I guess I'm assuming that you would have to drop the tank for that, but I haven't looked to see where the sender is. Sounds like its easier than I assumed.
Ended up with type IX CARC because that's what I could find.
I used an MSA Millenium mask with a PAPR setup (powered air purifying respirator) and a new NBC filter which worked wonderfully. The positive pressure ensures that even without a perfect seal you wont be breating anything that doesnt...
This is secondhand information, but I heard a story of a guy who had an H1 with CTIS and got a flat tire in a parking lot...apparently he had something set wrong and it resulted in all four tires going flat since they were all connected with the CTIS plumbing. Allegedly, could be a made up story...
Lol, its a thing you need on the newer aluminum roofs of m1151's. Most of them in service have armored roof overlays that keep water from getting into the top of the doors. If they remove that piece during the demil process, all of the rain will run down the roof and right into your doors.

Made some rain gutters out of 1/4" thick aluminum sheets. I think they look better than the OEM rain gutters (looks like it has the armored roof now).
Also added a turret hole cap, installed a new connector for the main alternator 24v output (had to purchase a giant hydraulic crimp tool for...

Saying paint should be banned because its dangerous is like saying guns should be...
This post is full of sensationalism.
There are 5 different types of CARC and they have become much safer over the years. I'm going to be using low VOC type IV waterborn CARC which is much different than what was sprayed decades ago.
I already obtained and reviewed the MSDS sheet for type IV...
Yeah that's Gillespie paint, same stuff that Rapco sells. I've used it before and it's not bad paint. It's just not 100% as flat as CARC, and I want to stay authentic as possible.
So glad the government is keeping us safe from paint, meanwhile giving fully armored humvees to the taliban :rolleyes:
I just want to spray the stuff outdoors with a respirator, looking to buy the water based stuff. Shouldn't be a big deal.
