    HMMWV M998 presentation across the Atlantic.

    Yes, in the desert operations during the wars , some of the stock blackout lights were replaced with the red face round lights used on armor. It does fit just needs a little modification on the washer plate holding it to the fiberglass hood. Many of the special forces trucks did this. Check...

    HMMWV M998 presentation across the Atlantic.

    That is definitely a "field" modification and not stock/oe. 22= LIGHT SWITCH (S) TO SERVICE STOP LAMP The military uses generic codes on the wiring across most platforms. Look at this post: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/military-wire-id-tag-master-code-list.163769/ I don't have my...

    HMMWV M998 presentation across the Atlantic.

    That is the light that 86humv referenced. It is supposed to be used on the dashboard for gauges. Not sure why it is there ? See if the switch and indicator on the dash turn it on? What color is the light?

    Super Lug 9x16 tires

    They are belted bias old school tires not modern radials. Would not recommend for that application. I use them for m101 trailers with no issue. I know they need tubes with the old lock ring rims but not sure if they are a tubeless tire for other applications. Might need to verify specs.

    Ongoing Log Of My 1987 HMMWV

    I would recommend doing the airlift, extension , and tire carrier at the same time. If you want more challenge do the reinforcement and mud flaps and be done with it😀 Not impossible but just have a good supply of bolts nuts, and washers handy. Rig looking good Doc 🤠

    Caiman Steel Wheel valve thread size?

    I will need to take a picture but not sure if it will be visible as I screwed the hubcap protector covers back on after I aired them up. Coming straight out of the rim maybe 1 inch. It might not be threaded all the way as that makes sense why nothing would grab it but it does feel like G said...

    Why remove runflats?

    Many thoughts on this. Some do not like the added weight and inertia on the wheels. They tend to ride rough the first few miles after sitting up but then even out. I personally have seen too many trucks on the interstate on their side from box trucks to semi. Don't know the causes but some had...

    Caiman Steel Wheel valve thread size?

    I have some black Camian steel wheels with runflats & goodyears on my 5 ton m923. They were brand new and surplused in the GL days at Ft. Polk. I went to air /check them and some were in need of air. I found it a bear to hold the air chuck against the stems and to get air pressure readings off...

    Ebay Parts Question

    https://www.bretonindustries.com/breton-military-store/ That is a shame as they were reasonable but I can see the difficulty of collecting sales tax and remitting to all the locations is not worth the small retail business they do in comparison to the Military and gov't orders. I blame the...

    Ebay Parts Question

    Check prices against buying directly from breton. Many Ebay sellers are just reselling and marking up.

    M101 Trailer Replacement Shocks

    The 37114 has the correct bushing style that OE uses. All specs can be seen here: http://www.monroe.com/en-US/e-catalog/37114/ It looks to me that Monroe moved this shock from the monroe matic mid level line to their premium line and of course more $ as they are now very proud of it. :-(

    M101A2 Spare Tire Mount/Carrier

    I simply have mine standing upright in the back facing the side inbetween the wheel well and back with a ratchet strap to the side and through the tire. Takes up minimal space. Others have used tire winch mounts from pick ups or suv's and made a frame underneath to hold it under the bed and...

    Shifter Box Rivet Nut Installation Help

    Do you wire it via a manual switch or another way? I know in my state and others to pass inspection, it has to come on when in "reverse"

    HMMWV M998 presentation across the Atlantic.

    That is the newer style of turn signal switch that can be used with the newer black bigger steering wheel that has a cancel ring underneath to turn blinker off automatically after turn is complete. I think you still have the old style wheel. The newer one is worth the upgrade if you can find it...

    Shifter Box Rivet Nut Installation Help

    Another thread on here that suggested using a neutral safety switch for a Massey fergeuson farm tractor as it had the correct oddball threads. I bought one off ebay for $15. Had not installed it yet but looks like it will work perfectly. Just makeing my own wiring harness
