Let it sit for a day or two, then start it, before deciding everything is fixed. Only a couple hours to fully charge sounds like the batteries are probably good. Very likely at this point that it was a bad connection somewhere creating high resistance, causing the starter contactor/solenoid to...

agree with mogman. No matter what voltage they read just sitting there, you can't know if they are good or not without a proper tester, which is either applying a heavy load and watching voltage drop, or one of the fancy digital testers that does a capacitance/resistance type check. plus...

you have a bad wiring connection. These gauges rely on electrical resistance. If you have a bad connection you will get a different reading. Going over bumps and having everything freak out is some type of bad connection. I had something similar with my oil pressure gauge. Sometimes it...

The overhaul tag just tells you it went through the rebuild process, and when. The MWOs are Modification Work Orders, basically changes or upgrades that were done to it. This thread has a list of the HMMWV MWOs in it if you really want to know little round tag is a qr code, probably had to do...

minimum operating temp for these engines is 180. They are happy to run at 200-220 all day long no problem. Trying to run them under 180 will cause problems over the long term due to incomplete combustion. This isn't a gasser engine, diesels like heat.

That "mount" next to it is for a D-ring type shackle for the wider part, then the lower hole is where the towbar would attach.

A quick look in the parts manuals for the word "brushguard" only came up with 2 pages for the A0-A2 series trucks, and one page in the ECV/REV manual. They have different brackets in the first manual, but here is the page from the second manual. Unfortunately, like a lot of parts for...

Test procedure for the 200 amp generator/regulator https://ceniehoff.com/Documents/Ctrl_Hyperlink/TG17_uid252021123202.pdf

I didn't want to lose my cargo space so that's why I did a fender mount condenser. Also lets me play around with what my configuration is, as I tend to switch things up a couple times a year. This was my thread on that conversion...

Red dot uses 3 sized of eaton aeroquip ez-clip hose and associated clamps. Hose sizes are -6, -8, and -12. Might also be labeled as # 6, # 8, # 12, or NO6, NO 8, NO 12. You can usually find someone selling cut sections on ebay. Also sold in lots of refrigeration/aircon websites, but the -12...

I have also heard people claim they are used as tie down points when being air dropped. I have never seen any evidence of either of those situations, and discussions with people that loaded them to rail cars or set them up for air drop all say they have never used them for that nor ever heard...

So the dual condensers in the ECV/REV trucks is because one is for the front aircon (in dash) and the other is for the rear aircon (mounted between rear seats on top of tunnel) If you are doing a Red Dot evaporator with fender condenser, you only need one of the condensers for it to function...

Apparently more than one set of springs in the MAK because mine has the rear cast spring mount and heavy, single rate springs. It can be either mount in the rear.

no issues. The military upgraded them on trucks one at a time as they failed. No imbalance issues as each shaft is independent of the others.

BlueHummer is a line of expensive nuts/bolts/other stuff for the HMMWV that is designed to lock securely and not loosen up. They used to have their own website, but now it's all sold through ModMafia's website. The early trucks had a problem with their spindle lock ring tabs not holding the...

yeah, if it's an M1123 the uparmored springs have a compression rate that's about 3 times that of the standard M998, so shocks won't really make it softer.

https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/this-is-why-you-check-your-halfshaft-bolts.210313/ And yes, there is no reason why they shouldn't be able to put it in either HL or L for the transfer case, and just driven out.

Very good to know. Do you have a part number or link for the 10" version?
