Dear Half-Mast,
Your article on pages 10-11 of
PS 698 (Jan 11) lists tire
pressures for load range D and load
range E tires used on HMMWVs.
You told us that this info is also
found in change 6 of TM 9-2320-
387-10 on Page 1-12.1. But I’m not
so sure the TM and
PS
information
match. Which is correct?
SSG P.S.I.
Note that the TM’s tire pressure tables
don’t
apply to HMMWVs with FRAG
kits applied. Use the HMMWV rollover SMART card for limits on those vehicles.
See the
PS
article at this link for more details:
Dear Sergeant P.S.I.,
Good eye! There was a little
confusion surrounding the
tire pressures because the TM
presentation left room for different
interpretations. But that’s been ±xed.
The next update will clearly connect
each HMMWV to the right tire
pressure and will show the latest tire
pressure information.
