Saw this accident waiting to happen heading down I-70 just west of Baltimore doing 60MPH. If I'm adding everything up right, the generator weighs more than the HMMWV, of course has no brakes, and HMMWV probably weighs a bit more than the tow vehicle, and has no brakes. All in all a highway...

That appears to be the case: http://www.jatonkam35s.com/MEP04A/TM9-6115-464-12.pdf

If it's like my MEP002A, then there's an outfeed breaker that is designed to protect the unit. Does your's have a three pole breaker?

Yeah go figure on the gauges. I'm used to it now, some digital gauges would be nice in the future though!

Interesting! The straps do appear to be at a very shallow angle, so even if the load wasn't 11k, the load applied could have been far higher.

On the engine, straight 40 isn't quite right sadly. From what I've been able to find, the best reasonably available oil that meets the requirement is Delo 100. The spec you are after is CF-2, hopefully what's in it is rated that way. otherwise a change might be in order. On the transfer case my...

There's been a number of threads on transmission, but don't use 15W-40, the military did, but only because they convinced Oshkosh to let them. The engine was the same deal. In the transmission use a TES-295 fluid only. On the engine oil, make sure it is straight 40W rated for 2-cycle Detroits.

Mine often sits 3 months over the winter in a protected barn. I throw the batteries on the solar system and she's ready to go the next spring.

No, only the front set steers. It's very similar to a Drott Cruzair, but with a Case diesel engine.

Saw this in an article today: So off to South Korea apparently...

Mine was being used for shade by the calves, and here it is with the newest toy, it was very helpful swapping buckets and tires!

I would love one of these covers, but sadly it wouldn't fit in my barn with it on :-(

Should be a little cheaper here: http://www.memphisequipment.com/M923-M939-5-Ton-6x6-Truck/M923-M939-Brakes/01-0917814-2530.html

I generally do all my own work. Only thing I've ever had a shop do has been tire work, but all my trucks live down near Abingdon, VA, so those shops are six hours away. Everything here in northern VA is silly money when it comes to car work. Generally I have all my standard car work done down...

Best just to replace the whole chamber. They are cheap, common parts from what I recall. No reason to mess with the chamber itself.

Mine is out in Southwest VA, I think we could arrange something. It's a farm vehicle, we could muddy it up. It's a four door, soft top, and lives in a barn. PM me!

A neighbor gave me a hard copy of this today. Think you all might have seen it before, but I found it interesting.

Sounds like you have a very cool job, or a very time consuming hobby! It sounds like all off road sand work. We use ours off road on the farm, rock and dirt around here. I settled on a M998, 6.5L, 3 speed auto. It gets the job done, it is easy to work on, and is what I had in mine when I thought...

You need a HT-740 Allison and the transfer case out of a HEMTT for that application :-)

Man I need to make a run down to you guys! Are you around over the weekend?
