazy. It was a new top and was tight as shit, but that made no difference.
I have had both. The soft top was much louder when driven. I like my hardtop, but its also much hotter in the Truck in the summer. I do miss my soft doors. Taking them off and storing them in the back for that door-less ride home was the "Cats Nuts". Each has there advantages and disadvantages...
My guess is they changed the Odometer when they replaced the Motor to kind of keep track of it. My 2003 M1045A2 had 3200 miles on it and it looked like a new Engine and Tranny was installed, but when I looked under the Hood it was cracked and repaired in multiple spots. I wish it had the GEP...
I installed the cooling kit on both my 6.2 & 6.5 NA along with the upgraded Temp Gauge with the Gray Boot Sensor. I feel it made a huge difference in the Summer, but did not think about there is also Winter. In the Winter both Trucks barley got into the Green on the Temp Gauge. Thank the Lord...
I'm with Coug. I have these Doors on my M1045A2. They are the Supplemental Armor Skins that are Riveted on Top of the X-Doors. Defiantly not Bullet proof.
Just Green dome lights off of Amazon. I think they said off road. They are rugged and I like the mounts they give ya. I drilled and taped the Pillars (which was not easy) installed two. I did not realize they were momentary switches and they have no memory, so wiring them to a switch on the...
I pulled my insulation, vacuumed, then scrubbed everything with soapy water. Then I rinsed it out with a hose, blew in dry with compressed air and put a fan on it for a day. Came out great! I could see the water line on the Tunnel from deep fording and found the original insulation moldy...
