    Manual Override of Glow Plug Controller

    You can override them with a 9V battery and a pushbutton switch but you need to know what you're doing. As a temporary measure I drove the gates of the MOSFETs in the box with a 9V battery to power the plugs to get the truck started. You can't use the vehicle power because the MOSFETs are on...

    Power steering whine/cavitation

    Check the level and bleed it and inspect everything in the truck that runs off of hydraulics for leaks. http://hummer-hmmwv.tpub.com/TM-9-2320-387-24-1/css/TM-9-2320-387-24-1_1112.htm Mine puked most of the fluid out when the fan clutch hose came off. It's no fun driving one of these trucks...

    Looking for a MX-10862 single SINCGARS tray, possibly AM-7239 dual tray

    WTB MX-10862 single SINCGARS mount. Here's what one looks like: http://www.prc68.com/I/RT1439.shtml#MX-10862 I would have some interest in purchasing the AM-7239 dual mount if I can't locate a single radio power supply. Thanks.

    Total Radio Newb. - Have questions

    You only need a technician class to legally use the 6M band which the VRC-12 series will cover. It's pretty easy to get. The biggest problem with using the RT-524, PRC-77, etc. is the 50kHz tuning steps. Another problem is the 150Hz tone coded squelch but that can be turned off. The RT-524...

    new M998 owner, ignition trouble, wait light never comes on, engine won't start

    It's probably the box if your glow plugs show continuity. You want to also check to make sure that both connectors are screwed in tightly. Usually, at least with the KDS boxes, you'll get a brief flash from the WAIT light when switching to the RUN position. The reason this happens is that the...

    Findlay 2013 Armed Forces Day Event

    I am just south of route 30 in Hayesville and I'm leaving Friday morning in my 151. I'm meeting another guy along the route who also has a 151 along the way so if you are interested in convoying part of the way there just reply to this thread and we'll try and work something out. I'll be...

    help 6x6 jeep?

    It's an M151A2, an early Ford A2 in fact since it lacks the notches on the front fenders. It's not worth anything as a 6x6 as far as I'm concerned but could be cut back down if the price is right.

    Ohio Summer Rally & Military Vehicle Show Aug. 19 & 20

    Well I see my neighbor made it there. I figured that 114 was there already since I noticed the trailer was missing when I drove by last night.

    2011 Findlay Show...After Action Report!

    It was definitely a good time and met a lot of good folks. I had the 151 parked next to my buddy's gama goat and in front of the mule. I almost bought that nice m416 down at the corner but it was probably a good thing I didn't. :roll:
