Even with the top opening, and what I assume is the shed area possibly being open at one end, additional air movement isn't a bad idea to have, even something as simple as a box fan to move new air into the enclosed area. I've seen the end results of multiple generators being run with...

His nickname.

Looks like the mounting plate for the earlier trucks, so at minimum would need different mount to the truck.

EMT seems a little light to me, especially if you're going to put couplers in the middle of a longer span that will have rain and snow potentially collecting on top. If the shape is anything like the bows for the troop carrier and 1102 trailers, then the top section has a bend in it as well, and...

I would say for a family where you are the only fully capable adult for setup, then the 305 is a bit large (18x25'). One of my buddies has a 303 for his family and it's usually a 3-4 person setup to make it easy, but 2 people can do it if necessary, and I wouldn't really want to do it by...

Pre 196900 and post 196900 serial number setups. There is also a difference in belt routing and an additional idler pulley for the post 196900 serial number setups with the remote reservoir, along with a different support bracket for the rear of the alternator.

I believe these are the threads with the relevant information https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/how-to-bypass-pcb-i-am-aware-some-hmmwv-owners-have-done-it-tobash.182560/...

The one you linked shows a -BC ending and says for non-turbo trucks.

Only difference between those part numbers is the shift points. According to the below list found on a different site, the -BB is for a non-turbo truck. 2100-AA: turbo first generation 2100-AB: turbo second generation 2100-AC: turbo latest generation 2100-BA: N/A first generation 2100-BB...

Unless there is something very different about your truck, the farm jack should have no issues lifting one wheel off the ground. If for some reason that isn't enough height for you, you can also position the jack underneath the front bumper next to the shackle, or there are other ways to get...

Yes. It will shift off to the side even if it is in park and brakes locked. The farm jack just doesn't have any sideways stability, so it shifts sideways, not forward or backwards. You can use the high lift in conjunction with a bottle jack, especially if the tire is flat and too low, to lift...

Safe? That's a relative term. Farm jacks are also known as "Suicide Jacks" for a reason. Short answer, NO! I've used a farm jack on a shackle ring at those locations, and as long as you only lift a single wheel off the ground, and have the other end blocked so it can't shift then yes, you...

Use a mechanical gauge to verify, but those numbers sound decent enough. I wouldn't worry. These use mechanical oil pump, so either it's working and you have pressure, or you don't. If you didn't the engine would have let you know by now. Not much middle ground. Every gauge and sender will...

If it is round at the differential end, then it's a 7 or 10k. can be used interchangeably. If it has 3 flat sides, then it's a 12k. then for the 12k shafts on the left is how the solid brake rotor and ECV/REV mount to, so smaller center round portion on the face. Right is for early vented...

i am planning on taking the old one to a starter rebuild shop next chance I get and see if there is something better available before trying to modify one on my own. I didn't do the dielectric grease on anything this time, and last time I put it together I did try using sealant on the motor but...
