So yea back on topic. My hmmwv has radials and 12 bolt rims. What are you guys running, 25 to 30 psi ?

Thanks. I've always wondered about the physics on it

Jdatis, and if the plane increased speed to 120 and the treadmill matched it to 120 in the opposite direction, and then 150 for the plane and 150 for the treadmill, is there a point where friction melts bearings? Or tires explode? If the plane keeps increasing speed and the treadmill matches the...

Right, but would the resistance from the treadmill cause drag?

It's a thing you run on at the gym. Moving belt under your feet. If you run 10 mph and the belts spins at 10 mph, you stay stationary. What about an airplane?

I've been meaning to find out, if an airplane attempted to take off on a treadmill, would it be able to do so? Let's say the airplane needs to reach 100 mph to take off and the treadmill belt is coming at the planes tires at 100mph.

I'm honored you waited since March 2014 to make your first in this thread.

Yea I saw the tire and I've read the dash ten and dash twenty. Just trying to get real world opinions from you guys, who I value greatly. I have this fear of a split rim shooting through my head as I air up.

Just to play it safe, I thought I would ask the experts here what I can safely run in my tires. They are radial according to the tire.

i have the same problem, they use the same kind of twist fastener as the rear seat backs, maybe the stationary part of the fastener on the body is the same part?

Mine runs up to 220 at times. I replaced the thermostat and it still does this.

If you are trying to stick to the original green, and match the doors and soft top to the body, this stuff is going to match better than the krylon green http://www.rapcoparts.com/sppaperca.html

I painted the body and the plastic soft tops. All I did for prep is pressure wash. Then krylon camo rattle can. The doors took a couple coats. The roof seemed to absorb a lot more. There are no problems with flaking when you flex the material. This was just a few weeks ago so I can't give you...

my strategy was buy something 100 miles from me, that i can trailer home myself, and save the cross country transport costs for parts.

I know this doesn't apply to your cracked windshield, but to anyone with a pretty fogged up dull windshield... I used rubbing compound, then polishing compound, on a buffer for about 10 minutes and was able to get the windshield to clear up a lot. I finished up with a ceramic stove top cleaner...

You mentioned it just clicking, what exactly is clicking? The box itself or the starter? Does it click on and off, like it is cycling? or is it a fast clicking? When my truck had old batteries, I would turn it to run, then try to start, and the box would just click several times, very fast...

Temperature sending unit. It tells certain boxes when the engine is already hot so that the glow plugs are energized needlessly.

My unit writes on a bracket on the 1151 hmmwv's when they change hub fluid.

If this is the same KeithJ from another popular board, then I know you know your stuff x87

It's up and under the driver dash, top left corner, above where your left foot is when driving. Just shine a light up there and look for a rectangular box with a big connector going to it. It sits pretty much below the windshield wiper fluid reservoir, but on the inside of the cab.
