Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
I managed to get a spare tire carrier with three bent pins and no bracket. I looked at all the photos on the internet and drew the bracket in Solidedge, cut it out, and welded it together. I straightened the least bent pin.

I just need to get the squared locking pins.
Can someone tell me what the original dimensions are?
We're in Miami for the holidays, so I already have a long list of things to get.
My wife has no idea that we will be a little overweight on the way home!
[/QUOTEAbout 3 inches ( 2 x3/4 would work) from head shoulder to tip, 1 and 1/2 inch between the wire to pin. 2 different diameters, the smallest available at tractor supply for the wrench handle (1/4 inch) The bracket appears to be 5/16 or 3/8 dia. It's pouring rain here or I would be more precise. Any farm implement dealer stocks this stuff. If I remember correctly these shops are congregated out north of the airport.

Does the Noco put off enough heat to require venting? Have you placed a thermometer. A guy with a rare hummer H1 just burned to the ground due to a trickle charger of all things.Added a NOCO dual battery charger and inlet on the battery box (so you dont have to remove the passenger seat to charge it).
As a bonus, I wired in the block heater to the inlet, and added a switch to turn the block heater on and off.

What model NOCO did you get? Since I don't know....this will work OK if the batteries are hooked up in series?Added a NOCO dual battery charger and inlet on the battery box (so you dont have to remove the passenger seat to charge it).

Something must have gone way wrong for a fire to happen IMO. Something probably short circuited. I have not measured any temperatures but this is the same charger that I used on my last humvee, and I left that one plugged in 24/7 for about a year with no issues.Does the No I put off enough heat to require venting?

NOCO Gen 5x2. Its designed to work with batteries whether they are series, parallel, or on separate circuits. I conformed this with NOCO.What model NOCO did you get? Since I don't know....this will work OK if the batteries are hooked up in series?
The GEP18002668 plugs went in today after yesterday's no-start.i just personally haven’t seen AC15G’s in years, maybe they are back in production, the Govt doesn’t use them, OEM plugs are made by Wellman.
There is a new plug out now made in Germany for GEP, HPG sells them, part no. GEP18002668-8
