ALCON,
I am in the process of installing air conditioning in my M998A1 and need help with the installation of the rear condensers that mount under the wheel wells. Does anyone have an MWO covering the installation? I have most of the equipment, (Red Dot A/C kit) and one of the condensers. I...
The skid plate you see is the military HMMWV Under-Body Protection Kit as recieved from a DOD contractor. Its not much to look at. It might stop a puncture from a tree limb or a hard hit from a rock. Side note: It does cover the yoke of the prop shaft at the diff. P/N #6005553
Hope that helps

Thank you for the help. The tank went right in. All I have left is to modify the shim and stab the prop shaft.
One last question, is their any good way to set the 1/2" distance on the strap and still pull torque? I just snubbed the nut up to the bolt shoulder and set torque. Is this right...
This is exactly the information I am looking for. This is what I have. Yes it looks like my M998 had been updated for MWO 9-2320-280-35-1. No tag but all parts are in place. My yoke does have the disk in place so I am thinking it still has the old yoke and prop shaft. The fuel tank I am trying...
I certainly could use some advice.
I couldn't get my old tank to stop leaking so I bought a brand new one off of Ebay. First the tank is differently shaped from the old tank and I purchased the additional guard that is required for the new tank. As I try to slip it in it just wont fit. My M998...
Word to the wise, I was able to get my money back on the Falcon III but the unit is for Video only via radio signal from drones. I am moving forward with trying to find PRC-117 or something that will fit in a Sincgars mount.
In a moment of weakness, I bought a Harris Falcon III RF-7800T-HH011 ISR for $1,900 (Used) without thinking if I would have the ability to program or even use the thing. Did I mess up here??? Sure could use some advice. On a side note, I did see that Murphy is selling the vehicle mount for the...
I totaly agree. I would perfer not to have to answer questions as to why and how I ended up with a comsec card. I have searched for someone that could build a jumper card for me with no luck. So as of now, my 1523A makes on **** of a book end. I think I am going to look into the PRC-117 option...
Did anyone figure out how to get the radio working? I have been setting my system up for awhile with no luck. Can't get my RT1523 to power up. I believe it's an A version and yes the comsec card is gon as well as the feq swap card. I thought it would at least power up and error out. Anyone have...
I would like to get my hands on a RT-1439 to complete my HMMWV rebuild or any working radio that will fit into my Sincgars mount.
Drop me a line if you have a lead on one.
Thanks

Any updates on the A2 tank I am about to change mine out. I have dropped my original tank twice already and cannot get it to stop leaking from the top. I have replaced the gasket and used Permatex gasket sealer (For Fuel) from auto zone with no luck. The bolted edge of the plastic tank where the...
Great advice, I installed my High Back Seat Kit 57K0290 this weekend. Yes there was a lot of rivets to deal with, but its done and looks great. Can anyone tell me how they verified the torque for the driver set base to the rail support. On my seat their is not enough clearance to get a socket on...
Update, I went ahead and ordered replacement seat and cargo covers for the rear high back seats PN #12446966 and PN #12446967. I will let everyone know how the install went when they come in.

I am thinking about installing rear High Back Seats in my M998. Currently I have the standard 2 piece. Can I use the bottom seat/cargo cover the HMMWV came with or do I need to replace it with a reinforced version. The drawing from TM 9-2320-280-24P-2 Figure 454 looks like it bolts right...
