To reinforce the above statement, I did a couple FOIA requests for this info and all I got was whats there. I also contacted the company who purchased the original manufacturer. They also had nothing. As a hail Mary i found an organization "Floating Doctors" that had one on eBay to see if...
An update on this issue...
- I removed the covers from the rear geared wheel assemblies and all were fine, teeth look great, checked the splines, all good and no metal at all.
- removed the cover from the diff and everything there looked great.
- Greased the drivelines and u-joints in case they...
Im in the movie prop business, been at it for 10+ years. Getting g 550->650 a day is the normal rate for a hmmwv. 5tons or specialty builds can get closer to 850 a day. Im my experience, no-one is gonna pay you 1000 a day unless the unit is very very special. Movie car companies are...
We've been driving this truck for a while and no real issues. We started getting popping on turning, but recently its also started popping rapidly when accelerating forward and backwards. I replaced all 4 axles with new ones and it still pops. Its a rather fast pop also, sounds like its in...
Thanks for everyones input, I did the following chart to put in my maintenance records.. I know it seem trivial, but I tend to do documentation so its useful for someone with limited knowledge of the subject.
Does this look correct? Terminology? anything else I should add?
I have several shafts that are new but can't find a number on them at all. Is there charts that would help to identify the vehicle variant that they will fit? Something like this would be very helpful when parts hunting at swap meets and shows..
Something like:
- Length: (measure by...

That's what I needed thanks..
And yes did the ste jump did not turn the starter
Ended up replacing the starter as it looked terrible, solenoid was bad but still didn't crank with new one.
So before I got too far down wanted to be sure there wasn't some other kind of safety with an A2 that's...
yea im doing that, followed the path of voltage through the Neut Safety switch, did cont checks through the plug at the controller to the solenoid wire on the starter cable 74A, im at the point where i need to remove cable 2A from the generator and try to start to single out the controller box...
I have a new to me 1097A2 that wont turn over... I going through the normal check the neutral safety switch etc, but in looking for more detailed troubleshooting info, im seeing lots of references to STE/ICE procedures.. The A0/A1 had the AM GENERAL Component and testing book with listed as the...
Update on this...
Spent some time trying to isolate this.. looked very closely at the front driveshafts and nothing is moving out of place that is noticeable.
The tires are not low at all.
I put it in low and the thump got **REALLY** bad.
I still can't see anything obvious at all. We...
Ok got it resolved... My first mistake was the assumption that a chicom manufactured box would be wired correctly. I looked over most of it, but missed this part.
They had the line screws jumped to the load screws.. like you would do to a normal plug with the join tab removed.. removed the...
