This would be true. Those radios covered portions of the TV and radio bands used in various countries here in the US. In this case 30 to 88 MHz. Would work if in SINGLE CHANNEL "SC" mode. Had noting to do with antennas as they too tracked or covered the sames range of frequencies. HOPSEC is...

Fussy Hmmwv, not so smart systems gremlins. If kicking the tires and fumbling with the wires fixes it... keep the triple A card handy. I know that's not what we want to hear, but magically working again is a little spooky and it's still September. Boo !! CAM

Ahh... the ANTENNA and not an easy topic. They are everywhere, in just about everything these days. Discovered, studied, applied, theorized, tried and tested and still misunderstood. I'am no expert, but have build my share. Antennas challenges even the best of engineer and mechanical...

Bridge Plate. A little history: Bridge Plates are markings used on Allied vehicles beginning in World War II that indicate the weight of the vehicle in tons as well as the weight classification of the vehicle. This was used to calculate whether a vehicle, or series of vehicles, could safely...

Time warp back 30 some years and this is the way it was done. If there is something better... guess one could try it? If it turns to salad dressing then "I'll have mine on the side" Every now and then you will see read the TM's here on SS. This requires reading the LO's. >...

Would you use that in the transmission of your 4 speed?

Story time... years back while at a car show displaying my M37, I had taken a little walk around taking in the sites. Returning back to my setup, some goof ball was going over in the truck like he owned it. What the heck are you doing! He thought since he paid taxes he owned a piece of it...

Looks like the old spindle nut and locking washer tabs. I would be surprised if anything on these Hmmwv's is original... as in lets get busy in the motor pool and change some stuff. Ooops, missed that upgrade on the spindle nuts. Might want to look into the upgraded locking hardware before a...

The 60 Amp alternator output does / ONLY goes thru the Smart Start / Protective Control Box. The Pin's (contacts of the engine harness connector) are barely sized to handle the 60 amps. (Note can be a problem area) Charging system larger than 60 Amps will have outputs direct to batteries...

Buying the truck, BIG BUCKS $$$... Get the TM's, CHEAP. I don't know of any that had the "owners manual" in the glove box. Matter of fact... no glove box, so there you go. If you grew up with an Erector Set then your on your way to becoming Mr. Hmmwv Mechanic, with TM,s in hand. If...

There you go. Always a back story. By a Hmmwv and add $175 buck for the TM's. There lies the answers. And don't forget to ground the speedo cable. I'am out of here. CAM

The metal mount brackets should not be a problem as the studs of the gauges should be ground. One of the four # 58 ground leads MUST connect to each gauge. Verify that each #58 gauge lead has continuity to the engine block left rear head connection. Still need to know if voltage is present...

Tried everything... then they should be working??? Does truck start and run? YES, see below. NO, Bigger problem, but easy. The easiest one to get working is the voltmeter (if it's good). Truck in run position, external multi-meter to test and check for system positive battery voltage (22 -26...

Wait till winter and then will hear all about how the heater is cold after a 40 mile trip. While the TDM plays a connection role in the fan circuit, the fan run / cycle time are determined by the thermostatic switch in the crossover. Included in this is just how well your cooling system is...

How about a sticky notes on this subject. Would be a good place to reference and point new and seasoned owners to. Can't start, won't crank, use to start, wait light flashing, glow plugs working or not, smoke, now what? These problems common to Hmmwv (check spelling) and trying to answer...

I got a HUMMWV tee shirt that says "LIKE NOTHING ELSE" Have another HMMWV one that says 'Ready to Fight" It has holes in it. From a distant they look about the same, But I understand what you said. Darn spell checkers... CAM

That's how it's been for me. Keep things lined up and clean for a good seal. CAM

My 60 Amp Alternator Notes. 60 Amp alternator has two studs under the cover and a pigtail wire. It also has a grounding point on the case. Seems to be the most common set up ?? and sometime the wiring is a bit confusing. For simplicity... 60 Amp units, Ground is the ground bolt hole on top...

Your rake looks good from this angle. Are you trying to level it out? Not so sure that would be the ideal set up if you plan to load it up some or tow. What are you doing to change it ? With folding shovel under the seat, CAM

Helmet Top and Rihno = Pain in the butt. Every time you want to get to the ice chest, Ya got to crank the wrench. Reach in and grab two beers. One to open, one to close. I put my mud flaps on the front side of the bumper. didn't like the gap - fit-up either. No Problem, No funky look. Fly...
