The bose headset has a battery built in but I think it is to power the ANR function while dismounted. I will post when or if I ever have it figured out.
The vic3 system supports ANR and Vic-1 does not. A company makes a module to replace teh A-80 module in the crewstations and this allows the use of Bose ANR headsets. Only that one component needs to changed and it will work with other non-modified vic-1 stuff. They are cost prohibitive and I am...
I called the company with the upgrade A80 module and they do not have a price. They do not stock them and make them for every order so the price is dependent on how many are bought. This would mean they are cost prohibitive to me.
The vent line just moves the intake for the vent higher up on the firewall. This is for fording. My five ton has an axle vent on it in stead of the vent line. The axle vent lets pressure out but closes shut when it senses pressure from the outside as when water tries to enter the housing. The...
RE: Re: RE: Trying a slightly different Wiper Blade Approach

I don't know how long the pump will work. It says it is for clear water only. People making bio diesel have been using a cheap clear water pump from HF and they seem to not have a problem with them breaking down. I just got two of them. One will be used for my bio diesel reactor and the other...
Thrash pump is for stuff like pumping rain water out of a construction hole. The have a small gas engine that runs a large pump that has a high volume at low pressure. They have them at harbor freight in the same section as the sump pumps. The trash pumps have a semi rigid suction hose and the...
I have a buddy in Germany that said he can get M-8 scout cars pretty cheap and I thought he said they were in Denmark. If you get a couple of those for me I will gladly send you my Deuce or my M818.
Georgia is considered an ally so I would bet we sold, loaned, or gave the trucks to them. There was a thread a few weeks ago that had the Russians driving some pilfered Humvees home.
RE: Re: RE: 3 batteries?
The 800 series had 4 batteries. I am pretty sure the older M39 series such as the M54 with the gas, mack or multifuel had two batteries.
The air activates the master cylinder taking the place of your foot on a regular vehicle. The air pressure activates when you push on the brakes in the truck. The air pressure pushes the master cylinder on the trailer which transfers the air pressure to hydraulic pressure that activates the...
