    FLU419 SEE HMMH HME Owners group

    . That valve has a little rubber disc and a couple of O-Rings inside. It could be that "the creeping crud" got inside it and cleaning it will make it better. BE CAREFUL when you take it apart because there is a little spring that holds the disc in place and you don't want to lose it. It is...

    Stewart and Stevenson for an Overland Camper?

    . I know there are CAT dealers that can and will. Most of these 107X and 108X Stewart & Stevenson trucks have a 3116 or 3127 or possibly a C7 power plants. All are CAT repairable but like @TomTime mentioned, some are Truck specific and others are Earth Moving dealerships. There are some that...

    Greetings from Las Vegas

    . Welcome to the Outfit! There are plenty of Stewart & Stevenson's that can be had on the cheap. Of course you might end up spending twenty times your original investment be the time you get every piece of rubber on the truck replaced, along with things like windows that need repair, tires...

    Stewart and Stevenson for an Overland Camper?

    . Welcome to the Outfit! There are several guys here that have built or are currently building what you have described. Deciding on 3 axle or 2 axle is a personal thing - or maybe what you can find. Heck, you might find one of the cargo version of the S&S truck and affix an old camper trailer...

    WA state cancelling MV titles

    . I also have a Wisconsin Case Case No. TR-11-0016 answering "In the Matter of a Denial of a Registration" on a Chevy Blazer where the MIL-STD was used to put this case in favor of the MV owner. So, don't hesitate to whip out the book of rules and use them to your benefit! .

    Chicken shield height?

    . @Soupermike , The NSN's are listed starting in the Operators Manual on PDF Page 360 in TM9 2320-387-10 wChg6 (Attached). Still trying to poke around for some possible dimensions...

    Are market lights required to be legal?

    . Considering that you are in Texas, here is the law. https://texas.public.law/statutes/tex._transp._code_section_547.352 You might be well advised to consider driving in other states might have other rules and DOT Federal rules might be a good source of information. See Attached.

    Chicken shield height?

    . Well, I was pretty sure you already knew that - but stranger things have happened here. .

    Chicken shield height?

    . Ummm... Somebody else might speak up and say otherwise, but the "chicken" part of the description is a bit of a misnomer. I am here to state clearly that anybody on the receiving end of incoming fire is not a chicken. That metal box is protection most recently used in the sandbox wars...

    Chicken shield height?

    . I thought - Gee, this will be easy. It ain't! There are multiple variations on these chicken boxes... I snagged a few pictures that will give you a SWAG on height. If we could find a particular NSN, we could get better answers.

    Batteries.... ?

    . Fancy New Imported Crap now days. Like a lot of other things, made it cheaper "not here" and quality has gone out the window...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    . The problem is that your truck has to fit the blocks on their form. Here in our state - when I finally figured out - my life just got a whole LOT EASIER. Also found out when I volunteered information it actually made it worse.

    Newbie, need info on this truck, questions

    . The default for the 5-Ton trucks (M939 Series) are the numbers that Simp mentioned earlier. 5 Tons of Cargo offroad and 10 Tons of Cargo on paved surface roads. The military didn't really buy trucks without a body. The wrecker version (also mentioned earlier) for example is heavier than the...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    . Thanks @Coug ! I had considered linseed oil and that might be the trick. Thinned is even better so it can seep into the cracks a little better too. My "problem in need of a solution" is actually slabs of Red Oak. Unfortunately, I think I hijacked the thread about the wooden 30 cal :-( OR...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    . Wonder how that would work for trailer decking? Back in the day, the wood decking would get "chewed up" on a lowboy because of the cleats on doziers. These days I don't haul that kind of equipment AND it is my trailer and my brand new decking... Makes a body wonder if AFT brushed onto that...

    Any idea what this is?

    . Like on a F-600 and up maybe?

    heater fan motor would not start.

    . Customs folks are an awful lot like building inspectors... They couldn't "hack it" in the real world and got themselves a gouberment job and discovered that they could make life miserable for everybody else,

    Newbie, need info on this truck, questions

    . Nah, not thick - Just making sure it will do the job before you hand over the money. That makes sense and it is a smart way to go about considering any sort of purchase. The "etched in stone" answers would be on the military metal plates on the dash. Those plates will confirm what the...
