    FS M274A2 main data plates Price Dropped

    About 25+ years ago when I first got my Mule I had the main data plate reproduced by a company here in California. I still have some of them that I recently found in the garage that I thought I'd offer to other Mule owners. They are the same gauge aluminum as the originals and are black...

    Civilian car cover for the 151?

    The M151 is 132" x 64" x 71" and the CJ5 is 138" x 59" x 69" so it looks like that's the way to go.

    M37 radio?

    I love the old boatanchors! I've still got the Hallicrafters SX-24 Skyrider Defiant that my Dad brought home after WWII. It was my first radio and it still works fine although a bit dustier. It has 2 twin sisters along with a National NC-33 and a Hammarlund HQ-150. It's sad to say that...

    Antenna AT-677/VR -what is it for?

    VHF radio? VHF runs from 30 mhz thru 300 mhz. What radio are you planning on using and at what frequency? That'll determine which antenna you need to use. Some of the newer Shakespeare antennas like the SF-3512s will run all the way up to 512 mhz and are commonly found online. Staying on...

    M37 radio?

    The GRC-19 is a nice rig but I think it's a little overkill if just used as a display radio though. That and unless you have the T-195B transmitter it annoyingly tunes all the way to the bottom end and then up again when you change frequencies. Big, bulky power hungry radio. Like G744 says, the...

    Radio questions

    Either of those radios will work fine in the 6352, now all you need to do is find one of them! I've run a 1439 in the MT-6567 single mount for years in my ambulance because there isn't room for the full double stack rack between it and the rear body access door. Recently I modified a PRC-138...

    How do you replace the boots on the electrical connections?

    "Archeologists are still confused that they can only find evidence supporting 2 genders" LOL Typically in electrical connectors the gender is determined by the center conductor. Pins are male and sockets are female. There's no reference to all those others out there................

    5 ton battery switch inoperable

    It's a little hard to tell from the diagrams but is your battery switch breaking the line between the battery and ground or does it break the positive feed line? Breaking the ground lead should kill all power to the vehicle.

    Hmmwv m998 Hardtop B Pillar Install

    I'm not sure if I understand your problem. Are you trying to install the top without the intermediate bracket that goes between the top and the body section of the B pillar? I think what you need is the C shaped bracket that's about a foot long that all 16 of the 5/16 bolts that Action...

    3 speed oil filter help

    Most trans shops recommend putting 2 O-rings on the plastic tube where it goes into the transmission housing. This allows the filter to "float" around like in your video but still stay sealed to the housing. It basically lays in the bottom of the pan.

    Painting m998

    If you look at the federal color code charts you'll see that a "1" prefix means a gloss finish, "2" means semi-gloss, and "3" means flat. So 34094 would be a flat finish paint. It would be nice if someone would put together a chart referencing Federal color codes to those of Behr...

    Buying HMMWV from law enforcement agency

    My M1026 came from the California Department of Forestry. They had screened it to use on the fire lines but it had problems and they parked it. It sat for almost 5 years and then they auctioned it off after a change of command and a general cleanup. I've seen local law enforcement sell these...

    MX-6707 antenna piece compatibility

    The AB-21 is the only one that will screw in directly to the AS-1730 lower mast section of the AS-1729 antenna. The other sections will then attach to the AB-21. It has the same thread as the MS-116 1 meter mast section.

    Wobble at 35..

    When you reassembled your wheels did you use the centering washers on the studs? They don't need to be on every stud, 3 per wheel are enough on 12 bolt wheels. The centering washers are part number 6001844. I don't believe the military ever used them but the H1s did and correcting a problem...

    The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

    Consider yourself lucky, you got a set of new, matching batteries that will run your truck for years without the expense other have gone thru to buy crappy 6TN/Ls or Optimas. As long as they hold a charge and start the truck what more do you want? Reposition them end-to-end and the original...
