Back cleaned the drain tube from the side of the block. Used safety wire, pipe cleaners and air. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Finished cleaning up the valley today. 80% done with flexible shop vac nozzle. The rest with simple green and a careful pressure wash. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep. I hear the IP has to be cold [emoji3063] else it may lock [emoji357] up with washing? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was able to get a vacuum hose nozzle into the valley and clean out a few lbs of diesel laden sand. Much more cleaning is needed but it’s a start. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I need to clean up the valley to remove an accumulation of sand and clear the drain. Also need to validate the IP and feed hoses are no longer leaking (hoses and IP lines were loose). Q: Access is really limited even with the intake tube removed. What’s the best way to gain access...

Wow, the 400A is a beast. Crane/hoist needed indeed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Replaced all LH bank injector return lines. Found the first hose from the return hard line to the #1 injector was loose. Whomever installed it missed getting the retaining clip over the injector return fitting. Of note, on the ECV with 200A alternator access is a bear [emoji199] to #1. I came...

Closing the thread. Had to loosen differential mounts from the top and move the diff backwards to optimize clearance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah my earpro is only rated for 30db yet I still hear them clank [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Teardrop shackle noise dampening with duct tape. Insulates narrow end of shackle inside the mount. Works great. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Torqued front subframe. Front rear most bracket was loose on frame. Enough deflection to show during steering and cause a noticeable click. Latter feels resolved now and all other new / rebuilt steering components validated good & tight. Checked torque on all control arms and shocks for good...

Enhanced string method sets parallel from center of hubs. Essentially a square box [emoji403] Thrust is controlled by even toe on each tire relative to square box. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Rear toe alignment using string method. Really fun and effective for a low buck correction. Used greased fiber board for slip plates. LR was almost 2” toe out, RR was 1”. Specs must have been a lot different on the 1151 with 1500+ lbs of armor pre demil. Set total rear toe out about 1/8” as I...

Scored a pair at auction but does not include buckets. What bucket do I need or gut the composite bucket to mount? Looking for TM coverage as well. Truck-lite 07240 https://www.truck-lite.com/media/wysiwyg/TL_Military_Brochure.pdf Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Geared hub output seal. So easy I replace every time I get into a hub now. Also replaced input seal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Machined steel plate over hub face. The face area has a machined section with four holes for the recovery bracket. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Rear camber alignment correction. LR was at +2.3 +/-0.1 Took out all (3) thick shims for a -1.5 correction per the TM. Actual correction measured closer to -1.9. This job is a bear [emoji199] on the ECV/REV trucks. Had to remove half shaft to get enough working room on the bolts of the rear...

Potentially however the frame bolt pattern is different. The frame would have to be reworked along with different steering linkage parts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Standard retainers can be drilled to the ECV/REV pattern if you do not mind a few extra holes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Curious if any forum members have actually used urethane control arms on the HMMWV. I’ve used them in other applications with no issues. The 1151 I’m working on needs new bushings.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
