    You contracted them to live a truck, not make unsolicited repairs. They had no right

    Rhino Tire Carrier Restoration Questions

    Powder coating this piece is like putting tits on a fish. IMHO

    Rhino Tire Carrier Restoration Questions

    Don't powder coat the threads. I in general don't recommend powder coat. Baked on paint is easier to touch up, and a tire carrier gets bumped and chipped all the time. IMHO

    Speedometer calibration with different tires?

    The law is replacement value! They need to replace what they stole. The price is absolutely NEW to replace the stolen items with dependable driveable items. They stole so they must replace with USEABLE items. That is the law. I have seen mechanics pull crap and this was the yardstick they were...

    Speedometer calibration with different tires?

    You don't need to estimate. You can go to AMG website and government websites to see the price NEW. You can also ask people like RWH.

    Speedometer calibration with different tires?

    This is a case of theft, plain and simple. I know I wouldn’t stand for it. And you have picture evidence.

    Speedometer calibration with different tires?

    Aren’t you an Atty? They Illegally made a change without notifying you and without sending images of the rot. Highly suspect and makes them liable for replacement rims and tires and lawsuit for illegal exchange of parts and theft.

    What size is the crown nut holding the pintle?

    What size is the large crown nut screwed to the pintle. The really large one. I was told incorrectly that it is 1 and 3/4. That size socket will not fit so I'm out 50 clams. Before I purchase another I would like to see what the real size is. I need to transfer the pintle to the pintle...

    Speedometer calibration with different tires?

    12 bolt rims are FINE! I have 24 bolt only because a friend had a set to sell, otherwise I was going to re-use my 8 bolt rims. Stop dwelling on stuff that is not important. Only 12K vehicles needed 24 bolt rims due to the extreme weight.

    M998 civilian alternator not charging - new Delco installed (updated)

    Batteries require MATCHED PAIRS, preferably from the same lot number and certainly starting out as BOTH being unused. You need two batteries sir. Not one.

    M998 civilian alternator not charging - new Delco installed (updated)

    This could be anything from an insufficient alternator to a belt that gets loose when warmed up and then starts slipping. Couple that with a high amp draw stereo and mismatched batteries and there she is.

    M998 civilian alternator not charging - new Delco installed (updated)

    These are not H1 units, so how did your vehicle ever get a Delco? I would go back to a military unit. Isn't 86HUMV in Texas now? He can help you out. EDIT - I see you are a new member. WELCOME to the fun and games! Please post pics of your rig. Please post pics of your engine bay. Please post...

    Speedometer calibration with different tires?

    Your pics show standard 37" tires. Check the PSI is at proper level and I would not sweat this too much. As far as the different tires... That is a violation of their "Iron Clad Policy", and you can threaten them with legal action if they don't make it right. Tires cost about $600 per tire.

    Speedometer calibration with different tires?

    Why is your tire diameter only 34.5? that could be your culprit.

    No windshield M1123 - what parts do I need?

    The glass is simple sheet stock windshield that can be cut to size with a pattern at any truck glass shoppe. You will need to make seals out of rubber and then reenforce with silicone windshield grade stuff. I would do that rather than wait for months on end to get the rig on the road. You can...

    Transfer Case Cooling Loop

    Unless you’re routinely pulling 5k lbs. uphill 400 miles in the desert at high noon, I don’t see the advantage of the cooling loop other than one more thing to go bad.

    Stock horn location

    Like Action says, if you crawl under your rig, the horn is mounted horizontally just off to the driver's side, about 16 inches up from the frame rails and about 6-10 inches off from center to the driver's side and about 18-24 inches back from the front bumper. Sure you're asking about "stock...
