Oh my goodness. So much information and not all correct. The coils with the resistors were manufactured that way for 24V distributors before a true 24V coil was developed. Most of them are long gone that why your rarely see them these days.
The vent lines are to remove ionized air from the...
For a point of reference...My 96 H1 with 7.4L gas gets a dependable 6 city and 8 highway.
But I didn't buy it for milage. I'll get all my money back anyway :D
I'm pretty happy with the prices H1s are bringing.
Do you know if the NSN are marked on the pieces themselves? I have access to armored Marine HMWVVS of different designs. I could check on them for NSNs if you think they are marked, and those marks haven't been painted over... :-(
I talked to the curator at the local military museum: All that armor is on the Military Munitions List and is accountable. He indicated that is why it is strictly de-milled and generally sold as scrap. "having it could be an issue". Who knows?
I think that copying it in aluminum might be a...
Well I have located one of the armored boxes, can not for the life of me think of their name.
Negotiations have been started, but I think it will be a long row to hoe...
Poking around for one of the cab armor that drops over the existing cab.
That truck being an A0, look right inside the drivers door for a MWO tag numbered MWO 9-2320-272-35-1, or for a indicator light on the far left of the instrument panel that is labelled "ABS". If those are not there (but it is likely they are), know that the truck has safety issues. That isn't my...
I haven't measure the rail width on a deuce bed, but I wouldn't be surprised if they are the same width as five ton rails. That being said one needs to shorten the bed down to ten foot to put it on a tractor if you want to keep the spare storage area for super single behind the cab. It could be...
Contact JD. I recall seeing a 1 gallon offering of their proprietary color paint somewhere in the online catalog.
BTW the spray stuff is a dead ringer for the factory color, applied correctly over a properly prepared surface the finish is indistinguishable from the original paint.
Inherently quieter. I have had an H1 with the 6.5L and it was quieter by far, due to more insulation and the engine being buried under more accessories and emissions gear (I would guess). I still have an H1 with a transplanted 502 gas motor and transmission in it, and that is QUIET! Easy to...
California is no longer registering MVs off of form 97s. I know of two guys that have had their plates recalled very recently, like this year. OHV rating only. Im trying to find the official notification of this.
