    Towing Drash Trailer home

    I know my 24 bolt 37" Hmmwv runflats are about 170lbs a piece. I have two if those loose. Any idea how much a 12 bolt 37" runflat weigh? I know they are less, but how much? Figured, 3 tires would work... For sure! My schedule doesn't always let me get away and play over the weekends, but I...

    Perfect! I am glad I wasn't that far off, with what I was thinking of doing with it.

    Towing Drash Trailer home

    Yes! This is was the first one out of the two. I still haven't decided what I am going to do long term with it, but I think it might make a nice little utility trailer to add to my collection, if I decide to take the ECU and Genset off. Is that what you were thinking of doing too? All the bits...

    Towing Drash Trailer home

    So I won a trailer, this time a DHS DRASH unit (8340014594352), trailer appears to be made in 2007 by NorthEast Fabricators, Walton New York. By the way, any idea where I can find a TM for the trailer and/or Isuzu generator set? Anyhow, yard is about 100 miles away, and I was going to drive...

    Part Source for newly adopted 803A?

    No, I was referring to the gauges reading output voltage. And no, I was not aware that you are not supposed to turn the AC Voltage Reconnection Switch while running. Both the -10 and the labels say make sure you disconnect load before switching, I did not see it say not to switch it while...

    Part Source for newly adopted 803A?

    Yeah, I have been reading the TM last night. It says that portion of the roof is sealed with Silicone in addition to screws. Any tips there? Just regular silicone to re-seal?

    Ok, I'll start looking. Pulling off the roof is not a problem. I already have it off the engine area to change the fuel return lines....

    Part Source for newly adopted 803A?

    I picked up my second MEP803A this weekend. Unlike my first one, which was a Mint reset, this one is missing some bits, like a Fuel cut off solenoid and a Starter relay (the 1st one/spendy one). Does anyone have a cheaper source for parts on these, besides Greenmountain? Fuel return lines were...

    Lights not working...

    So my latest acquisition is an 1123 that needs a bunch of TLC. So to address the no lights issue, I went looking for 15a in the back of the MLS three lever plug. I was actually confused for a minute, since I couldn't find it. Went around the plug several times, no 15a. So looked up manual, says...

    Trailering home MEP-803A, what kind of trailer should I use?

    I have been reading posts up and down, trying to get acquainted with what generator unit would fit my needs. I believe one or 2 (long-term) 803As would work well. My question was as far as picking one up from GP. As far as trailers, I have the option of my small 4x8 utility trailer which does...

    A2 Black bearing lightweight turret seals..

    So I am in the process of assembling/mounting an A2 style lightweight turret, with Black bearing. The Parts TM calls for 2 rubber seals to be used. One above and one below the turret bearing. I figured out how to fit the top seal (slides right into groove on top of bearing). Where does the...
