    HMMWV just delivered. Do I try and start after fresh fuel, oil and filters?

    Whatever you do, make sure you have your gopro or cellphone video running so you can post a video on youtube and link it here. I purchased a non runner once...and it is my best purchase to date! (bad bendix on the starter)

    HMMWV prices are sure coming up

    I really like the 1165a1…and apparently I am not alone. That is crazy money. I about fell out of my chair…. I think the non runners are still a reasonable option. No way it’s gonna take 20 plus k to get one running, painted, etc.

    700R4 transmission in a HMMWV

    Do both. Make sure you have all the slack out of your throttle cable first, when you are at full throttle on the floor you want full throttle on the injector pump. Once that is done you can adjust the TV cable at the bracket. Just make sure you have zero pull on the TV at idle and full TV at...

    Two 6.2s much different performance.

    Make sure you are not losing throttle movement through loose linkages/cable stretch from the foot pedal to the injection pump. Floor insulation can also limit movement. I have seen humvees that when the pedal was to the floor, the injection pump was less than 65% throttle. Also make sure...

    Soda blast the rattle can paint off. Use a cheap harbor freight blaster. Amazing results.

    M998 Hard Top Hatch not lining up with pins?

    your fenders may be out of spec for that setup. You may have to compress them together a bit to get a good fit. Measure the width of the rear fenders from outside to outside (overall width) and post the results. Also take some pics so we can see the outside of the fenders. Some pics with the...

    Best mechanical transfer case with 2WD option for HMMWV

    the 6.2 and 6.5 HMMWV with a TH400 already has a bracket that can be used for the TV cable. Either square out the hole on the existing bracket or round out the housing on the TV cable.

    Will a OEM H1 Brush Guard Fit a HMMWV?

    Kascar had then when I needed them a few years ago.

    Will a OEM H1 Brush Guard Fit a HMMWV?

    your are missing both brackets for that style of brush guard. What you are trying to mount to in your first pic is the d ring mounts. You will need to relocate your d ring mounts when you get the correct mounts for your brush guard.
