    Are there essentially only 2 different hoods?

    I am trying to source a hood and I've located one but there is no part number on it to make sure it fits my M1097R1. I've seen the early models with a hood that has grill built in (what's on my truck). Then there's the newer models that have the headlights with grill that are NOT part of the...

    GA M35A2 officially insured

    This is good news to hear. I am with State Farm and in GA, and if they don't take me as an anitique vehicle (M1097R1) then I will likely give haggerty a call. I don't want a mileage per year limit as I will attempt to make this a daily driver. Still won't be a lot of mileage since I work from...

    VIC1 Intercom 4 Man Setup

    I absolutely must have this. Where would one source the components to put one of these together? Read in the operators manual for m1097 that the noise output is above 85db and I don't want my kids or wife to go deaf.

    Montana Title

    I bought the Montana title as well with my purchase. Hoping it doesn't take that long after paying $200 for that option. I work for a company based out of Montana and I'm remote. So, if this title gets mixed up, maybe next time I'm up to visit the home office I can run in to the DMV and ask...

    24 volt harbor freight jump starter

    I just bought a 24v charger off Amazon. Paid $400. Amazon My rig will have to be jump started to get it off the truck when it arrives so I got this as I am not familiar with the ins and outs of 24v. Already have one 12v noco for my other vehicles. Would have preferred to save the money and...

    New Goodyear Wrangler MTs appear to be available again

    That's the impression I got. In a round about way I was told if I got some aftermarket rims that could help open up my options on finding a shop that could help.

    New M1097R1 owner from Georgia

    Yeah, I've had a couple of Jeeps but that's as close to any experience with off road vehicles. I'm going to have to actually read some manuals/do research so I can use it safely and efficiently.

    New Goodyear Wrangler MTs appear to be available again

    Are Humvee owners able to find shops that can install the replacement tires? I just went to my tire place that I've always dealt with and they told me they wouldn't be able to help if the vehicle still had the automatic tire inflation system or if the tire was in half sizes. I've seen videos...

    New M1097R1 owner from Georgia

    Thanks for the reply! This one came out of Chambersburg, PA. Would have been cheaper on shipping for sure if I pulled one from Albany. Unfortunately, the canvas top for the bed and passenger area has tears in it so I will need a new top.

    New M1097R1 owner from Georgia

    I was paranoid during the auction. Part of me wanted someone to outbid me to feel relief. The wife would complain, and I'd have to sell my 1985 Jeep CJ7 Laredo. Worried about not being able to get it titled and insured is a concern. All of this made me uncomfortable about doing this. Now...

    What's up with these M01097R1s???

    I'm very green to the humvee world. But I would think you could find the springs for the previous variants of the 1097R1. It got a beefed up suspension with tougher struts, springs, control arms, sway bars, etc. to carry a heavier load. Not sure how much relief that would bring, but it's a...

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Clean rig. Very nice. You've inspired me to consider getting rid of my pick up truck if I can get mine insured and titled.

    What's up with these M01097R1s???

    I just bought a M1097R1 from the Pennsylvania depot. Got it for what I feel is decent price. Need to replace the hood and the speedo and the batteries. They were upgraded, as mentioned, to carry extra weight. Hopefully my wife doesn't have the opportunity to say "I told you so". It hasn't...
