    What would be the best year to register my truck in the SF97?

    I was in the same boat. Went with a little older to get that 20 year mark for historic plates.

    HMMWV replacement tires

    I called them and they are all mt/r tires from 2012 ish era. Im guessing they got all the stock the military decided to throw out.

    HMMWV replacement tires

    Background: New hmmwv owner, m1123 from yermo. 2009 rebuild. Tires are 37x12.5r16.5lt MT (not MT/R) date codes are 2006…. So these bad boys gotta go. They have some cracks and I don’t want a blow out. Im looking at the most cost effective set of tires that could be directly mounted on the...

    Can someone confirm soft top measurements

    I have. Hence why I posted this thread. The measurements are off to where the rails aren’t even close. I didn’t even get to testing the bows because.... the rails wouldn’t fit. Nothing is ever perfect, but these rails are outside the parameter of acceptable.

    Can someone confirm soft top measurements

    If anyone else is having problems, call SECO. Despite this inconvenience, they handle their customers well. No bad blood.

    Can someone confirm soft top measurements

    Second this. They are not marked, they are clearly aftermarket. My concern loosening up the windshield / b pillar to try and make everything fit, is going to throw everything else out of alignment. I have to call SECO today again and see what we can agree on.

    Can someone confirm soft top measurements

    You’re gonna have the same prob as me I’m guessing. Your b pillar notch is off just like mine.

    Can someone confirm soft top measurements

    I’m willing to bet what you have matches me because I now have 2 from him that are the same (but wrong). If you paid anything near what I paid, you might wanna try to install your rails ASAP cause if multiple of us are seeing the same thing it makes me sound less crazy.

    Can someone confirm soft top measurements

    I bought a 4 man kit from SECO parts and I’ve received a bad passenger side rail twice now. First, Has anyone had this experience? Second, Can anyone confirm the measurement center screw to center screw from b pillar to a pillar where the side rail mounts? I measure 33.25 on both driver and...

    New to Steel Soldiers, interested in purchasing first HMMWV

    I bought an 1123 recently for 11k on Gov planet, after fees taxes shipping and some basic parts I’m almost at 20k. You might be best shopping for someone selling off of Gov planet.

    Part number needed

    Ill be honest it seems cheaply made and very thin compared to all other pillars. I'm not sure how "thick" the milspec c pillars are. Beggars can't be choosers I guess. I dont have fab shop available to me like I used to, so I'm stuck buying what others are selling. It was also shipped on a...

    New to me M1123, PS PB failure....

    This might be a dumb question, but are all MTR tired assumed to be catastrophically falling? I have an 2009 m1123 rebuild from yermo and my tires look dry and slightly cracked, nothing crazy alarming. Am I insane to drive on these?

    New to me M1123, PS PB failure....

    Is this a Yermo m1123? I'm having some big PS issues which I have not had time to deep dive yet.

    foaming power steering fluid and hard to steer

    I have this exact problem as of Friday as well. My power steering fluid is spitting out of the breather nozzle on the filler cap.

    Water fording demil m1123

    I’m in complete agreement. I just replaced the fluid with dex III and as soon as I tried to turn the wheel, I was getting some aggressive grinding horrible noise and then came and looked at the valve and milky fluid spitting everywhere. ....peace of mind for vampire though.

    Water fording demil m1123

    I did just check my transfer case and it over flowed a small amount. I’m not sure if being on an incline / decline would be enough for this much overflow. I hope this all isn’t vampire. It looks like the transfer case was rebuilt in 6/09 by Barstow

    Water fording demil m1123

    It does appear to be over full. The line is between the cold fill line and the hot fill line (while cold). I’ve been doing some additional googling, I sure hope this isn’t related to vampire in any way.

    Water fording demil m1123

    I should have added, the fluid is ‘pouring’ out. It’s significant enough where I heard it dripping and forming a puddle under the vehicle. I appreciate your feedback!

    Water fording demil m1123

    Forgive me, I’m learning as I go here. I just purchased a m1123 from govplanet that had a hack-job demil for all the water fording stuff. I’ve identified and ordered replacement hoses and CDR valve as that was missing. Now, I have a leak of what I believe is power steering from what appears to...
