and many of the area Military Reserve Units are not participating in TAFDA.

nice truck. those cummins are awfully loud in the video. im in the process of swapping my 6.2 and 380l trans. looking for a quieter siesel engine replacement. i have already used a noise dampener inside and still give me a ringing in my ear after an hour drive.
nice pics. im also in a process of swapping my drive train. im looking for a quiter diesel engine to replace my noisy 6.2. let me know if the lineX works to quiet the cabin from engine noise.
does anybody here knows if humvee wheels can be align like the regular cars? i found out that im begining to have an uneven lost tread on my right front tire.
i got the balancing fixed by taking it to the commercial truck balancing shop. it stopped the shaking at low speed.
There is still time to win a chance to fly in a vintage military aircraft over the 2012 Armed Forces Day Parade. Just got word from the Western Museum of Flight that they will be keeping the donations open until noon on Thursday. The winners will be drawn and announced on Thursday afternoon...
have that problem all the time on mine and mostly its a grounding problem. aluminum with the harness wire is not a good conductor combination plus combined with dirt and vibration all the time. i run a direct wiring all the time on mine on groundings.

get a turboed 6.2 from diesel depot. a lot cheaper than a 6.5 turbo with almost the same power and quiter and will fit right in without any modification to your trans and drive train. thats if you are in a tight budget. but if you got a lot of money go for a complete drive train swap with a 4bt...
because the civilian hummer H1 doesnt have the MILSPEC standard that they built for the military. -deep water fording, water proof electrical wiring, CARC paint, HD brake system transfer case and of course bulletproof if you live in a bad area.:D it will cost you more to convert
how were you able to get a perfect humvee frame or how did you weld it back perfectly. ive seen how the DLA contractor demiled or cut this things like a crisscross same as the other DOD demiled items, weapons.? and the question goes back to how were you able to tittle them if you were able to...
what the Chief said is true. the only legal humvees ones that the public can own are the one that got auctioned of by the usmc during the 90s before the DOD classified the humvees to be demiled item. and they are getting more expensive whenever somebody decide to resell them.
below are the pics...
THANKS for the info! also i been having a shaking and wobbling problem with my 12 bolt single run flats since those clip on balancer balancing shop put on the side of the rimsfell off, is there another way of balancing it besides putting sand or airsoft pellets inside. if i take out the...
help! do i need a special sealing liquid or gel besides a ratchet and pry bar for this 2 piece wheel with single run flats /bead lock? i did not notice that i have a busted wheel till i got home after offroading, thanks to the run flat. BUT after replacing the old tire on this 2 piece wheel...
what kind of engine are you gonna hook it up with. i got a cummins 4Bt. i converted everything to 12 volts when i upgrade. you have to convert your brakes too or you ganna be changing brake pads all the time.
Tip for you guys, its better to take it to the experts that have done this before. its not easy, too many parts to take apart to resurface rotors. the original milspec military brake pads cost more.
the cheaper H1 civilian brake pads has 2 kinds of weight specification. dont know which one to...
