Exactly....

Sadly not... That's the problem I have when selling HMMWV engines to people who want them for their suburbans and pickups: Due to the different shape at the bottom, the mil pan sure does interfere with the crossmember...(!)

Those will stick out a lot, on the front axle. Ideally you want something between 8.5 - 9.0 inches of BSP, measured with the adapter plate already bolted on.

That's your problem, right there! Solution: Brake cleaner & chalk ..... Degrease and dry all surfaces thoroughly, then rub the cone all around with your piece of chalk. Insert the joint, screw the nut on a few threads and eventually use a small prybar (in between nut and knuckle) to force the...

:ditto:

Ammonia solution will do.... Any household cleaner (with 5-10% NH₃ by weight), or buy 30% commercial and eventually dilute. Where it matters, any residue (stains of ammonium sulfate) can easily be removed with a damp towel or by rinsing off with water.

Sir, your question has been answered, already...(!) Either turn the crank (CW) at the front bolt - which holds the pulley and damper in place (takes a 24mm socket & breaker bar), or at the flexplate ring gear, in any direction. That can be done with a large screwdriver as lever, or best with...

The latter...... M989A1 (TRAILER, AMMUNITION, HEAVY EXPANDED MOBILITY, 11 TON,, NSN 2330-01-275-7474 Yes. M989 and M989A1 are two different beasts. Equipment data/dimensions for each can be found in TM 9-2330-368-14&P and TM 9-2330-383-14&P, respectively.

Moved them all to the MTVR section.

No, for long trips or everyday usage I would not want more than 1/2" difference. But for temporary use I see no problem at all - unless you had detroit lockers installed.

I'd shop for a 12.00R20 tire - which can be mounted on a 7.5 inch rim, no problem. Their overall diameter is somewhere between 44.5" and 45" and as a spare that would work good enough. A2 rims are TT, so just make sure you get the right tube and flap, too.

Part number 3912487, NSN 5340012712475 Here is one (rather expensive !) source: https://s1partscenter.com/brands/cummins/solenoid/solenoid-bracket/3912487 I think you should be able to find that same part for a fraction of that cost. Post a parts-wanted ad in our Classifieds.

It's a std SAE #2 flywheel housing, and there is plenty of room, so you have lots of options... Besides adapting a pedal (plus pump and slave cylinder for hyd operation) you will need a manual FW and a 14" clutch disc & PP. One possible solution: the Spicer 6453 with a 0.79:1 5th OD from a...

If dual rears, could there be a rock, stuck in between tires?

To dislodge the cone inserts you need to hit the arm on both sides - not the top side of the arm, not the cones, not the studs! Try that before anything else!
