    Guess what it sold for at auction!

    Pay a default fee or have that account's bidding privileges revoked.

    Unknown rubber part found in the street by my truck.

    It does, but the ones I've dealt with pop in and aren't threaded. It has traces of paint. Are the paint traces CARC?

    M35A2 converting to super singles

    More like 45". The 14.00's are 47-48ish. The 16.00's are 52-53". There's a little bit of variation between tread designs and manufacturers.

    M35A2 converting to super singles

    There's not room for 14.00's or 16.00's between the rear axles. 395's are as big as you can go.

    Which battery to use for 12V on M1009

    I've got a guy that wants to jump 12V civvy vehicles from his M1009. He doesn't want to open the hood to do so. So I'm reinventing the wheel and making a 12V slave port, using an Anderson connector so that it will NOT be compatible with the 24V plugs/receptacles. Any reason not to just grab...

    Looker from Tucson

    It was a box stock M1009 in pretty decent condition. I kind of wish I had kept it.

    Looker from Tucson

    My M1009 with the 6.2 passed Tucson's smog tests. I don't know what's worse - that it was required to undergo emissions testing, or that the emissions testing is so flawed that it could pass.

    Price of a full frag 6 armor kit

    HAZ at the welds, and 7018 isn't AR500. Granted, unlikely to be a real problem.

    Price of a full frag 6 armor kit

    If you've got the budget for armor for a hmmwv, you've probably got the budget for a real APC/IFV wheeled and maybe tracked. Far superior... JMHO

    24v battery maintainer set up help

    My M35A2 has a PulseTech HD Pro charging it through the slave port. And my 5ton has one of these charging it through the slave port with very similar results- After the first good rainstorm to wash the salt off the roads, they'll begin venturing out again...

    Options for higher top speed?

    This ^ With 16.00s on my M925 I don't even see 5th gear until cruising on the interstate. Thing is, you pretty much need to treat the transmission as a manual. Otherwise the downshift will be late and the upshifts will be early. A pic, just for general principles -
