    Back Up Camera for M1009?

    . Smart move using Zip Ties to test fit it before you spend the time and effort to bolt it in place permanently. Need to think about what happens when somebody behind you has their headlights on high beam. Does that "blind" your camera? Could a different angle work better for you?

    "There's something wrong with these droids you sold me"

    . The tracked vehicle looks like something from Star Wars to me. It wouldn't roll under a traffic light - but it sure would be fun to play with!

    modern dual circuit air over hydraulic brakes

    . Absolutely! And bolting on parts that have "a pedigree" of sorts is definitely designing from scratch. And, like you said too - engineering done by somebody else helps with the drama. I think you could easily post "screen grabs" to show the design elements without any complaints from the...

    "There's something wrong with these droids you sold me"

    . Might be a HEMTT - but not enough wheels in the back

    Idler arm question

    . The easy answer on the condition for the idler arm is just like the tie rods. You should "push the swivel" to both extremes and it "shouldn't feel gritty" and so far as wear is concerned if you push it to one extreme or the other - it should not fall back the other direction. In other words...

    Tale of two Deuces

    . They have some really nice guns too!

    Tale of two Deuces

    . Another way to go is a pintle hook on the side. Your exercise for the day will be hustling it into place. :cool: Picture is one of our member trucks.

    Deuce Camo Active Duty

    . I wondered if maybe it was a home grown shelter to be used as a "tool wagon" for the maintenance group...

    Another M1010 owner

    . Looks pretty good so far to me... Some trim when you get finished fitting it all in place - and it should be as nice as the picture of the inside. :cool:

    Info on MV850

    . Good Deal! Happy to hear it. Figured it was definitely worth mentioning.

    Info on MV850

    . You mentioned Polaris. Have you searched around about Polaris and Recall to make sure you don't have a problem where your steering wheel "becomes disengaged"?

    Humvee Fuel Tank Overfill Causing a leak?

    . Kinda have to agree with the rest of the guys... Either a loose clamp or dry rotted hose on the filler neck or on the tank itself. (or both)

    Here We Go Again Low Voltage M1009

    . Voltages look good. Sounds to me like the switch is bad.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    . I have to ask... No chance of working in that barn behind your truck? It would still be hot, but it would be in the shade... Nice looking truck. Yeah, solo is a whole lot more difficult than if you had an extra set of hands (most of the time).

    Too broke for Sturgis Bike and Car Show

    I have a little bucket with army men to give to the kids. They got a kick out of getting in the truck and getting a souvenir!! . Something as a give away... Yes sir, I decided last time when I did my first "Touch A Truck" event that having something was just about a requirement. The Library...

    modern dual circuit air over hydraulic brakes

    . My opinion - for what that is worth - is that your idea is pretty sound. The lawyer dogs will be all over you if anything ever goes wrong though. They will be asking questions about your personal pedigree and where your engineering sheep skin is. Even if your idea is better by thirty years...

    Too broke for Sturgis Bike and Car Show

    . She is such a cutie... Yeah, I mean that the little girl is cute too. :) The balloon matches Bertha? Was that your plan @kendelrio ?
