    First shakedown and I have a question about the fan clutch

    I did take a look and saw you used H1 parts. It seems these parts (from H1 part vendors) have dried up. I was looking for a GM parts.

    First shakedown and I have a question about the fan clutch

    What if someone wanted to put a standard fan clutch on like I have linked below. Is there a good choice for a fan that would fit? Or is there somewhere that list the fan sizes like off a Chevy pickup? This would sure make it way nicer to drive...

    For those who have painted their trucks with bedliner.

    I didn't paint the entire truck with bed liner just... well... only the bed. I used a tintable liner and tinted the liner to the correct color green. I am happy with the results... The company not so much. The kit I bought didn't have all of the parts for the pain/spray gun. This is the first...

    Best Way to Power 12V Ham Radio Box

    I would use this if I wanted to power a 12 volt load. Yes there is a dual voltage alternator but if I was going to install a HAM radio (say a nice Icom, Yaesue or Kenwood) I believe it would protect the radio. The only real load on the 12 volt side of the alt is the TCM and they doesn't take a...

    First shakedown and I have a question about the fan clutch

    After some thought the fan is controlled by the engine block temp and not the radiator temp. Like a small block Chevy the hot air blowing though the rad is controlling the fan clutch and not the engine block temp. It would be interesting to see if the 300,000 SN trucks have any issue with ram...

    Misaligned brake switch

    I threaded my z bar with a 10-24 die and used nylocks lock nuts. This took out all play and made it "easier" to adjust. Of coarse you have to stand on your head while doing the splits and patting your head to get to the adjustments.

    First shakedown and I have a question about the fan clutch

    I took my M1152A1 out for the day on it's first shake to see how things are running. The truck drove well and ran really good and strong. One of the things that I noticed was how much the fan was cycling. It was a relatively cool day (upper 60s) and doing highway speeds and the fan cycled on a...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I used Custom Coat. I am happy with how the bed turned out but I am NOT happy with Custom Coat. I ordered the 1 gal kit though Amazon that included the spray gun. First off the sent me the wrong tracking number. I have a PO box and was waiting for the post office to deliver. It never showed...
