Could the holes in the bed be for the pump and the 600 gallon fuel pods?

I am not a fan of mixing Synthetic oil in an engine that has mostly seen plain petroleum based oil. 15w40 is usually sufficient in most climates. Straight 30w or 40w if hot and never sees cold weather. Most HD fleet oil is typically 15w40. My rig Does not see much service and I converted to a...

15w40 dinosaur oil 3000 miles or once a year to remove water/condensation That is what I do. Ymmv

Some flavors of the drash or specialty gen set trailers have standard vin numbers assigned to them but it seems most just have a serial number. other option is super easy is to register through Maine.

personally, I don't like them. There were many used ones surplused through GL and I saw several ones snapped. I had a good one in my hands and seemed too light for my non engineering brain to accept. Company bit the dust so no support either. you don't see medium bars snapped out there.........

Very few have been released to the public or sold as surplus in the USA. I Suspect you would get a premium price here as a display for a collector but you also have tariffs to deal with imposed by you know who.....

How is the wiring handled? Converting to JIC fittings will make it much easier to service and make hoses. that is pretty common fittings in the hd , construction, and farm market.

Look on here as someone adapted the oe set up to accept dual hoses. I remember reading it when I was thinking of doing dual but went another direction. Nothing oe has both winches. Oring ports and metric If I remember correctly will be tricky more than older std flare.

Yes, it is a tradional Saginaw gm pump but pressure boosted up. I would recommend the oe pump from a reputable military parts dealer. Many have tried using a gm pump and very unhappy. Nothing oe gm has the hydraulic fan clutch, hydroboost, and possible hydraulic winch so you will not find the...

Yes, but weird things happen with them. A few millennia ago, a hmmwv with an antenna tuner still mounted on the rear right fender got sold to a member here. Not sure if it works but he sold it it to me with all the cables and mounts knowing I wanted it for a "display" and not to flip. I could...

One of the cables to the top front trays radio mount, I think is the power cable and probably still Hot and connected to power shunt. I would remove. Usually all this stuff is removed at demill before being sold.

The front trays are for radios and the top has a radio mount. Bottom right is a speaker. Middle front is another speaker of a different kind. Mount on rear tunnel looks like another radio mount. Wires on rear fender, one is for an antenna. All this stuff has little use in civy world. Some...

That was 8 years ago. They were scrapping USMC units and were allowed to remove some items for resale. All this stuff is long long ago gone. You can check in Wilmington Delaware not too far from battleship exhibit.

I am dumbfounded at what some vendors are selling these flaps for. Bat doodo crazy....even with the tariffs we allegedly won't have to pay.

They are common civy parts at a truck pro or napa if you are ok with black instead of tan or green. Long one is known as a westcoast mirror. If you need brackets. That is a different critter and are military only.

trying to find the appropriate tm that covers a PP8249/VRC charger and a CY8523A/PRC battery box on a sincgars set up. Also looking for any pictures of this combination mounted on a HMMWV and in use to get proper placement?

Tractor supply has grade 5 that are painted green You buy by the lb. Grade 8 zinc also by the lb. Cheapest fasteners I have found. They also have nylon lock nuts in bulk. Not sure how much the trump tariffs have increased price but worth it if you have one in your area.
