There are only 2 series of manuals for the HMMWV. The first set covers all trucks from the first ones to the A2 series, which includes the M1123. The second set of manuals covers the ECV/REV trucks. The M1123 is the same an an M1097A2 truck, with the main exceptions being it doesn't have the...

I doubt you will find a commercial generator that perfectly lines up with the existing mounting holes, but stranger things have happened. What commercial generator are you talking about? You're asking such a generic question that it's impossible to give a good answer to it. You have 43"...

Yes, he is definitely a reputable source. MacMotors is another, along withKascar and genuinehumveeparts.com/ There are some more, but those are the main ones.

unplugging the cadillac valve engaged the fan, so that eliminated the cadillac valve as the problem. Unplugging the Thermostat switch didn't make the fan engage, and you tested the switch itself and had continuity cold and open when hot, so it tested good. The only other thing in the system that...

If it isn't the temp switch, then it's the TDM. The fan fails to engaged, so it has to have power to it to turn off. Only two sources of power are temp switch and TDM. If it's not the temp switch, it's the TDM (provided everything is wired how it's supposed to be; I always feel the need to add...

6 looks like it's the roof assembly itself. 24 appears to be the overhang or "gutter" as it's often referred to.

all true, but I'm more concerned about what the actual voltage is at the batteries with the gauge sitting right at the top of the green. If it's 29V or below, then the little spikes up above that shouldn't be of particular issue. If it's above that, depending on your battery type, you might...

Do you have the 1998 version of the parts manual or the 2002 updated one? I did a search for the part numbers you listed above, and they aren't in the manual. Then a web search to find the NSN for them. 12480837 is NSN 9535-01-548-6632 12480838 is NSN 9535-01-548-6633 The NSN shows up in the...

Don't trust the gauges. Using a multimeter, what voltage are the batteries reading while all of this is happening?

I was under the impression that a generator is capable of dealing with completely dead batteries which is why the military uses them instead of alternators, which do NOT like trying to charge them when completely dead. I know I've helped replace alternators in vehicles with failed batteries...

That one doesn't have a panel for the straps; those straps are hooked to loops installed on the tailgate itself.

I believe I read on one of the articles about it the idea was to bring lighter versions up to snuff to where they would be able to have armor bolted to them if needed; so all of them became the heavy variant no matter what it started life as.

I believe that it's an adapter to go to the flare type seal from the pipe threads in the caliper body. (I believe it's pipe threads, might be some other type of seal, but pretty sure you need it to keep from leaking)

I first read that as 46.25 oz of weights not 46 x 1/4oz weight and thought something was seriously wrong. 12 oz out of balance is a lot, but still within realistic amounts. As I said in my recent post, one of mine was 9 1/2 oz out of balance. Still, yikes.

The X2's are manufactured by NorthStar, which was purchased a few years back by EnerSys, which also owns the Odyssey brand battery as well. They are probably the single best battery manufacturer in North America. They are a big name in off grid and standby batteries, and I have no reservations...

spray some soapy water to find out. Even a slow leak will generate bubbles. Better to verify that it actually is the O-ring leaking than do all the work only to find a pinhole in the tire or rim (unlikely, but not impossible)

one thing though, you don't want batteries that are any taller than the 6T series. Too tall and they don't fit properly under the seat base/battery box cover, and you increase the risk of shorting them out or damaging them. 6T is 9" high, so nothing taller than that.

I always tell people it depends on how you plan to use the truck. If it's going to stay pretty much always on roads and within cell phone/tow truck range, then run whatever you feel comfortable with. 650+CCA and a decent reserve capacity is all you need in all but the most extreme conditions...

What I'm writing below this might come across as a little rude, which is not my intent, but sometimes it's just how to get a point across. From an outside viewpoint, you came in here, told the expert that has no reason why he should help you that his advice was wrong and that you know better...

You sure it was a 400 amp that you had to lift out? The 200 amp generator weighs about 70 lbs. The 400 amp generator is over 110 lbs.
