They are on ebay all the time. I got mine from an auction, new. Search for: "U.S Army Equipment Record Folder" There appear to be a bunch of current auctions for it.

It started on mine of dripping fluid, I fixed all the drips.. (New hoses, replaced the big metal one that was always 'wet' under the vehicle as well.. Then as I drove it, got more drips on the top where the new hoses sealed to the front of the engine.. Then got that resolved.. and then I was...

I had similar problems in my 6.5L GEP, when I chased all the leaks, the rad cap started poping, turned out I had a head gasket leak, exhaust was getting into the coolant raising the pressure. so as you chase leaks, if you can’t stop them, check for exhaust in the coolant. (When it first...

On my 12-bolt rims, the inner wheel part was fine, but one of the outer parts was in bad shape. I was able to buy just the outer part (parts manual had the part number, and either Kascar or MacMotors had it in stock.). You might get lucky and be able to do the same with the 24-bolt and only buy...

The ones on my troop seats are fiberglass. Definitely NOT wood. They are moulded in a way that there are channels for the fasteners to hold. But as someone said, the troop seats are one of those things, either you want or you don't. And it seems more people don't want them, so you may be...

See your left side of the dash, there is a meter that detects how dirty the air filter is. If you broke the hose it could whistle, as it'll let air in through the hose.

-) Batteries, I got 6TLs from O'Reilly. Reasonably prices and I was able to get them quickly. -) Keyed Ignition - Don't, seriously.. Don't.. it will last 6 months and fail, then you'll replace it and it'll last 6 months and fail. Instead look at something like the "Digital Guard Dawg Humvee...

Not in the south, but Progressive didn't require mine to be garaged.

I used magnesium polish on mine (the stuff made for wheels). Then after that got all the 'gunk' and deep scratches out, used the Meguiars Plastic cleaner and polish. Still some haze on the edge by the metal, but the middle the gauges are now clear.

Different manufacturers may have different shape gaskets, but they should all be compatible. Other then shape there is thickness of course. For the stock thickness gaskets, both of your pictures are probably fine, based on the block and heads only having one pattern.

Ya. needs a state assigned VIN to avoid duplicate "serial numbers" between different manufacturers.

Yup, and the only difference in the standard heads are the angle of the intake runner bolts. (Cause I bought the wrong heads the first time and had to return them..)

Looks the same as my engine and it definitely works with the military gasket I mentioned above

Found it, the part I put on my engine, search MacMotors for P/N 5714842. It's listed as 6.5L TD, but it's the same head gasket for the 6.5L NA.

I just looked up the part number in the manual and ordered it from Mac. Unfortunately my rig and everything is still at the repair shop, so I don't have an easy way to check. The head gasket came as part of a full kit though. (I have no desire to boost my engine, with the three speed...

As far as I know, there is only one standard thickness for the head gasket on these things. The military doesn't deck the heads or the block, if they are out of tolerance they get replaced. I'm not sure what the standard thickness is, but gaskets I used were the standard military ones from...

Problem with LiFePO4 batteries I've seen (for automotive use) is that they can't handle cold temps. They won't charge once them temp drops below freezing. Living in Minnesota, half the year can be below freezing so it's no good for me. (They will discharge at colder temps, just not charge.)

From a safety perspective, I'd recommend ordering a couple sets of the wheel o-rings and ship them in. It's a small price to pay to ensure you have the wheels assembled properly, and they won't lose air (and are thus safe to drive on the road.) As for the inserts, I removed the run-flats from...

I have progressive. Purchased it via my American Family agent (they would have underwritten it, but the AmFam system won't allow a non-standard VIN, Progressive would.). We had an accident, Progressive have seen pictures of the vehicle -- so no surprises it all "just worked". Edited (read it...

The few that I've needed (on the order of 5-10 at a time) I bought from MacMotors. Just need the part number or NSN and they'll pop up.
