I put my MEP802 into the bed of the M998 and strapped it down. Now I have portable power.
I put a thick rubber stall mat underneath it with the intent of protecting the aluminum HMMWV bed from the genset skids, and I'm just blown away at how much quieter it makes the genset.

Specifically, it rubs up front at full turn on factory 5ton combat rims. HEMTT rims resolve this.
Bed contact can occur as well, under extreme articulation.

I've got some LMTV rims and one 100% tread 395. I've got a buddy that might have more 395s. I'll check with him.
