    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Well, my alternator decided to get smoking hot :rolleyes: so I’ve decided to go with Those Military Guys 160 amp conversion kit. And while I’m waiting for that to arrive I figured I should check the glow plugs as it is now non starting. Resistance is high and the plugs are all stuck as well...

    Alternator is rebuilt and putting out 28v, I like seeing that Volt meter running in the green! Took it out for a quick spin, and at -2F the heater is definitely struggling! 🥶

    Potentiometer stripped (no effect) on 60 Amp Alternator

    A little more help please. After installing the new regulator, it ran well for a minute (29v adjusted to 28v, then dropped out) I found the brushes to be shot. Ordered new brushes and installed them. Now it’s running a solid 24.92v but again no effect from the pot. Could the regulator have shorted?

    I checked the previous posts regarding this with no help. I have an apple X phone and a MacBook, and neither shows any option for adding pictures under the initial or advanced screen? Is this an option that is granted by the admin? Thanks

    Replaced the half axles, changed fluids, pulled the 8 bolts and bias ply’s refinished and installed 24 bolt rims w/Radial M/T’s. Removed the rear shims and aligned the toe out (still taking it to an alignment shop as it’s squirrelly on the ice). Picked up a new voltage regulator, and found the...

    Potentiometer stripped (no effect) on 60 Amp Alternator

    Ok, I've been going through my 998 and was checking the charging system since the batteries don't seem to be getting a charge. I performed the check on voltage output and with the engine running a bit higher rpm than idle, its showing 24.3 volts. I tried adjusting the output via the Phillips...

    Bought some 98% take-offs, and noticed the 8 bolt wheels.

    From what I’ve read, the 12 & 24 bolt wheels are good with the Radials. It’s the 8 bolts that are supposed to run lower pressure.
