I also have an old 50amp craftsman stick welder I got at a yard sale for $10.

Flux core wire

Thank you! Just bought an assortment pack from TheAmazon.

I actually just bought a cheap HF 125amp welder. Should I grind off the paint and just start building up the puddle over the hole? Would it be better to cut off the shank of a bolt in it and basically weld it in place as a filler material? The holes are about 3/8” diameter, and my...

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fill four holes that were drilled completely through (daylight shining through) the roof of an m1009 above the driver's head? I am going to paint it next week. A fire department mounted lights previously. Also, what do you fill the holes in the...

Final update: I found a switch that works. I got a $12.99 generic “Universal 3 Wire Engine Starter Switch for Car, Motorcycle, Tractor, Forklift, Truck, Scooter, Trailer,...l from the_amazon, and it works great. The switch itself is very light weight and feels cheap, but I like the key better...

So the quote from Maaco was $450 on the phone. When I got there he said he had to add $150 for extra sanding. Next thing you know, he disappears and has his associate read me the quote of $1100 before tax. I’ll be looking elsewhere.

I bought 2 gallons of 383 green CGI paint from Rapco to paint the humvee myself, but I changed my mind about painting it myself. Maaco said they could do it for $450. He said he’d have to ask a manager about using my paint, but ensured me they use Sherwin Williams and can match the color...

Update: I installed a Kascar auxillary grounding harness, and nothing changed.

Yes, it starts when I put the factory switch back on. It does not start with the keyed ignitions. Thank you!

I have tried three different keyed ignitions on the HMMWV, and none of them have worked correctly. The first one I got from Federal military parts. I used a multi-meter and made sure the wires from the vehicle were labeled correctly (Battery, Ground, and Ignition). I wired them to the new...

Is there a trouble shooting section in the TM for the heater fan/blower, and if so could you tell me which manual and page number? I've been searching the TM's as well as the forums, and can't find it. When I toggle the heater fan switch to high or low nothing happens. I suspect it is a...

Has anyone bought or seen up close the Midwest Military Equipment Aluminum Hard Door kit for $2800? http://midwestmilitaryequipment.com/new-hummer-h1-military-998-humvee-hmmwv-aluminum-hard-door-kit-set-of-4/ I'm considering buying hard doors, I just don't know if these are worth the money...

I just called another location of SW and they said they can't sell CARC without a military contract. So, its making GCI at $40/gal look like the next best way to go. Is the GCI (34094 CARC substitute) from Rapco a poor substitute? Thanks!

Is the color Green 383? The SW Industrial Coatings guy said it needed a catalyst (hardener) mixed 2 to 1. Do you all use a hardener? Hardener is $204/gal and paint is $198/gal plus need to FedEx ship it.

I just called Sherwin Williams Automotive Finishes, and they said they've never heard of CARC paint. Is there a product number and color code to ask for? Thanks!

Thanks. which specific color did you use, and did you have to mix the paint with thinner or hardener? Was one coat enough, and did you prime it first?

How much paint should I buy to paint a humvee inside and out? Just doing solid green with black bumpers, etc. Rapcoparts.com has GCI for $40/gal. Which green color is recommended: CARC substitute or current issue lusterless Olive Drab, etc. ?

Found NOS for $40 using NSN. Tried to delete post. thanks
