Yeah, thats what the site said when I got there... oh well. Id love to get a set of each, so I have a backup set, and I can investigate sourcing an alternate (or have them made similar to how I did with the sheet metal panels).
Craig as you have found, they are out of stock in almost all places at the moment. Just put a call into Airtex ASC... they are not discontinued thankfully. They are on national backorder, coming in from overseas. They have a tentative landed date of 3/15. A great time for folks to start getting...
I've seen users before who have mounted up their 802s onto the basic Harbor Freight trailer (https://www.harborfreight.com/1195-lb-Capacity-48-in-x-96-in-Heavy-Duty-Folding-Trailer-62666.html).
Just had a coupon come across the inbox this morning on this unit, for anyone who has been...
Look at what I stumbled upon this morning, for those that dont want to hobble together..

I think you mean you are missing the primary fuel pump (which would be bolted to the case to the side of the radiator) and fuel shutoff solenoid (Which is whats missing from the engine block).

Posting about current auctions is against the site guidelines, but if you want to PM the link to me I'd be happy to give you my thoughts, for whatever they are worth.
Ive used this model many times on customer machines: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/traveller-t-51r-automotive-battery?solr=1&cm_vc=-10005
Little trick to Tractor Supply (at least all of them around here)... buy them online, they can't ask you for a core turn in like if you bought in...
These sets are not getting easier to find, or less expensive (at least sets that don't look like Tim Curry in the Rocky Horror Picture Show, or that were rolled behind a HMMWV). If you are seriously considering buying one you will have to deal with items like this.
Fuel leak is no big deal, so...
You can get a brand new alternator on the big auction site under the search term "MILITARY MEP 802A 803A GENERATOR 24 VOLT 35A REPLACEMENT ALTERNATOR 8MR3005 ". $219 plus freight.
Seller happens to be SS member Suprman, maybe you can reach out to him directly on it.
In looking through my notes, I have purchased this before: https://www.armyjeepparts.com/p-2338-34094-lusterless-carc-green-rattle-can-34094.aspx
