Welcome!
When you are able post some pics of it. Look for any markings on the front and rear corners that may be decipherable as a former unit.
Ive seen multiple layers showing different units.
USMC trucks sometimes have a unit code on the rocker panels and tailgate.
Fuel tanks are 25 gallons
Cant find anything related to the 3220 kit. Just reference back to the 0290 kit page. I know I didnt install one
It seems like its for M996/M997 and a few other variants. Not the M998, though.
Installing the seat kit looks complicated in the instructions but if you only work on one step at...
I doubt it will last long on the underside of the body. Ive used that cheap stuff from home deeps on my M1009 under new rubber flooring/padding and it made a difference.
I would suggest putting it on the inside covering the hottest and most resonant areas of the floor and tunnel and then top...
Sounds like the way mine ran. Never stayed on long enough to get the temp down that far.
Running steady above 40 would get the temp up to the 220 mark and the fan would kick on for a minute or two then cut off before the temp gauge had a chance to move. After a lag of a minute or two, it would...
The noise....the ridiculous amount of fan noise...and the power loss is irritatingly noticeable in stop and go traffic.
You dont want to overcool the engine either. No matter the weather.
Viscous fan clutches are really the best overall solution if, like you say, you don't need the fording...
It would help to know which belt system you have...V-belts, or Serpentine.
The viscous clutch AND the fan need to be clockwise rotation for V-belts and Counterclockwise rotation for serpentine.
The fan is 19"
Have you considered retrofitting a conventional viscous fan clutch off of an H1?
Thats my plan if my OEM hydraulic ever cacked out.
I bought a NOS H1 clutch and a derale 19" blade that fits the shroud opening to be installed when the time comes
That's the main point of failure in my experience with speedometer cables.
Last one I did the angle adapter seized up and snapped the #25 stub shaft.
I Think that little shaft acts as a "fuse" in the cable drive.
Got a new piece(#25) and opened up the angle drive to clean and re-lube. Good...
I would at least inspect it to look for it being bent or boogered up, bad wires/connectors, and test that it switches continuity when you put the pedal to the floor.
Since its one of the components of the fan clutch activation system, you might as well check it and eliminate it as a cause. And...
Whats the generator output voltage at idle? When revved?
What are the individual batteries voltages when not running?
Is there any breaks in the wiring, or ground path that may be affected by the revving/torqueing of the engine?
Maybe P/S fluid pressure problem?
Just trying to think of out...
How did you check the tires for out of round?
I would do this...take it to a decent tire shop and have them try to balance the tires. When each one is on the balancer, you can ask to look at the whole wheel/tire assembly as you rotate it by hand on the true plane of the wheel flange. You will...
