    New-Old Stock HMMWV?

    GP offers financing from somewhere. I wouldn't be surprised if these are repo's.

    Mileage On Humvees

    Got to trust the odometer. These trucks aren't equipped with a hubometer from the factory. I'm assuming he's asking because GP states the odometer may not be accurate.

    What to do with old Armasafe batteries?

    I traded mine as cores for Wally World replacements.

    Aux fuel switch issues

    HMMWV's have auxiliary tanks? If it was an old Ford F150, I'd say check the fuel pump relay for the switch, then check the bad pump directly. It was always one or the other of these things.

    OHIO BMV Changed my Street Legal Title from Virginia to Off Road USE only

    I'm jealous you have an on road title for Florida. I've been very leery of even trying to get a title for mine in this state. When I originally bought it in Dec '23, I specifically called and discussed obtaining a title as the checkout on GP would not allow it. She straight up told me GP has an...

    1st Post, Almost 8 Years to the Day

    Don't trust the M35 fuel gauge. They tend to fail. Mine failed and was happily sitting at 1/2 tank while I was stranded on the side of the road.

    Storage charges from the yard

    Somewhat off topic but I hate Veritread bidders that don't bother reading the post before bidding. For example, my truck was listed as not running and having a flat tire. So many bids stated offer was good if truck was running and moving. And no, I don't have an unloading ramp. In this case...

    Fuel gauge help

    He didn't swap the ground wire. In your diagram, he swapped the red wire with the blue wire.

    Battery Box area

    My M1114 is the same way. The seat pretty much covers it, but I wouldn't want to drop anything metal down there. I think it's just the way they are built. I've done some research and found the M1113/M1114 have a different seat base/battery cover than all the other variants. May just be something...

    Battery Box area

    Mine gets covered by the passenger seat. Do you have a picture?

    HMMWV Rocking

    Just drive your truck on dirt 100% of the time like I do. Then you can slide to a stop every time. It's fun!

    Horn issues

    Just curious, did you try turning on the brake lights using the 3 position light switch? I know my truck does not enable the horn if the light switch is off.

    Serpentine Belt

    Mine was also disconnected. I found the male nipple on the fan clutch side was missing and had to replace it first. To do all that, I jammed my hands through the fan blade. Someone here later said it would have been easier to reach it from the underside of the truck. Oh, I reread your post and...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I flushed my M1114's radiator yesterday and removed a bunch more butchered wires and hoses.

    Runflat removal and install - some good and bad

    From memory, I believe the runflat states which side is supposed to be the "outside". It's written on the sidewall. So the "outside" would face the smaller wheel piece when it's being reassembled.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Yes, kinda. It's the first from GovPlanet. I did have an EUC and SF97 on my 1978 M35A2 back in 2009 through GovLiquidation.

    Looking for used ECV front springs

    You could try posting this in the Wanted section of the forums. I had luck with parts there.

    M1114 mystery cut cables and wiring questions

    Good to know. i have the same abandoned wires still attached on my truck.

    Gunner seat belt removal

    I removed mine yesterday as well. Start with the forward bolt. It took a bit of torquing to break free. (a lot of torque actually) Once it was off, the plate over the belt can be removed and you have access to the back bolt. It wasn't as tough as the first. I put the bolts back in once the belt...
