out Well you can check it with a volt meter it will need to be in sunlight of course. Voltage will vary with the amount of light. But the ones I seen has a red LED on the black box to let you know it working and on the right terminals, not sure in the military ones have it or not. Wayne

clamps Wouldn't all mil-spec terminals meet the same requirement? The "look alike clamps" do they claim to be mil-spec? Wayne

use If it does, be sure to take pictures. Wayne

tow I once bought a M105 from Ft Steward that had brand new tires on it and had two flats before I got it home (60 miles). When they put the new tires on they didn't notice that there was a new inner tube (sealed in the bag) already stored in the tire and put a another new tube in on top of...

trailer As Ace said they can be trouble to flip but I've never had a problem towing them with the ring up. Full size pickup 1/2t with 15" wheels. I would worry more about a blowout. Wayne

scrap Not this time, while DRMO has the job of the demil stuff, anything that G/L decide that it is not profitably to sell piecemeal at auction they could turn it down and it would go back to the DRMO and they would dispose of it (scrap). NOW that G/L has the scrap contract also, I expect you...

As always driving conditions AND common sense should prevail but the figures I used came straight from TM 9-2815-237-34 Table 1-1. Tabulated Data (6.2 L) which is for the HMMWV but for the pre 1990 encine. Any changes to the cooling system and/or transmissiion cooler and/or loads will need to...

starter Most any starter shop should be able to sell or repair most any part of the starter you need. That being said I have one used starter (checked good by a local shop) for sale (65.00) and one new starter (180.00). plus the shipping to your zip or can be picked up at 31513 in South Ga...

diesel Operating temperature (normal) 190°-230°F, 88°-110°C for the 6.2 but I wouldn't think running the truck for 15-20 minutes is long enough unless you are going uphill maybe. The thermostat has to open first. Wayne

brakes BTW bending steel tubing is tricky and requires some practice. Kinked lines means reduced flow and you need all the the help you can get in stopping a deuce. Don't cheat and use copper tubing either. Wayne http://www.secondchancegarage.com/public/563.cfm...

a/c No armoured cab? Wayne

I received this email today. If anyone has these parts and want to sale to him. Email me and I'll give you his email. I don't know him and all dealing will be between you and him. Wayne I am looking for winch parts for a 68 M35A2 I need the top piece that goes over the cable and has the tags...

trucks From the G/L site "Vehicles described as "residue" will be provided SF-97s that are annotated "NOT FOR ROAD USE." First I don't think you will drive a residue vehicle away but if you do and the SF-97 state that and you do get stopped or have a accident you will spend time in jail plus...

truck That is a very big subject and very little info. You do understand that after you win (if you do) it may take months before you can pick up your truck?? Are you worried about breakdowns or someone stopping you? Wayne

bids Maybe I misread the post but it sounded as if he offered to sell you one for "or 10.00 for the shovel base and 8.00 for a used offset bracket plus shipping. " why did you bid on the ebay one??? Wayne

problem Never heard of a "load dump" before, so I went "alookin" This is from another forum and I always take things with a grain of salt. BTW I love google. Wayne The OP was about a car radio going out at times. answer was Electrical transients in automotive systems are not uncommon. But...

slings Well it depend on what you are picking up, for myself most times anything I find first is used. I like to use nylon straps and clevis with a screw in pin when I can find it from the last time I used it. Wayne

M818 I've been told that in civilian OTR non fleet trucks, where drivers may own the truck but the trailers belong to someone else, to save wear and tear (and money) on their truck's brakes they will use the trailer brakes for slowing and stopping. Is that something that is taught in CDL...

gene Unless he moved Gene Pantano is in Colorado not Reno Nevada. Wayne

M818 Congat on the new truck. But I would like to point out (for the other folks) that there is NO different in stopping power between DOT-5 (BFS) and DOT-3 in normal vehicles and conditions. As per the Army PS 586 "BFS is more stable at high temperatures and won't absorb water". Back when the...
