    Also when pulling trees over, or any other extreme work, it’s safest for you and the truck to use the rear pintle. Several tons of weight in the bed helps.

    m925a2

    Your transmission needs to be in neutral for the pto to spin while the truck is stationary. You could check your hydraulic pressure to make sure is adjusted correctly, but these hydraulic winches are pretty gutless, at least with the drum nearly full of cable. My winch will not drag my truck at...

    Cargo bed mounts

    Where they’re riveted to the frame? I can only guess without grinding one off, 3/8” min, 1/2” max…

    Cargo bed mounts

    Rear mount. Had 3/4x2-3/4” bolts from the factory. Mid mount, the same. The front mount had two captured double springs with two 5/8x9-3/4” bolts per side. Let me know if you need anything else, I finally have my truck back at the house for the summer.

    Steelsoldiers’ BIG M1152A1 HMMWV Project!!

    Looking great! All that time spent doing it correctly will really pay off. Also make sure you get your lighting worked out, black is hard enough already. Plus it’s very tough getting a solid covering over color matching primer, especially if you can’t see the wet edge on all those irregular...

    Can I revisit wet stacking?

    Add some grape cool aid, and I’ll bet you can eradicate every raccoon, skunk and possum within a three mile radius with that!

    923A1 Trouble After Welding

    They most likely blew the diode on the top (start) solenoid in the pcb while monkeying with batteries or reconnecting them wrong with the switches on. Never let a shop unfamiliar with these trucks operate them or touch the electrical system.

    923A1 Trouble After Welding

    If your battery switch is still functioning, jumping the big C&D terminal is not going to help, as that is essentially what the battery switch does. Try screwing the fuel shut off in, flipping the battery switch on, start switch to run, then jump the small trigger wire (#74 iirc?) terminal and...

    Feasibility of Solar Panel augmentation with existing MEP backup/additive power or just add larger genset?

    First, I know very little, and by no means am l a solar or electrical expert by a long stretch! I know there are charge controllers that have a generator start function for when your house battery bank gets low. Then I think there are large split phase inverter systems that can handle your A/c...

    Japanese tires, made in the US of A! I think most of our Nittos are made here. My wife has a set of Ridge Grapplers on here Jeep, been a very good tire so far. I also run a lot of Toyos, great tires as well, but those I have are made in Japan.

    Saw this at the Navy UDT-SEAL Museum in Ft Pierce. Don’t know much about HMMWVs to know what mods it had done. . I found the wheels and tires interesting. This museum is a must do if you’re in the area, very well put together and so many incredible MV’s.

    Hybrid Humvees

    My guess is it’s just proof of concept prototype, that would undergo a lot of tidying up as it made its way towards reality.

    Why not in the “typical” location between the engine and transmission?

    So many questions.. I bought a new 07 seagrave chassis

    “A” dual voltage system is quite common on military vehicles. Between the CUCV, HMMWV and FMTV guys I’ll bet they can help feel your way through yours. What do you plan on putting on top of your chassis?
