Everyone,
I spent a few hours searching here & read a few threads. I also have the WO troubleshooting guide .PDF & did find what covers part of the issue but still wanted to share as there's something odd.
Been looking at a M1097R1 that has a 4spd (4l80E?) in it. When you put power to...
Everyone,
I know there are a few threads on this already. Have read through them & learned from them. Used that & have troubleshooted, but am still a but stumped. My situation is a little different, so I will try to consolidate what I have done as much as possible so that I can get some...
Everyone,
Finally got myself one of the new generation AMMPS MEP 1040 generators.
Is marked as a "parts" unit that didn't power or anything when slave cable was hooked up.
All I've done is look at it & get it unloaded. Took the batteries out & collected the loose stuff inside...
Everyone,
Took me a while, but I managed to find the random, oddball adapters needed to make this small kit all at a reasonable price so that it would make sense to offer it as a kit moving forward.
The price is $35 shipped.

Everyone,
Got myself a SEW. Seems a TM is non-existant for it. Especially this odd aluminum model that is between the original fiberglass one & the new SEW-NG that is now out.
It had most of what should have been in there as far as the major stuff, besides gas bottles.
The Miller 302...
Everyone,
I decided to start offering the covers for the MEP 802A & MEP 803A generators. Will have ones for the MEP 531A / 501A soon as well.

Everyone,
I have been selling this for a while on my eBay store & never shared it here. I did share the video I made of it when I installed the first one on my truck with the help of @Ronmar in finding the solution. With starting a little business, I wanted to put everything together in a...
Everyone,
I have various seal kits for the FMTV's available. I put them together since they didn't seem to be readily out there & I know people needed them.

Everyone,
I have a few kits I'm now offering for sale for the MEP 802A & 803A generators. I do not have my own web based store, so I am using eBay. Please follow the links to the items you might be interested in;

Everyone,
I realized, I never came here to share my S-788 shelter I got. Picked it up cheap so I couldn't pass it up. Figured it would be a fun side project if I end up keeping it, or making it into a nice shell, ready for someone to build out & sell it to fund some of the other projects I...
Everyone,
I FINALLY got a MEP 803A on a trailer for a good deal, so I am going to start one of my fix-up threads for it!
Overall, in good shape. Was listed as " not running " due to alternator being unbolted. A few minor things missing. Trailer is in great shape. Did a quick video...
As the title says, I FINALLY made a nice, boring video on how to completely go through a wheel valve assembly and rebuild it, what is needed, and some of the variations.
Hopefully it is helpful to some of you;
Everyone,
This is going to be one of my threads documenting my fix-ups! M149A2 this time.
I usually already have the item in my possession in had before making a thread & already started doing something, but in this case am doing it before in hopes I can get some input.
Tires and...
Everyone,
I normally keep my troubleshooting issues on one thread for one machine, but I searched a bunch, tried a bunch on my own, and have hit a dead end.
https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/mep-802a-fix-up-thread-3-0.212213/
The search function doesn't work well, so forgive me if...
Everyone,
Starting another thread to document to fix-up of another MEP 802A I just won from GovPlanet.
Think I got one of the best deals of the year on this one, but hopefully I'm not jinxing myself!
Put fuel in it and started it right up. Making power as it should. Two almost new...
Everyone,
Starting another thread to document to fix-up of another MEP 802A I just won from GovPlanet.
Got it for a good price, considering what they have been going for. The pictures were terrible, but I live close by & was picking up another MEP 802A a few week before that I knew was...
Everyone,
Got myself a H-120 Army Space heater this morning from the auction yard. Got it for a real good price so figured I'd get it while I was there for other things.
Has less than 3 hours on it.
Tires were horrible, but I had some to swap on at the house. Will do something better...
Everyone,
Didn't realize that there was a dedicated forum on here for trucks that have guns mounted on them!
Anyways, when I got my M1078, I always planned to get a gun mounted on it. After getting the truck running and working properly, I found an M66 and installed it;
Took a bit...
Everyone,
I thought I had it figured out, but I am second guessing myself and I am supposed to go pick the generator up tomorrow.
My goal is to use this for backup power at the two houses on my property. They are on separate panels of 240v but on the same meter.
I understand that the...
