I think that is correct, no MEP-005B. I mixed it up with the 805B

I'd also like to thank Jwade for his efforts in addressing the various issues as GP has ramped up. I called GP customer service a couple of times this past week. The wait time wasn't bad and the customer service reps I spoke with were pleasant and seemed to know their stuff. Quite an...

I think the sequence started with the MEP-005, then newer ones became the MEP-805A followed by the MEP-805B. I'm not certain if the wiring is identical between the A & B models and you would want to be certain before you changed things around. The 400hz models are MEP-815A & B 30kW TQG...

sewerzuk here on SS has quite a few YouTube videos on various MEP units & could probably answer this question.

Not HMMVW, but I had a small electric drain I chased for a month on a Ford F350 with the 6.0 diesel. One morning it had been sitting overnight and i happened to touch the alternator as I was tracing wires. The alternator was quite warm to the touch- problem turned out to be a bad diode in the...

Until about May when the temperature can start hitting 100+. Back in the '70's I was working 12 hours shifts on a rig out in the desert near Safford, Arizona. My main transportation was a Triumph Bonneville. We had a hot spell where it was over 110 every day for a month.(with a few days over...

Looks great! Did you adapt a cab for the MK48 or did you use a HEMTT cab? I have a new MK48 hatch I want to install, but am missing the rails, maybe I can get some measurements

Those "plugs" sure look like duck bill check valves which would let any water drain out, but stop water or air from coming back up into the cab. You often see bigger rubber valves like this on construction or military equipment air cleaners near the air intake to let accumulated dust out. If...

Diesel fuel tanks occasionally. NEVER on a gasoline tank, air bubbling through gasoline then into a shop vac with sparks for ignition makes for a possible explosion.

The 100+ drill rigs we used had hydraulic tanks from 20 gallons up to 200 gallons. If the rig didn't come with valve(s) on suction line(s), it was one of the first things we installed, ball valves preferred because they seemed to leak less. The valve makes working on the pumps so much easier...

Thanks for clearing that up! I had just posted a quick reply to you without reading the recent posts & I misinterpreted your reply in light of some of the previous posts. A while ago I had done a little homework digging through the TM's for AC in the LMTV cab with same result of finding just...

I agree it would be great if he posts the specific information. I was only trying to be helpful in making sure you had the link to the TM's here on SS which I believe is the complete set. I appear to have stepped into some p!$$ing match here that I wasn't aware of, so over & out.

The LMTV manuals are on the SS site @ http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?118919-M1078-TM-s I assume you were referring to the 24P TM, I don't think there is a 34P.

I have a passport so it isn't a personal issue, but I am trying to figure out how it will impact getting GL stuff shipped off bases either by LTL carriers or truckers lined up through a broker. I'll keep working it and post any answers I find. It does not look like the CDL provides any extra...

Does anyone know if a CDL from these states will still work to get on bases? Or in Washington, will the "enhanced" driver's license work? When they were talking about enforcing REAL ID for airplane travel as well, the news articles said that if you had the enhanced Washington driver's...

I don't know why I didn't think of it sooner. I used one of the TM's numbers in the search section and found several of the TM's - http://www.steelsoldiers.com/forumdisplay.php?119-Present-Conflict-Vehicles-TMs

Glad it helped. I know the TM's are on here somewhere. I already had the M1070 TM's from liberatedmanuals and elsewhere, but I downloaded another batch from SS into a separate folder to make sure I wasn't missing one or a later edition of one I had. I'm guessing they were in one of the posts...

The electrical trouble shooting starts on page 2-360 of TM 9-2320-360-20-1 Unit Maintenance dated May 2007. The overcharging alternators troubleshooting starts on page 2-466. The complete TM's are on this site, but I didn't see them in the TM section so I uploaded the electric troubleshooting...

I think the M944A1 is issued with the 14.00 tires which are 49" tall. The 15.5 are 46" tall, so the engine rpm to go the same speed would increase by 6.5%. Or if your top speed was 55 mph at engine's red line rpm with the 14.00's, your new top speed would be 51.7 mph with the 15.5 tires...

Nice!
