The plastic layer on the inside is laminated on, so you can't really do anything to change a left side into a right side without eliminating what actually makes it into a ballistic windshield.

I remember reading in the VW forums about the e-brake cable freezing and locking the brakes on, and a few people recommended using antifreeze in the cable as a lubricant. Main purpose of that since it is water soluble, if any water does seep in, it mixes with the anti-freeze to prevent this...

Heat and hammering. I think I also used a floor jack and 2x4 to add some upward force, but it's not exactly stable and requires like 3 sets of hands to keep everything in control.

EDIT: Duplicate post, internet here is being very slow today.

Yes, M1123 is an A2 variant. Closest A2 variant is the M1097A2, (BVY) which is the same truck with a rear bumper on it (both are the heavy variant A2 truck) Taking a look at HummerPartsGuy's website, there's only one part number of radius rod assembly available, and no stock on it. The sleeve...

these were set up to have weight in them, and as far as I know there isn't any way to adjust the braking. Depending on model, 1200 lbs is a good start. Mine likes around 2500 lbs a little better (m1123 with heavy suspension)

I have heard the concept mentioned before, but not sure if anyone has actually done it. You could do the same thing, and probably easier/cheaper by adding an Anderson plug somewhere in the system to do the same thing.

on my BEOD the cables weren't cut, and they just had standard eyelets on the end that gave me the impression that they were supposed to be hardwired to the batteries. I only chopped them off and installed this plug in stead because I set my truck up as mission dictates, whether I'm using it to...

4 850 CCA batteries wired in series parallel will be 1700, compared to the 1100 of the Hawkers, but the main issue is the space considerations. 2 6TAGM batteries will fit with no modifications, 4 group 65 will require some type of modification to the battery box, wiring, or other install...

For towing you don't. The wheels will follow the path of least resistance, which is just following the tow vehicle. That is why a good quality tow bar hooked up properly is important, as it doesn't just pull the vehicle forward, it also forces it sideways when turning.

Remember the manuals are written for the 18 year old city boy that has no idea what he is doing, and to make someone responsible in case something breaks. You might have zero issues with towing it in neutral t-case and transmission for a million miles, or you might have a catastrophic failure...

Even only drawing a minimal amount of current, it still creates a voltage imbalance. Unless there is some mechanism installed to equalize the batteries, any imbalance will eventually cause a premature failure of the battery bank. I know of no battery manufacturer that will tell you that their...

We also have them in the TM section here on this site as well https://steelsoldiers.com/threads/tms-for-the-m998-series-hmmwv.78861/ The M1097R1 are an oddball case that aren't specifically listed in the manuals. When looking through the manuals you will want to use the M1097A1 listed parts...

The DRASH trailer frames also work pretty good with the MEP-802. I have the smallest DRASH frame, from a 35kw GET trailer that I put my 802 on and a 3 ton ECU. ECU is around 400-500 lbs, generator is on some 6" C-channel as a riser to clear the fenders. Still has the 55 gallon fuel tank in it...

I don't know about what the differences between the Mark 1 and Mark 2, but there is a localish to me group with a Mark 2 version that might have that type of information. I've visited them before, but that was more through a friend of a friend and not directly. I couldn't find direct contact...

I missed where someone mentioned inverter, or someone has edited their post since then. Closest I saw was talking about it being internally rectified.

Regulator takes AC input and uses it for both rectifying to the 14V tap output, and likely for monitoring output to regulate both the 14V and 28V output of the alternator. Remember, this is 30-40 year old technology that they are still using, so it tends to be a bit more complicated than...

Lack of power can also be contributed to a plugged catalytic converter, which is common as these things spend a lot of time idling. Disconnect the exhaust before the cat and see if that improves anything.

Item in circle in 4th picture is your power steering reservoir. It should be filled with the same automatic transmission fluid as you use in your transmission, usually either DEX III or DEX VI, though DEX III is commonly recommended for applications other than transmissions (can usually be...
