    Softer Springs

    Service TM gives the correct procedure for spring replacement. Fairly easy at least with the stock height springs in my experience. I’ve replaced (4) coil springs to date on the HMMWV platform.

    LOL. Been there done that. Currently on my 3rd HMMWV and do all the work myself. First one I drove from CO to WA in early spring. Multiple snowstorms, several days and lots of maintenance later arrived home 🏡 with a good story to tell.

    Heat Pump Soft Start

    Related to running an 802a for backup coverage on the house. Installed a soft start on the heat pump today. I’m impressed on the reduction of inrush startup current. 82A to 30A so far.
