    HET / M1070 To Pull The Sled this Thursday the 26th need advice!

    I pulled with my HEMTT and there was never any issue even with the pintle height. I pulled after the pro class and with the same sled settings as them. I don't really see what the sled owner/operators issue was. The likelihood of damage to the sled is extremely slim, but the puller is high. I...

    88 977 hemtt

    Karl, my M985 has 2 tanks under the battery tray and 2 more slightly larger ones behind the fuel tank. I have to say you have a bad check valve feeding the primary tanks but I can't tell you where it is located. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

    Can anyone back up a M101?

    Try an M105 hooked to the back of a HEMTT, that was interesting.

    HEMTT vin

    As far as I know the only VIN are on the tags on the drivers door or a plate by the shifter. But I haven't looked to see otherwise. You may try to reach out to Oshkosh and see if they will answer your questions.

    LS Engine Swap, why?

    I am referring to the 3.5 Ecoboost, 365HP 420 Ft#s stock and a simple programmer will push it up a lot. Plus a serious reduction of weigh. The 3.5 is running over 600HP in the Ford GT.

    LS Engine Swap, why?

    How about an Ecoboost swap just to irritate the purists? :)

    53 michelin xzl tires

    Either HEMTT 20" wheel is fine on front. You can use the standard A2 5 ton SS wheel on the rear axles. You can use 6 HEMTT if you like but you only NEED 2. Also, make sure they a 20" as the have been MK48 21" wheels mistakenly sold as HEMTT 20".

    Emissions sticker

    Take note that is for a 2006 H1 which requires a slew of emissions components including: Catalytic converter, EGR, and more. Stick that on a HMMWV and you will have problems in any state requiring diesel emissions.

    M977 HEMTT interior

    I haven't had to do anything to mine. Seen a few that had insulation coming off or missing. Should be straight forward work and not real hard to clean, paint and insulate.

    HEMTT air in fuel and losing prime

    I have never tried.

    HEMTT air in fuel and losing prime

    Just pull the pick up tube from the tank and inspect it. My thoughts are it has some holes corroded into it. Another check could be to fill the fuel tank full and it the air bubbles stop that would also indicate holes in the pick up tube.

    What have you done to your HEMTT/PLS/MK48 this week

    Well, the crane on my M985 has come in handy on several occasions and I take it to car shows and make hot rods nervous.

    Rolling Coal

    Idiots rolling coal here where I live is the sole reason the county implemented a diesel emissions program.

    M939 Series Referbs

    Not an M939 series truck, but I have an M985 HEMTT that went through a "0 Reset/Rebuild" contract program at Oshkosh. This is a strip to frame and send down the assembly line type program that basically makes it new again and has warranty. They run down the line with new truck builds at the same...

    HEMTT seat upgrade to A2 style

    I replaced my spring seats with High back air rides that have shoulder harness'. They were take outs from a PLS (m1074) so the pedestal was different. The seat slides mounted directly to my HEMTT pedestals with no mods. Not sure what seats you have but air ride installs are not hard. The...

    Problem with MEP004

    I would think it should have a jamb nut on it. Is it long enough to have one?
