    Where to find real CARC?

    I only want real CARC, Rapco just doesn't look right to me. I know people have gotten it, just don't know where.

    Where to find real CARC?

    Anyone know where to purchase real CARC paint? Sherwin Williams is giving me the run around, and MilSpray told me they cannot sell CARC to civilians.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    West Kentucky Surplus. They are a pretty accurate reproduction of a standard X door, and most importantly you can actually find them! The doors are unrelated to my stop at Mac Motors, that was just for some odds and ends.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Stopped by Mac Motors, grabbed a bunch of parts, fixed my tachometer, and got 2 doors installed!

    Tachometer works now!!!!

    Wires 2B and 2C on M1151

    I double checked, and 2C is actually a ring lug. 2B is a packard conector (male housing, female pin). Conveniently, 2C will plug into 2A, and the ring lug can go on the AC output of the alternator regulator. I'm gonna try that and see what happens.

    Wires 2B and 2C on M1151

    Wait a minute, here is the copy of that TM I'm looking at, which only goes up to page 953: https://www.hmmwvinscale.com/ARMY%20TM%209-2320-280-20-2%20Technical%20Manual%20Unit%20Maintenance.pdf And you're saying that A B and C can all just be spliced together?

    Wires 2B and 2C on M1151

    Interesting, thanks! I think that's probably something that was removed at some point. Pretty sure I don't have an arctic heater but I'll take a closer look tonight.

    Wires 2B and 2C on M1151

    There is 2A that goes to the generator. But I dont have any open terminals on the generator at this point, and I dont have any charging issues that I know of.

    Wires 2B and 2C on M1151

    I've searched the TM for 2B and 2C but got zero results. I also searched this website and google, but found nothing. I have 2 wires dangling under the hood, labeled 2B and 2C. One is male and one is female (I think?). They are part of the same wiring harness with no other wires, and they run...

    Light switch mod for safety

    That definitely seems better. You still wont be able to drive with 100% no lights (you'll need blackout lights at a minimum which isnt fully stealth). However I'd say that anyone close enough to see your blackout lights are going to hear the engine long before they see you. Personally I'd still...

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    Well the good news is I get ZERO smoke or vapor coming out of the oil fill neck when its running. So I'm guessing everything is fine?

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    It looks like the cdr valve was bypassed. There is a tube tucked into another tube, that runs from the air intake to the oil fill.

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    Odometer says 13K but who knows. It's a GEP 6.5 turbo and looks pretty new (relatively speaking). Serial number of the truck is 258XXX range.

    Light switch mod for safety

    While this does seem like a good idea, there is some downside. I occasionally do night vision driving, and like to have full control over the lights. While not a great idea (or legal) to drive on the road at night with no lights, its certainly legal and fun to drive in the woods with no lights...

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    Okay, glad I asked because I had no idea to look for that. It seems insanely stupid that they would remove these parts and leave the vehicle in this condition, just so people cant drive through deep water. If you're going to remove a critical part, at least replace it with something that will...

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    I assume it had the fording kit, because it did include the snorkel (although not installed) and the extended exhaust pipe. There is a hole in the dash where the fording valve was once installed. I will check to see if the CDR valve is there, thanks for the heads up!

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    Thanks! I'm wondering why the hell they would remove the filter in the first place? I remember when I bid on my truck seeing a few other trucks where it was disclosed that the air filter was removed. Why on earth would they do that? I assume it's somehow related to the demilitarization process...
