    HMMWV headlight trim rings got stolen

GP has been a pleasure to work with and I have bought about 10 trucks from them now. They had a few hiccups but always made it right. I had a...

    Replacing the HMMWV Windshield

    Nice write up.... Try some dawn dish soap next time for lube to get it to slide into place in the frame. I have my local glass guy cut the glass (auto glass) $27 per side which hurts less then $80 something plus shipping. on the gasket, Mac motors is considerably cheaper.

    HMMWV headlight trim rings got stolen

    I would be surprised if GP would not make that right and send you a set. Especially if they were in the photos from the auction. Did you call them? there are lots of those on the popular auction site that I think I am not supposed to say their name.

    Knuckle and gear cover

    Just take it off measure/ trace it and reinstall. I rebuild the hubs on every Hmmwv I get and to take this part off clean and replace you are only looking at about 10 to 15 minutes once the wheel is off. Make sure you use some gasket maker on it when you replace it.
