Windshield Mirror
Adhesive NSN
Heat, cold and vibration can cause a
windshield’s
rearview
mirror
to
fall
off. Stick it back on with some tough
adhesive. NSN 8040-00-634-7121 gets a
1-qt can. Use a DD Form 1348-6 to order.
In the REMARKS block show “NSN not on
the AMDF”.”
M113A2, M1068 Heater Kit Fittings
Need some new parts for the heater kit on your M113A2 personnel carrier or M1068
command post carrier? Then you need to know about these NSN changes to Fig 325 of
TM 9-2350-261-24P (Aug 05).
Item 32:
Use NSN 4730-00-187-0843 (PN AS5194-0602, CAGE
81343) to order a new straight adapter. It replaces pipe nipple, NSN 4730-01-134-6559.
Item 42:
Use NSN 4730-01-571-8542 (PN SAE J514 6-6 070221CZ, CAGE 81343) for a new
tube elbow. It replaces NSN 4730-01-494-0280, which is a terminal item.
Cold Weather Operations
Aviators, even though your -10 TMs give you cold
weather information, it may not be enough. You
can find additional cold weather info in FM 3-04.203,
Fundamentals of Flight
(May 07). This FM supercedes
FM 1-203,
Fundamentals of Flight
(03 Oct 88), TC 1-201,
Tactical Flight Procedures
(Jan 84), and TC 1-204,
Night
Flight Techniques and Procedures
(Dec 87).
Sidewalk Salt
With winter just around the corner, it’s time to stock up on sidewalk salt to melt slippery
snow and ice. NSN 6810-00-227-0437 brings an 80-lb bag.
Ice Scraper and Chipper
Be
ready
for
winter
by
ordering
a
windshield ice scraper with NSN 7920-
01-383-8023. The scraper comes with a
plastic bristle brush on one end. To help
keep walkways clear, order a sidewalk ice
chipper with NSN 5110-00-329-3299. The
chipper has a 6
5
/
8
-in wide steel blade and
a 55- to 65-in long ash handle.
Snow Shovel NSN
When those deep snow drifts start piling up, you’ll need some way to dig yourself out.
Be prepared with a snow shovel, NSN 5120-00-288-6529. The shovel has a 48-in long
handle and a 24-in wide blade. You provide the muscle!
HMMWV Oil Cooler
Relief Valve Kit Update
TACOM SOUM 10-007 tells you to order and install
oil cooler relief valve retrofit kits for all HMMWVs
with serial numbers 300000 and above. We told
you the same thing in our article on Pages 12-13
of PS 692 (Jul 10). Now, here’s an update from the
truck headshed: HMMWVs starting with serial
number 333942 have the oil cooler relief valve
kit installed at the factory. So there’s no need to
order and install the kit on these HMMWVs.
M1-Series Tank Drain
Valve Handle
To get a red knob for the drain valve
handle inside the M1-series tanks,
use NSN 5355-01-554-9341. The knob
is located on the right side of the
driver’s seat.
This NSN replaces the one shown as
Item 23 of Fig 282 in TM 9-2350-264-
24P-1 (w/Ch 5 Mar 03). The NSN shown
in the TM gets the wrong part.
M871/A1 Trailer Rear Suspension Cracks
Overloading, distributing loads poorly, or abusing your M871 or M871A1 trailers could
lead to cracking. If your trailer has cracks or separations in its rear suspension system,
it’s NMC! But don’t repair these cracks. Just turn in unserviceable trailers to DRMO and
order a replacement, if authorized by your unit’s TOE. See TACOM SOUM 10-017 online
