    Please help id this stuff

    The first aid kit mounts there. It's where I mounted my Solargizer and I keep a gallon of distilled water there for the batteries.

    Voltage charging help

    The #2A wire is the AC output from the alternator that tells the control box that the engine is running. That in turn keeps you from accidentally actuating the starter on an already running engine.

    Exhaust gasket number

    There are actually three of them on the "Y" pipe coming down from the manifolds to the muffler and then another one used in the tail pipe extension. The drawing only shows three in this application but most of us just have a single muffler.

    Small (amusing) HMMWV admirer

    Here in the SF Bay Area they have a fund raising program called "Touch a Truck" where kids and families can look at the trucks and sit in them. We had an M998 and an M996A1 ambulance and the kids had a ball with them. It's surprising how many Moms and Dads had questions about them too. There...

    New to me m998 what year is it

    Depending on the state you live in registration varies. The date on the data plate would be the manufacture and delivery date to the military. Chances are that 1996 is the year the truck was first registered by the PD but the data plate itself is the determining article.

    M998 Antenna mount

    Tom R, There's only 1 backup plate in the installation. Greg's picture showed one of the early and later style plates. In a pinch you could use large diameter washers (fender washers) but you'll want to double or triple them up to add rigidity to the bracket.

    Best place to buy soft top and C pillar?

    Yes, the shipping is the hard part because of their size and shape. All three pieces are still available if you want them.

    M998 Antenna mount

    With this style antenna mount you want to add a triangular backing plate inside the panel or the whipping of the antenna will tear it off of the truck. It's a part of the original antenna installation kit that often gets lost when they get removed from vehicles. Easy to make from 1/8" aluminum.

    4 person intercom with ability to link in cell phone

    Augi (Cam) upgraded the interfaces to fit into a C-2298 box that replaced his original design and may still have a few around. After selling out of the early model the demand wasn't great enough to do another run. My suggestion is to send him a PM and see what he's up to now. Maybe if enough...

    Grommet

    Super glue will work on Buna-N O-rings but doesn't do well on viton or silicone.

    Grommet

    Best place to get these is McMaster-Carr here: https://www.mcmaster.com/rubber-grommets. I have no idea what the previous post is saying about the size of the grommet but we generally don't measure things in 1/125 of an inch that I'm aware of! The hole is about 1.250" in diameter.

    12338824 Bumper, Nonmetallic-Windshield Bumper

    I believe that they are the same as the ones AMG used on the M151 windshields so there's another source for them.

    Transmission issue, help!

    If the pressure relief spring in the pump is bad it'll do this by bypassing all the pump output back into the case.

    Transmission issue, help!

    Unless it's been added there is no PARK in a HMMWV TH400 transmission. Here's a link to a You Tube video on pressure testing a TH400 trans: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SADOTGVJjtM It could be something as simple as the pressure relief spring on the pump breaking but I don't think it's...

    Cables

    When looking for cables you might want to add what vehicle your looking to outfit. 23 foot HMMWV 4723s aren't going to do you much good in an M151. The more specific you are about your cables the better your chances of finding them.
