    M998 alternator wiring help

    You can just read it also. Typically it has a part number and a description of the alt. I am spit balling but I think you have a 100amp and using a 200 amp install kit. Main bracket I think is different. You would have to dig in the tm to see what are the correct pieces/mounting etc and wiring...

    M998 alternator wiring help

    In your pics right under the regulator, there is a black data plate curved on the alt body. Can you snap that?

    M998 alternator wiring help

    See if the alt has a part number? It just looks different to me but could be the picture. I saw a reference online to a single volt 200amp unit but have never seen one.

    LOUISIANA PROPOSED NEW LAW : HB 549 Provides for Military Surplus Motor Vehicles

    Kendalrio did one within the last year on his m923 and someone else here had posted on a successful vin registration. They are probably confusing the vin inspection which is required for the stencil. State police or any post certified officer can do it. I never had a problem getting one done...

    LOUISIANA PROPOSED NEW LAW : HB 549 Provides for Military Surplus Motor Vehicles

    Vin stencil is the cheapest as a lifetime registration. Military plate uses a sticker like others and needs to be renewed. Farm plate might be also cheaper. I have not done that. If you do the vin or military plate. I would go to Baton Rouge special and prestige plate unit. They are not busy...

    LOUISIANA PROPOSED NEW LAW : HB 549 Provides for Military Surplus Motor Vehicles

    Which way do you want to go? They are still doing vin or the new plate? What kind of truck? Where are you?

    M101A2 trailered home from auction. This is why.

    How is the spacing with the hmmwv rims on it? Or does it have the drop axle of an a3?

    Crossover pipe repair piece? M1097

    The originals are subject to rust/rot. I had to replace mine. Flange and pipe broke off on both ends. There is a revision in the design for newer ones. My new one is marked REV A. I suspect the metal content is different. 86humv informed us in another thread there is a galvanized and stainless...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    That is not a good sign. Change oil right away. What is the level on the dipstick? Typically fuel pumps dumping into oil will read high and have strong odor.

    GovPlanet Humvee Arrival and Inspection

    If it is a gearwrench, they don't want it back for a warranty exchange. Just fill out a form online, take a picture ( I would flip it over ;-) ) and they will send you a new one and tell you to environmentally friendly dispose of the other one. They also upgraded me from a 72 tooth to a 92 tooth...

    Any real parts store will also have them. Just make sure to verify the threads as most are now metric.

    M149a1 restoration project for a local fire department

    My m107 had the old big wheel and the whole assembly was siezed up solid. Fused like it had been underwater a few decades... Timntrucks was kind enough to heat it up and beat it off. I replaced with the newer crank double wheel like yours. It has a grease fitting so give it occasional love😎

    Interesting as I did not realize it was below sea level. I thought only south Louisiana lived under the sea 🤗

    Winch and weight forward of the front axle

    I added to my m998 a front milemarker winch plus a undercarriage protection. It already had a brush guard. I also added front armour grill and hood shield. I actually think it rides better with the weight on the stock m998 springs with baja tires at 35psi. I do not plan on changing to m1038...

    Special Forces ATV trailers

    GP in Mobile, AL just sold 2 Special Forces 2014 Polaris atv trailers for a wopping $3700 & $4200. I had bookmarked and watched them. I don't think they have ever been offered surplus.

    Trailer tire question

    Yes sir. That tire with new radial tube should fit. The oe tube has a bent valve that might not be on the civy tube but should be enough room to get a tire chuck on it. The boot is the flap.

    Trailer tire question

    You have a much older m101a1 if 900x16 5 lug. Shops are finicky on working on tube type tires on lock rings. You do not have a split rim. Whole different critter. If you can find a tire shop typically farm or hd. Any 16 inch tire will work with a corresponding new tube. Do not try to reuse the...

    400amp to 200amp swap

    You need Mounting brackets as they are different. The 200 amp install kit are all over ebay. They typically come with wiring also. I suspect battery cables are the same as 400 but regulator harness might be different as a different plug possibly ? but I am not familiar with 400amp set up. I...
