General update. Manage to track down some electrical gremlins and get them sorted out today. She now starts and runs like a champ but there's still more electrical work investigate due to the custom work done during the transformation from M925 to Buffalo. I took the new steam washer to her and...

I put 2 pairs on my M10A loader and they indeed are! They look good on your M925A2 ROPS truck there too.

I managed to break some time off to tend to the Buffalo today. My assistant and I replaced the coolant hoses that ran the length of the frame to the rear AC/heater unit then topped off the system. While doing that I did some electrical repairs and made some progress. We have 24v and 12v lighting...

Do you have photos of this kit being installed? This is what I have.

That is awesome. Did any have LED route clearance lights? I have a kit for an MRAP but the NSN doesn't cross to anything.

Update: I've had some time in between projects to pull the "Buffalo" out and diagnose issues. She had no power to anything so I've been jumping the starter relay directly. Mechanically it's happy and sounds like a good running M939A2. I've managed to get 12v power to the cab internals and all...

IED route clearance was the goal for this Buffalo MRAP. From sources that messed with MRAPS they rolled off the production line due to high demand of the trucks overseas and they couldn't spare any for training so they did the next best thing. I actually found some photos of her sister vehicle...

A quick update since I've had too many irons in the fire. My tire guy came and installed some good 14.00 XZL. The truck was moved and blew the heater coolant hose which was routed along the passenger inside frame to the rear A/C system. It all will be replaced anyway and they just plumbed it...

Wes got the truck running with fresh batteries and plumbed it to a 5 gallon jerry can to load it up yesterday. He jumped it at the starter to prevent any electrical issues as the vehicle has been sitting for 5 years outside. I believe it was the right call as there are 12v, 24v, and 120v systems...

For those who haven't heard I've come into possession of a Buffalo MRAP trainer built on an M925A2 chassis. I want this thread to document the unique nature of this machine and updates as I work on it (even if slowly). I felt this should go under the "Heavy Armor" category due to the extensive...
