    M998 no power in the front wheels and driveshaft locked

    Spinning opposite each other when turning one tire manually is normal. It sounds like a transfer case problem. Have you tried disconnecting the front propellor (i.e. drive shaft)? If the T-case output yoke doesn't turn when the propellor is disconnected and engine running/in gear, the T-case...

    Authentic Side Mirrors

    Anybody know a source for Mirror Lite? They only list school bus distributors on their website. I’ll email them I suppose, if no one knows a good source. Bulldogger

    Nope, not as far as I've ever seen. BDGR

    Authentic Side Mirrors

    That part number turns up the same rounded corner ones. Does this mean that the square ones are particular to a single source/manufacturer? BDGR

    Authentic Side Mirrors

    I bought a $170 set of eBay mirrors last year and while they seem to be holding up I second complaints that they are difficult to keep positioned (no detent inside the mount to remember their position when bumped) and the mirror face is not perfectly flat so I get some fisheye around the edges...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Pretty slick, but how much did all that cost? Biggest advantage I can see is that the replacement flasher if you ever need one is easier to get and cheaper. Otherwise, it sure looks like more than the $40 for a military solid state replacement version. I do admire your work though, it's much...

    Tie rod end boots

    +1 hummer knowledge base. Also when stumped you might email/call Hummer Parts Guy. He's very knowedgable and just as helpful. His prices are high at times, but he only sells true OEM parts. I've spoken to him a few times. He's a one man show, so if you call don't hog his time! Bulldogger

    Persistent coolant drip

    Heater core hoses? The core itself? Mine seeps, and I need to replace it. I just HATE replacing heater cores. Other than the core, the other connections you can see to visually check (if I recall correctly). Failing that, it could be degradation of one of the visually-OK hoses at the...

    '86 M998 Humvee issue with headlights and turnsignals

    I second the advice to investigate all your wiring for both the turn signals and the headlights. Sure sounds like a short somewhere. Don't forget to look INSIDE the headlamp cavities, behind the LED headlights. There are connections there too. On my rig the connections inside the hood, the...

    New Engine

    Sounds like there is an interesting story here that you're depriving us of... But I'm replying mostly in case a good previously unknown lead is turned up. I need/want to repower later this year. The ANG really beat up my truck before I rescued her. Bulldogger

    Humvee antenna that fits the as 3900 base ?

    Understood. Some of those guys might have an open package, worth asking if no-one here can help. Macadoodle took care of me a few weeks ago. BDGR

    Humvee antenna that fits the as 3900 base ?

    In my experience the two halves are usually just marketed on eBay and other sites as AS-3900 antenna parts. My bottom half is marked ASSY A3018230-1, my top half I cannot find any markings. A google search shows the upper half is A3018230-2. Here is some detail from Valcom...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    You're not gonna leave us hanging are you Dan'l? Bad welds? Dissimilar metals? That makes me think of my first ship, USS Gunston Hall, LSD-44. She left initial construction with all the hotel steam piping (used for non critical heating and cooking) made of whatever 2" pipe the contractors...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I started with that in mind but my flasher was potted with ancient vinyl cement or some such. Hard as rock. I gave up and just whacked off the connector. Bulldogger

    Economical turn signal flasher repair option

    For HMMWV owners: I installed a civvy 24V solid state flasher to replace my military incandescent version. I didn’t want to buy the $50 military version so I adapted a Nartron 11613631 from theBay. I cut the plug off the old flasher and soldered the wires of the Nartron onto it so I could keep...
