Took my CUCV and LMTV to the Coastal Virginia Auto Show in the Virginia Beach Convention Center. They wanted military vehicles there and had us put in the lobby. Several thousand people attend this show. While I was there for a little while today a guy was talking to me about it and called my...
I followed your method and I think it was successful. I'm currently running/testing it to see if it-22 C, it's currently at -5.5 C after 1.5 hours in freeze mode. I've read elsewhere that it can take 4-8 hours to get to temp. Thanks for posting this method Suprman, it's a lot easier than having...
Installed the MIP floor mat from LMC Truck. Disappointed with the process, I think that for the money it should more form fitted than it is. You'd be better off getting something similar from your local home improvements store and cut it out yourself than buying this.
Is your compressor really "on" or does the screen just say "COMP ON"? Mine says "COMP ON" all the time even though I've only heard it kick on once. I'll try your method, easier than removing the whole unit from the box to tap the other side.
I guess suprman got lucky, I vacuumed it down and added freon but the compressor wont kick on. It came on for about 10 seconds then stopped. Next I'll put another piercing valve on the other side and vacuum again.
I just picked one of these coolers up from the recent auction of these on govplanet. Wasn't in the picture but the refrigerant was drained and labeled on the side with a little sticker. Now I get to refill it. I have experience so I'm not super stressed about it. I contacted the manufacturer...
Made progress repainting mine last weekend. Still have to add the camo stripes and lizard skin on the inside this weekend. It's even darker now that it has dried. Originally when the paint went on it looked like Kermit the frog.
Got the tubular brush guard on tonight. Took off the winch plate, drilled, tapped, and centered the brackets to the plate. I found out that the winch hole is not center on the plate at all. I only paid $100 for everything and I still have extra brackets it came with.
Installed some IBIS TEK bulletproof windows. Got the glass, pins, and mounting brackets from a friend of mine. Only modification required is smooshing the defroster down with a sledgehammer and installing the brackets. Fits in any regular windshield frame. These have electric defrosters so I...
On larger gensets, ground and neutral are bonded. The wiring pictured is correct. Green always goes to L0. I chose 30 amp breakers in my circuit panel because the individual breakers on this unit are 30 amp. I have 4 of these units.
Put a face lift on the "Rod Hall" GMV last night. About time considering I have had these parts in my garage for months. Still have to put on the new tubular brush guard and the missing hood pieces. Some before and after pictures
