Thanks for the update Matt. I've been busy w/ school but ti is beginning to slack up. I should have more time in two weeks. I will contact you then for some more details, there's not enough to go on to a second pattern (as GTaube points out). A fitting fixture would be optimal, but it's not...

I heard that the new Joint Tactical Vehicle from OSHKOSH has experienced non-trivial delivery schedule delays (i.e. it's a huge overburdened monster that costs hundreds of thousands apiece and looks like a compact car designed by a committee, meaning it's gigantic). As a result HMMWVs are going...

Unless it saw a major, and odd, modification, it's 24V from two 12V batteries in series. All military and heavy duty trucks are 24V, by and large. Good luck, BDGR

Those side steps are a good idea there. I hadn't thought of that. I have them on my rear bumper for help in getting up to the bed, but I hadn't thought to mount them under the doors. I will have to get 4 more! What onboard air system did you use? Where did you put the tank? DIY the pump...

And to pile on some unsolicited advice (since others beat me to the PCB comment and after-glow profiles): it's worth checking to see if you have a proper grounding harness in it, as bad or intermittent grounds in the electrical system will also cause similar problems now and down the road. It's...

I’ve asked deadpilot if he can send them you Matt. Bulldogger

Fellows, our two brothers interested in checking the fitment and performance of the prototypes are not able to fit them due to unexpected issues. Is there anyone else able to test fit them for a courtesy set (i.e. free)? I'll arrange for them to be sent you. Bulldogger

How on earth could that get that bad? It looks like galvanic corrosion, or acid corrosion, not rust... Definitely good that you took care of it. Terrible sight to behold. BDGR

Well done! Congratulations! BDGR

Yes please. I just bought an older Aviation intercom from SoftComm, but could easily sell it if there is a nicer version for the price you say. BDGR

Sent you a private message.

Note that the Original Poster hasn't been on in a VERY long time. (Click his name and then Profile) Doubt he'll reply. Just FYI. This thread is ancient. I think most of us use the recommended gear oil from the TM. Bulldogger

Looks like a good start to a collection... :-D

Where's a good place/price to get those? I'm assuming they are not made of gold, like HMMWV mirrors. I replaced mine with repurposed NOS school bus mirrors, but they rattle too much and are too small to be useful. BDGR

Russ, I apologize that I missed your note, as the page count for this thread jumped and I kept going. I have a volunteer, and the boots are on the way to him. I don't know about your fitment question, I've never worked on an M925 (or any other 6x6 for that matter). Dimensions for the M35 are...

Thanks all. Dead pilot volunteered by PM and a set of boots is on its way. Davidb56, the fabric is claimed waterproof by the manufacturer. The zipper would be less so. I imagine they will do fine driving through puddles, but I imagine sitting in standing water would likely let some in to...

Bump, still need volunteer BDGR

Thanks to all for the encouragement. Still looking for a beta tester per post #20. BDGR

This current design I can make and sell for $40 a pair, which is competitive with other sources, except we hope mine last longer! BDGR

Well, the zippers came in and I had a few moments free this morning. First is a photo of the diagrams and planning. I used the diameters supplied to come up with conical measurements to join the two circles (axle and hub) with a 6.5” gap between for the 8” #10 brass zipper. I added 1/4”-1/2”...
