    K-43 phone maint./poll setter

    Ancient thread bump, to see if OP might resurface. Says he hasnt been around since 2015. Just ran into a k43 for sale with no trace of the body, just cab and chassis. It has rekindled my interest.

    Lmtv oil pan r&r

    Man im glad i wrote that out cause i completely forgot how id done the driver’s side. You just have to loosen the pass and driver top bolts enough to slide the bracket down, with the bottom bolt completely removed. Top hole is slotted straight upward. i had to use the 7/8 wrench with the...

    Power Distribution Panel M1083A1 10/98

    Just stumbled upon this thread. Lugnuts, did you get anywhere with your MTV? Also, this is the first place I've read about certain boards being bad. I've only got about 600 miles on my 1078a1 but I have a seldom appearing turn signal INOP issue that doesn't last very long and may be cold...

    Lmtv oil pan r&r

    Just finished doing mine on the 3126. i dont have whole days ever so it was a bit of multiple days. i had the driveshafts out for a balance too so i had better access. And the truck needed an oil change so it got done at the same time. my problem area was in the back where the bellhousing...

    Lmtv oil pan r&r

    Any luck with these gasket fixes? I have a nasty leak from mine when the oil gets good and hot. Its the rubber/plastic type currently, i called my local CAT and gave them my engine serial and they said that this calls for RTV instead of a gasket now. oh, mine is a 3126. The only gasket i...

    M1078A1 -10 Technical Manual

    is there still a way to get the TMs? I think i reached out to mototech months ago to no avail. I did download the electrical schematics posted here on page 4. very much looking for the 24p parts manual, as the old A0 one has many outdated PNs. I just pulled my 3126 for a flexplate bolt...

    Findlay Ohio 2021 show, Sell, Trade, Wanted List/ May14-16

    I'm looking for one BF Goodrich baja T/A tire for a humvee. Freight kills the price when looking for just one tire. Looking for a darn good condition one, load range D hopefully. Does anyone need humvee TCMs? I have a pair of them laying around I keep meaning to list. One is older with a...

    Can I use a Niehoff 400amp regulator on a 200amp alternator?

    curious what came of this; still working okay? i had a nice 200a alt show up with a cracked regulator case and just curious if i can buy a $70 regulator instead of a $400 one. another member pointed me toward my current 100a niehoff and sure enough, its the same reg as the 200a. but if i...

    Fan won't return to normal speed after coming on and after temp falls.

    thanks for the reply! yeah the solenoid was showing about 71 ohms across leads when disconnected from the TDM. i did not run the lengthy resistance tests the TM lists for TDM testing, but the failure of the thermostatic switch to close after opening (past usual closing temp) seemed pretty...

    Fan won't return to normal speed after coming on and after temp falls.

    update; fan clutches in fine while idling if i break the circuit at the thermo switch. i did a resistance test at the solenoid connector pins via instructions in a troubleshoot TM. it was easy to do so i checked it. GTG there. next i let the engine warm up and then pulled the throttle...

    Fan won't return to normal speed after coming on and after temp falls.

    Been driving my m998a1 since august last year, the fan cooling system has always functioned correctly. I'd say it comes on around 215 and goes off about 190-200 degrees after running at engine speed for about 30 seconds. (on hot days at 55mph this cycle repeats every couple of minutes). The...

    4l80e problem symptoms

    thanks! i suspected all TCMs were not equal but hadnt been able to get a straight answer. most of my driving is unfortunately on 55mph highways, so being able to do and keep 60 mph would be great. if i could do 65, id feel like i could hop around via the interstate. anything on top of that...

    4l80e problem symptoms

    This thread went quiet a year ago! I'm finally getting serious about my conversion parts list and noticed that a trusted seller has a good price on a PCS TCM-2100BA (he says its for a M1113, I have a 94 M998A1 with GEP 6.5NA). If there really are differently programmed versions of TCMs out...

    M998 HMMWV - V Belt part numbers?

    did anyone ever find the part numbers for the 100 and 200a alternator? i just installed a 100a in upgrade from a 60a and had to go from 2 inner and outer belts to 1 inner and 3 outers. the 3 longer belts (12339359-18) came in the upgrade kit and each has a gnarly twist in them that i cant get...

    Replacement Covers for high back seats?

    I emailed weebee about doing repros of the OEM hiback covers in regular ol green. They don't list humvees on their website specifically but I'd seen they have done them for members in the past. Any of you guys had that done recently? I haven't gotten a reply from them in about 3 or 4 weeks.

    Living with a HMMWV

    Other posters were talking about the horns; my 53 m38a1 jeep has this wicked "MWEEEEP" horn unlike anything ive ever heard. I cant attest to the ww2 MB and GPW jeep horns though. i recall responding to perimeter activity at bagram air field in an unarmored hmmwv without sirens and the driver...

    My new-to-me 1952 USMC M38a1

    I haven't seen much green iron with gloss, but I'm new to the hobby. I have found a few A1's in Marine units with google image searches, best I can tell the semi-gloss was a "thing".

    My new-to-me 1952 USMC M38a1

    it doesnt have the rear bumper, but i have seen pics from marines in lebanon with early a1 hood numbers and nothing but the two bumperettes. the serial number is there but i have no way of knowing that it has always been on this jeep. compared against a small database i found at the g503, the...
