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.

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.

This may be a good place for this. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/banks-hybrid-power-3-0l-v6-hmmwv.217668/

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

Put a 4-sale sign on it, “Ran when parked”.

“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?

6x6 Grizzly?!!! Theres a reason they scraped those body’s, if it ever received one… man they were fugly! That should be one cool chassis though! I doubt you’re going to find any manuals, but please post up a bunch of photos and we’ll see if we can figure it out.

Am I guessing correctly that 5kw would be about 3.5 times more than needed at -14F? Right or wrong can you translate what the unit run time percentage would be? I know an oversize unit will drive you crazy especially in a small space.

I’ll drop these here, but please don’t blow up the guys in these threads with a bunch of questions. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/m939-cab-armor-kit.136375/ https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/did-they-ever-make-an-armored-cab-upgrade-package-for-m939-series-cabs-i-e-m923a2.125565/...

Just got to thinking, an 855 is going to be heavy for a deuce front axle, with winch would be no way.

I think this really depends on what your intentions are with the truck? The 5 ton should be fine unless you’re going to bob, race, or pull with it. A 2.5 ton “maybe” for an empty cruiser, driven cautiously. Which for me is impossible in a overpowered, “lightweight” vehicle.

What truck are we working with?

Or, a snug fitting tube going through both of your existing tow eyes, with tow-bar axle clamps on the outside of the eyes? Also, before we get you excited and hacking up your bumper, make certain your pickup is flat towable!

Or add a protruding, heavy tab on one side or preferably in the center of the upright.

How wide is the flange (between yellow arrows)on the front of your push bar? If your tow-bar feet will straddle it, maybe build up both sides of the web with plate (in red) then drill a hole for the pins?

Not sure on the TM’s. @WillWagner pointed this out on here years ago and it made an incredible difference in cranking time from my experience. I would dare to guess it would be the same with the mechanical cummins B, Ford, and IH motors that use the same type of injection pumps as well. I have...

Yes, a typical paint gun regulator plugs in between the quick connect on the end of your air hose, and your air tool/fuel tank. Most guys drill their fuel cap for a valve stem and wing it. Adding air pressure until they hear the tank starting to swell, with the tank vents trying to act as a...

Hopefully you can get the rod back on and weld some junk across it to keep it on, so you don’t have to chain the axle up. Not sure what the frame of the ISO bed looks like or if you can even get chains around it to chain the axle up? But if it’s like the standard beds thin c-channel frame, make...

Same procedure, minus the bleed screw. Air is going in where you see fuel coming out. Just be careful pressurizing the tank, it doesn’t take much pressure to turn a cube into a cylinder.

I think thats a bridge truck is why the bed is 10’ wide. Id be curios what the width is at the rear with the tires singled out. Also not sure why you need a block? Likely a piston liner kit or 6. Maybe a rod or two from forcing it over…
