    Putting a HMMWV 400 AMP alternator on a Cummins NHC250. Has anyone done it? Need info

    Bracketry is a small part of the problem, the coolant filter canister cap has a rear exit that drops behind the Alternator. It makes it difficult to put in a longer Alternator, not impossible. The cap needs to be spaced out so it is further out to allow the longer unit to fit. A couple of...

    Putting a HMMWV 400 AMP alternator on a Cummins NHC250. Has anyone done it? Need info

    Well I checked out both trucks and have arrived at a solution, it is gonna take a bit of fabrication. The first two pictures are of the 900 series engine and the last three are of my 800 engine. Basically it is gonna take making an extension for the coolant filter reservoir between the end cap...

    Putting a HMMWV 400 AMP alternator on a Cummins NHC250. Has anyone done it? Need info

    They were used in HMMWV's that were Radio Vehicles, I have a couple of these alternators, but they are damaged, buying a new one is a much better idea at this point. I have a 3500 watt Xantrex Inverter in my 813 for camping and I run a Vanner Equalizer to balance my 24 volt batteries and pull a...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    You are correct in the 7 speed Allison which was an upgrade transmission. Apparently the Caterpillar CD7155 16 speed transmission was one of the originals transmissions. This is the one I was looking at some time back http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=5659836 don't worry it...

    New Cummins HMMWV project in the works!

    I agree, I used to work for Gendex, G.E. Xray. I spoke to quite a few Doc's it seemed many of them lacked the ability to manage their lives and relied heavily on their office manager to keep things going. I also worked as a "civilian contractor" for the military and found those Doc's a bit more...
