    Ran into a currently in service 1-1/2 T CUCV PU at Lincoln Home today!

    70 out of 4:56 gears? Dang, talk about pushing a 6.2 to the point.

    Humvees Scraps

    If my understanding is correct, they have to be scrapped to the point that no parts can be reused. 'Purchaser must completely destroy material that will result in the destruction of the item to prevent reuse, recognition or reconstruction of the item to the satisfaction of the government...

    HMMWV Open Market Purchase Price - Not Auction

    A hunter will need a $50k+ rig and trailer to get it to his hunting place, so a side by side is the more reasonable choice for hunting AND will go places you would never attempt to get a HMMWV into.

    5 ton winch interchangeable

    It looks like it. The M939 series is a releif in the front frame cross member to clear the hydraulic motor.

    They tried to kick my truck out of the neighborhood!

    I know that in some states ALL trucks are licensed ass "Commercial" vehicles. I had an El Camino in Texas that was licensed that way. If that is the case in yours the EVERY 3/4 ton, many 1/2 ton and larger trucks excedes their 6500 lbs limit. Yes, you need to check with your DMV and the codes...

    M1101 voltage

    The bulbs can be replaced with 12v bulbs. Not sure of the conversion numbers, there is a chart out there I have seen before.

    Do HMMWVs / m998s pass emissions test?

    I have seen several 6.2s in HMMWVs that had emissions labels and some with a label stating they are exempt. The exempt label is one of the reasons they are being sold as "Off Road Use Onle."

    Tires & Shipping and more, Oh My!

    I personnally would get rid of those Michelins. They have a more aggressive tread pattern but have a weaker side wall than the Goodyears. Switch over to a full set of G177s and you will be golden. I have bought a lot of 9.00X20 NDTs from GL and of the 13 tires in the lot only one was junk(fork...

    Yes, I need to invest in chains, and NOT the Harbor Freight ones. That is one of the reasons for "Slow and Steady." My plans do include purchasing chains in the future. Fortunately I rarely tow with my 5 ton. How long and what grade chains are you using?

    M939 Winch operation

    If your cable is reeled in over the top of the winch it is correct. So your hydraulic lines at the winch are switched/backwards. I have dealt with 4 winch trucks this year. 3 had the winches cable spooled backwards and one had the hydraulic lines reversed. You have got to love military mechanics...
