    MX7794B TVS-2 Nightvison

    These are early Gen 1 scopes and from Vietnam era. They were mounted on the M2 .50 cal and the 106mm recoiless rifle. Due to their age/size/gen, they're more of a novelty $300-400ish range.

    Question about adding a winch to an M923a2 that never had one to begin with?

    Marine trucks have the PTO, pump, tank, and controls. Just no winch.

    I'm still stuck at an impasse on this vote. Thankfully I still have time to think it over.

    Changing D to a C TURBO

    Enough.

    Changing D to a C TURBO

    Well I don't have scientific data. But my deuce would peak at 10psi with the C turbo. I didn't touch the fuel screw at all, just swapped the turbo and I now see 12-13psi peak. That's at WOT at governed speed.

    Changing D to a C TURBO

    A D's map is slightly better than a C's. At the same fueling I saw a 2psi increase. What that translates to performance, I have no idea. I'm guessing 5hp at most. I'm one of the noise haters as well. Although if I ever buy another deuce, it might end up with a C turbo for parade duty.

    5 ton lockout hubs

    I got an email from him a couple of days ago. He was ordering material to do 20 of them.

    M1102 "bouncing" issue

    Ok folks, let's focus on the issues not the grammar here. I have a 1102 myself that bounced all over the place. I had about 30psi in it when I towed it home. Dropped it down to 15psi and it rode much better. I'd reduce pressure first to see what happens. Then move on to flat spots/shocks/exc.

    Bidding on a truck that won't start even with a jump.

    It's a total crapshoot without inspecting. I bought a M931 listed as "does not run". Turns out, it was only listed that was because the person in charge of the yard hadn't had a chance to list the details so he marked it as "does not run". Bid only scrap or parts value and you'll be ok. IF...

    HMMWV questions

    Well they do pull these trailers with the HMMWV platform: http://www.gichner.us/fht.html So that's 7K lbs max weight. But it's a 5th wheel setup.

    Cummins 250 Tach Drive Tip

    Moved to 5 ton section. You're not going to like this, but I'm afraid you're going to need to remove the PT pump and take it to a shop to have it repaired. That shaft/seal requires the pump to be torn down to repair/replace.

    M1008 lift with factory steering

    You'll actually want more lift to get into a crossover. The simplest adjustment would be the kingpin spacer. I'm running a kingpin spacer and drop drag link on mine with a 6-8" lift.

    Did I find some kind of glitch

    That's part of it. The other part is the number of various platforms the board has been on. Sometimes the data moved over gets lumped into null values in the case you've found. And like Alexsha mentioned, the min value for sql is that.

    Steel Soldiers MV of the YEAR - 2014 VOTE HERE!

    Well, honestly it's between Proud and the FEMTT. Proud for what it stands for, but the FEMTT for the inspiration for my build. I just don't know. The armor was the other two spots LOL.

    Patracy's "SEMTT"

    I have another idea if I start seeing oil somehow climb a foot and half up top of the valve covers. I'll make a "catch can" and plumb it before the bulkhead. But honestly I only saw a drip of oil from the tube since the turbo. FWIW, this is the same crankcase vent routing as many cummins have...

    Search Help

    *sigh* The vbulletin search sucks according to many, so I swapped in the google search to the main page. Now I'm getting people complaining about it. I can't win. rofl
