    NSN's for vic-1 parts

    The MX-7777 part is proving tricky, I get a hit on an NSN but it lists a thermistor mount. Have attached the pic. Do you know what your part looks like? A thermistor is certainly not a suppressor but the descriptions can sometimes go screwy with the system. Cheers Poccur :)

    what does this fit?

    A search on that NSN gives a number of vendors. Oshkosh is one but also Accuride. It lists Accuride part number 29729. Accuride list is as an active part number, lifted the attached from their catalog. Have not linked it to a vehicle but it does give more info on the item. Cheers Poccur :)

    preserving tires

    Tires The two biggest enemies of tires are UV and ozone. To combat these they add carbon black and wax to the rubber. The carbon black changes the UV into heat and dissapates it into the tire but once the carbon black is gone, it is gone. This is what causes a tire to turn grey, as the carbon...

    NATO slave connector cap needed...

    Here we go, try these people... AB Connectors www.ttabconnectors.com Have attached their brief catalog on NATO connectors and I am sure an email will free up the exact part you need. The catalog has one but I cannot be sure the photo is the part number they are listing. If it is then it is not...

    NATO slave connector cap needed...

    The normal push on cap is NSN 5340010590114. That gets you the push on cap and the wee bit of green string to attach it with. It shows Oshkosh Corp sell it under part number 3HR659 AM General sell it under part number 11675004 Not sure if that really helps. I had another manufacturer I found...

    Gas burning to trash burning generators

    My understanding is the trash burners will use trash mostly from mess halls. The plastics are seperated out and simmered to make propane and methane, the organics are fermented to make ethanol. The gas and ethanol is used to power the engine that turns the alternator. I am sure they will have...

    Military trailer to civilian vehicle cable

    I should probably include the caveat that this works on the trailers currently used with the HMMWV but I see no reason why the Military would have different wiring for each vehicle.... Cheers Poccur :)

    Military trailer to civilian vehicle cable

    Mama always said you make more friends with a gift that you will by kind words alone so.... I have a diagram for hooking your Mil trailer to your civilian vehicle. Sure the trailer is 24vdc and your civilian vehicle is 12vdc but the lights will work (just a bit dimmer) and it is much easier to...

    Homemade load test for 3 kw gen set

    How can you tell if they are out of phase? Do you have an oscilloscope? Not trying to be flippant but most of the stuff in your house is single phase and won't care about the phases difference hot-to-hot so long as there is 120v phase to neutral. If you plan to use it as an emergency unit then...

    Genset ground rod

    I second what cranetruck says about driving at an angle. Another trick is to position the grounding rod under the drip from the air conditioner (if using one). Wet ground has good conductivity and the rods pull out easily when it is time to go home. Another trick is to not drive the rods but...

    Who here runs their deuce on JP-8/Contaminated jet fuel?

    I know I am new here so I have no wish to disagree but.... :) JP-8 is not Jet A, the specifications are different: Jet A and Jet A-1 (1950's -present) are the two fuels used by the commercial airlines and both fuels have a 100 deg F (Min.) flash point temperature for safety reasons. Jet A has...
