Slight bump for the AM crowd.

If it had a removable hole, it could double as a bumper dumper

So, was working on my son's M49A2C. It was not charging when he bought it. Got another alt from Ferro a while back. Just swapped them out and realized that the newer alt (off HMMWV) doesn't have the exciter wire (Circuit 568 ) on it. Both alternators have the same NSN. We hooked it up...

I sure like mine. Glad you got it Gary.

For many, maybe most hubs, it's clock to lock unless you have dualmatics of course.

As I was departing the rally I saw this through the fence. I had Wheelspinner take a pic from inside and send it to me. CUCV with the M887 Dodge SECM body and converted to a dually using a chassis/ cab rear axle. I see I'm not the only one that built one. Mine is the 5 color MERDC CARC...

Thanks for the pics. I was there for a couple of hours yesterday. Had to get back to the homestead.

I hardly ever use first gear. It labors a bit on the 2-3 change but it's livable. I think the closer ratios in the NV4500 will be an asset.

Welp, going to give it a shot. Outta here at 8A, at the farm park by 1P hopefully.

My solution for not trusting the (transmission) man was to put a gearbox in. Currently has SM465 but it should be on the ground by Monday and the NV4500 finding it's way between the rails.

I'm facing the same difficulty. Unless magic stuff happens tonight, I'll be stuck here too. Really wanted to go. Need to reach out to Ferro, he was bringing me 2 tires.

319cssb, I hope you can get that kit luis1982 has. I have a few but they are all different variants. The one luis1982 is showing is my favorite one. It has a few metric tools and wrenches, the other 2 variants I have do not. Toolboxinc looks almost identical to mine which is a Kipper.

Some of the grime on that rebuilt trans leads me to believe it's not rebuilt, or if he did rebuild it, he has a filthy work environment. I'm not a trans person but no way I would rebuild one knowing that spooge could fall off and ruin my work. Theft of the new pan takes it to another level...

It was my dry attempt at humor.

It will hurt nothing. Lock outs didn't always exist. Coast wear on those parts will be negligible at best. It does give you a great reason to get in there and do a bearing inspection/ repack.

You need to weld up a rack and get a bunch of suitcase weights for the nose of that truck......unless that's the look your after.

Next time you make a run of those on the table, I'd like one. My trip will be short, anything you need hauled either way? Taking my little 5x8 trailer.

Excellent work gentlemen. She sure looks a bit prouder than she did when we looked her over in December. Lots of dormant MVs have been awaken from their slumber lately, many from your AO. I giggle every time I hit the starter button on the M51A2 and she roars to life.
