ok... here is a previously undisclosed factor: Due to age and injuries suffered in 2 motorcycle accidents I have an incredible hard time handling the weight of a typical Humvee tire and I definitely want to be autonomous when it comes to change tires (especially in the Florida Everglades where...

Does anyone have any comments/recommendations on these rims/tires: Tire: Cooper Discoverer STT Pro Mud Terrain LT37X13.50R17 121Q E Light Truck Tire Link: https://www.walmart.com/ip/seot/224157865?listRegistryId=c62c9757-91e5-4eef-9369-b9f62781a665&listRegistryType=WL Rim: Black Rhino...

Thanks Coug but I want to get out from the "16.5" deal if I change the rim I might as well go to a 17" that way I have a lot more choice when it comes to tires.

ok... maybe I emphasized the weight/fuel consumption in a way that misled some people: The issue here is SAFETY, my tire exploded on the expressway and that is what triggered the initiative of changing all my tires NOT fuel consumption. Now... if in the process of upgrading tires, I can also...

"Rude"....???? "Aggressive" Am I missing something...? what part of my posts were rude or aggressive....? Sarcastic maybe.... Anyway if anyone got insulted or touched in any negative way by what I wrote: APOLOGIES !

Can you elaborate....?

ohh really.....? my bad dude.... i thought this was like a Mini Cooper and I could get 30-40 mpg. c'mon man do you truly think I was planing on getting anything better than 10 mpg...??? I know what I was getting into and I still am very aware of it but you tell me if there is anything wrong with...

Dude... I totally get it, for some of you all of the above doesn't really matter, for me I gave up my car my bicycle and my scooter to get a Humvee and now it's all I have, I go to work with it and to do groceries and church and kids to school with it everyday, to me getting better mileage and...

Think about this... the stock tires on a Humvee are about 180 lbs, if you upgrade to an alloy rim and a lighter tire (not run flat) you can bring that weight down to where you shave about 300 lbs of rotating mas on your truck, now... multiply that X 8.4 that is the equivalent of about 2,500 lbs...

Ohh yeah.... the problem has been addressed: Replaced alternator, unfortunately I ended up with a 200A from a 400A one but it seems to be working for now (I have only had it since Saturday) but the problem remains, you can always find you batteries depleted because you left lights...

Thank you sir but I have realized I can make my "Jump Start" harness completely outside of the slave connector for a lot less money, unfortunately I do not have 100 spare bucks for one of those connectors. No... I actually bought me this box...

Yeah... maybe this is the best suggestion, I just have to find a NATO SLAVE connector on eBay...? Is this what is called....? are there better options beside eBay...?

but the turret theory makes sense, the question remains though.... could I use that to jump start...?

I sure did not think of that harness being for accessories due to the gauge of the wire (4-6 AWG) which would be a heavy overkil for just about

Yeah.... I left it there for a while and then repeated the whole procedure from scratch and all I got was the 12 (three times)

I found what looks to be a "Gray" Anderson (120 or 175 A) connector tucked under the front passenger seat (but accessible only from rear passenger seat) so I measured if there was any voltage across the pins and I measured 24.15VDC, (no switches on) then I measured the battery voltage...

I got around testing the transmission to retreive codes and all I get is a 1-2 which if I understand correctly just confirms that yo are in "code diagnostics" mode. Does this mean that nothing is wrong with the transmission....? If the "Torque Converter" is faulty or acting up would any code...

ohhh... al this brings out another point in this Humvee: the plugs warm light never cam on from the beginning so I wait about 20 seconds every time I want to turn the engine on (what a drag) I must say though.... I can see it flicking sometimes for a fraction of a second (really really quick)...

Ohhh yes.... "things" are coming together, now I just need to know how to "Disconnect the "Glow Plug Controller" (step 2)
