    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Thanks Rocky. Just trying to keep busy. BDGR

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I would think a Colorado location would have "Camo" as a choice.... You must be in Boulder... (couldn't resist the jab, no offense intended) BDGR

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Most of the tie downs were attached to the center tray so they came off. I did save them and their bolts of course. I can add some back if I feel the need. I plan to use use it for cargo mostly. If camping just as carry-all. Some folks do use the tray as a starter for a small bed, but not me...

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Not M101, M116A2. I do have a stock M101 but not a radar support version (it’s in the classifieds) Here is a pic of the M116 Bulldogger

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Removed the center tray from my radar support trailer. Stripped most of the tie downs as well. Once the rest of the mounting fittings come off the deck I’ll have a nice semi-flat bed with cubbies on each side. Bulldogger

    Parade - pulling float...unplug fan control????

    My fan cycles from 225-220, on and off respectively. That's the temp on the gauge anyway. Used to not be so good, but I replaced the gauge and block sensor. BDGR

    Members in Northern Virginia?

    I'm up for something, schedule permitting. I'm fairly well booked for October myself due to family stuff, but November is more open. My son and I have done a few such gatherings and like showing up in a non-typical vehicle. Prefer something not too far from Fairfax myself. Bulldogger

    Gas pedal hard to press Normal?

    Well, without a reference it could just be the difference between a utility truck and civvy truck. I do drive with my leg, not rocking my ankle, so to speak. We’ll see what our new member comes back with. Bulldogger

    Gas pedal hard to press Normal?

    I recommend some Googling for Stanadyne DB2 injection pump information. There are several troubleshooting and info pages around. I can't remember the source I referred to, so don't have a specific link. I assume your rig has the DB2, it is common to the 6.2L (especially) and most 6.5L as...

    Gas pedal hard to press Normal?

    Definitely not. If it sat a very long tie the injection pump might be gummed, but this sounds like something else. Have someone push on it while you inspect visually. If you raise the hood and pull yourself up w the steering wheel you can see some of the linkage. Sounds like an obstruction...

    Picked up a $500 m1009 Sh*tbox. No key? Hotwire?

    Reach out to hrbergeron on this site. He had one in rough but not that bad shape (i'd say way better than yours) he was trying to move a couple of months ago. Might still have it. He's in NOVA, so not far away from you. BDGR

    Geared Hub Leaking

    Seals often give up after several years, I’ve replaced several of mine and other friend’s. If you haven’t opened and inspected each of your hubs I strongly recommend it. The TM will walk you through it. Check those bearings. If a seal is bad it might let water in to do its dirty work on the...

    PLEASE make it start

    It sounds to me like you have corrosion or breaks inside the jacket of the battery cables. It’s not that expensive to replace them and eliminate that as a potential cause. I’ve bought a lot of old vehicles and have replaced many a battery cable. Bulldogger

    power steering pump part#? 87' HMMWV with 6.2 non turbo

    I’d replace all your piping as a precaution. Make sure it’s high pressure power steering tubing, not fuel or oil tubing. I further recommend using fuel injection style clamps, instead of hose clamps. I’ve had good results with them and they don’t cut into the outer jacket the way Mr Gasket style...

    Is that an ambulance top Coug? Tall innit? Bulldogger

    New to me M116A2, former TPQ-36(v)7 Radar Trailer

    Many thanks Coug, that's exactly what I needed. I got confused due to the multiple designations in the file name/title. Double thanks for the part #, looks relatively easy to obtain. This has all I need. BDGR

    New to me M116A2, former TPQ-36(v)7 Radar Trailer

    Picked up from CARMAN this weekend. Looking forward to a hopefully quick rehab and putting it to use. Much lighter than my M101 and once repaired will have surge brakes. I’ll be doing some searching here to find the part number for the brake reservoir and master cylinder. Fingers crossed the...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Looks good. I tried to make my own using flat stock to make a sort of open end wrench, but it wouldn't grip tight enough and wouldn't turn the piston. Then I used a C clamp and channel lock pliers. It was NOT pretty when I was done, but I got it done... Yours is much better than mine. BDGR

    Axle Boots measurements

    Nothing to report. As has been mentioned, I really need access to a Deuce and preferably my own mock-up to test fit and refine the design on. It would be an endless series of blind tries, making tweaks and mailing it off for a stranger to fit. Can't imagine finding success. I'm busy now w...
