    Tracking of Military Vehicles

    Google the unit number that is painted on the vehicle, you'll at least find the unit that had it. Then read up on the unit's history. It is all out there.

    Per the illustration , it looks like the bolt threads into a "rivnut", not a captive nut on the inside. Rivnuts are common in aluminum structures. Try to grab the collar of the rivnut, not much material there though. May have to apply a little American ingenuity. May have to pull it out and...

    Jackstands?

    Wait for a HF sale and stock up on a couple /three sets. They are stout and work well. Cribbing is used for long down time jobs.

    Hard Shift from 2 to 1st gear.

    Look at the condition and set up of the transmission modulator cable/linkage. It's the pull cable that attaches to the throttle lever at the IP and left side of the trans. There are several threads discussing the correct rigging and a you tube video that address the issue. A new cable may also...

    DeSpline Questions

    I have a pair that I swap out with my M925 and m936 when I'm head out on the high way. There is a fuel saving, however I haven't calculated down to the mpg. The big difference is no rotating mass up front in the axle. Feels a lot smoother in the steering wheel and no wear to the drive line...
