    M1097A1 Steering Gear Box

    Call me old school, but I prefer to run a pitman arm nut by hand via wrench or socket as I am paranoid the impact hits can cause seal problems over time. I have no scientific or real world failure to back that up but just my feeling and seeing how little that rubber lip is can cause problems...

    M1097A1 Steering Gear Box

    Have you used a pitman arm puller ? Not a bearing puller. Pitman arm jaws are fixed. Autozone and oreilly have them in their loaner tools. Soak the splines with pb blaster. Lisle and Otc make hd ones also.

    M1082 Spring brake valve leaking air...is it rebuildable

    Is it a haldex valve? If so, look up the part number on their website and typically will list a rebuild kit if available. Possibly bendix also might be available.

    GovPlanet Humvee Arrival and Inspection

    My recommendation is to use double walled weathered, aero, gates etc hose rated for oil cooler from a napa or real parts store. Retail Parts store will sell you a universal fuel hose and tell ya it will work....

    Welcome "Gertrude" or "Dirty Gerty"

    Looks like a very cool project. Was it in the Ms Guard at Camp Shelby? The winch plate looks off a hmmwv. Is it hydraulic? Hope Jeff is doing well.

    Tubes and flaps for 1100r16 Michelin tires

    My opinion is stretching the tube is ify and in the day when I ran Western auto stores, I would not install bias tubes in place of radial (other was ok) or install the wrong size tube. A farm radial tube might be ok but not sure what speed rating it is but the m37 is not an indy roadster either.

    Tubes and flaps for 1100r16 Michelin tires

    I would ask militarytires.ca as they sell the tires and might be able to point you in the right direction as some Canadian tactical vehicles use them or used them recently.

    24v power source at alternator for IBIS Light bar?

    You can pull up to 30amp on a pulse box lead and it will be on a circuit breaker or fuse can be used in place of breaker.
