@@Jay172967 call the guy. He helped me place mine over the phone. It’s just a single dude I believe but super helpful. Had mine for a bit now and works like a champ

@@michaelpandolfi9765 pull a plug or two if you wanna know for sure. Mine were all kinds of distorted. Looked like someone tried to weld on them. Also if you’re trying to check with a cheap multimeter you may need to adjust the setting way higher than normal bc they could be reading in the millions and not pick up on normal settings if box is bad. Ask me how I know 🤣

@@michaelpandolfi9765 the other box was stock from when I bought the hummer. It was sending constant voltage and frying the glow plugs.

This plus new glow plugs installed after did for me. The old plugs got burned out by bad factory box. You can test if old box is bad and sending constant 24v which burn out plugs in 1 cycle. This box has been solid

Thanks. All myself. Got the paint from a local auto paints supplier and bought the guns from harbor freight. Got the high end guns to make sure finish looked good..I just got rims and tires I’ll post a video soon

Looking forward to it! What paint and clear coat did you use?

I hate when they say put other stuff in a greasy smelly haversack. Try 3 days rations, you see fast there ain’t no room for “stuffers”

@@3b1d5c Exactly.

Countless upon countless reports of soldier having massive stains on their legs from the lousy food that was stuffed in their haversack

I usually carried 2 bags the main was my haversack and then I carried a muslin bag for other items. I was with the 1st Minnesota Co. A

His uniform is so wrong

@@whitechickencowwow please... explain I'm trying to get every piece of info on the civil war

Thank you! The classes were super stoked that I had some personalized videos for them to see and they found your video and the others very informative and got a better understanding on the uniform and equipment carried during the war. And a few got the dates for upcoming re-enactments, so they might see you in the near future.

It would be very sobering. Especially since at best a soldier could fire about 3 shots per minute so if this line of bayonets come at you they’re gonna be on you quick with little to do but fix bayonets yourself

Many times. And every time I would take my college buddies out in Gettysburg I’d always point out the hotel on the circle where the cast of the movie stayed

That’s a neat fact. I grew up less than 10 min from Gettysburg (about 40 min now) and have been hundreds of times and didn’t know that.

@@717Humvee I read that in a book titled "Gettysburg, The Long Encampment" by author Jack McLaughlin.

I’ll check it out when I get a chance

You’re pretty close. My understanding from readings and talking to reenactors/experts was that yes in the early days a decent amount of souther soldiers had blue as they had previously served in the federal army. However in battles such as Bull Run we also see Northern troops ie from Mass. show up wearing grey as well. This caused major confusion on the battlefield as you could imagine. The southern states decided to adopt grey and later butternut as it was 1 already being used by state militias 2 cheaper to dye and 3 able to be dyed with things like walnuts as even grey dye became scarce later in the war

Confederates would also wear whatever they could get their hands on later on..ie after the raid on Harpers Ferry thousands of federal uniforms were captured and attempted to be dyed to make them less blue

@717Humvee I heard that too If both sides wore same color it would be confusing Until the flag came in use

@@717Humvee Yea, I think in the deep south, maybe Forest or some other commander got upset that the captured coats were not dyed using the walnut dye. I kind of makes it a dark brown, not blue. I use it for furniture all the time.

Another reason they wore grey, was because grey was the color of local state militias, and served as symbolic of their struggle against the industrious North.

I’d say half are a real pain to take out. Before you replace the glow plugs check the voltage/amperage using a multimeter to make sure the start box isn’t bad or else you’ll be buying glow plugs 2 times if the box is bad. The glow plugs will def be the reason for the hard/non start in cold. It will start fine in temps about 50-60 ish without the plugs

Paint is different than a big hole smack dab in the middle of the dash if I ever need to change the start box out for something else 🤷‍♂️

How much did that box run if you don't mind. I've got 2-998s.

My invoice was $910 shipped. I think it’s 100 cheaper if you go with the version with the button on the box instead of the cord. He might cut you a deal if you buy 2 though

@@717Humvee thankyou!!!

@717Humvee you've done a hell of a job on your paint. Looks great. I didn't do as nice a job. But mine are driven off road mostly and are dirty all the time. Always fun to see someone else working on these

The 2 closest to the headlights are a pain in the ass. I use an extension on my socket and it made it easier. The two closest to the interior I go in through the doghouse

Idk at this point honestly. Prob just some cheap 147 grain. That’s what’s I normally plink with. Maybe blazer or Remington
