    RWH just serviced it and fixed what needed to be fixed (and replaced what was missing), with the main thing being installing a new 6.5 TD (the old one developed a bad knock on the first test drive). I also had him install the new wheels and 40" tires that are shown in the picture above...

    Retired War Horses is in Brentwood, CA. He is very active on the HMMWV forum (and related Facebook groups), and as far as I can tell the most knowledgeable HMMWV guy there is. I had the truck shipped to him from Yermo, CA, where it was auctioned.

    Newbie Needs Advice on HMMWV

    Anti-theft measures?

    Is that a battery disconnect or a switch that opens up one of the wires on the starter dial? Edit: Never mind, just read the link. Sorry.

    Dome Light install location suggestions

    Do those seat belts attach to the back of the seat or do they go down to the floor?

    Anti-theft measures?

    Hello all -- I won the M1165a1 below at GP this week and am taking the opportunity before it arrives to pick up some parts. From the various forums and FB groups, it appears that there is a lot of junk out there, and so I was hoping to hear what parts/companies this group has had good experience...
