    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    In the last couple weeks I put a new windshield wiper reservoir w/pump on one, new wiper arms on one, new hood airlift hook gasket on one, ordered and received three antenna mounts (will install next warm spell), and moved both around in my yard to spare the lawn. Even took one for a five mile...

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Saw that one on "Mousetrap Monday". Pretty cool.

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    I agree. It's not my video. Just shows how it's made. Nice thing is that even if the water freezes it still catches them. Then I just have to transplant them or give to the cat for a "real" toy.

    CTIS: How I fixed my 5 flashing lights

    Thanks Andyrv6av8r. I already ordered a used pcu off ebay figuring at least two of the solenoids should be good. At least with it I can cut into the insulation and figure out terminal label letters to which solenoids and cheaply eliminate questions pertaining to consistency of test outcomes...

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Put my rodent destroyer to work in an M1082. Had two M929/M930 complete cargo cover kits stored in there and spotted a few droppings. Uncrated the covers and luckily no damage to anything even though one had a nest in it. Picked these up after my tree mishap last year.

    CTIS: How I fixed my 5 flashing lights

    Kind of an old thread but actually the best one I found describing this that a google search brought up. I have a full air blow by coming out of the threaded vent on the PCU, and these solenoids were my first suspects. All five lights flashing. Tore the PCU completely apart to make sure no...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Agree with the spring replacements! If I do a frame off, I will have a full load of scrap just from all the rust that will fall off. Hey, but she runs like a top and the heater works great!

    Nevada - 5 ton's license plates pulled by DMV

    There must not be any activity in the gas and oil industry over there. Nearly every company in my area that has anything to do with pipelines or reclamation has an M939 series truck doing something. I have uploaded quite a few photos of different trucks on the "MV spotted" thread. It wouldn't be...

    Distracted Driving

    And Germany has the autobahn with a lot of sections having no speed limit! We have extremely low speed limits on our highways and more fatalities. Hmmm. Maybe we are so used to the slow speeds that we get complacent, thus failing to use turn signals or drive in the proper lane and pass in the...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    Mine blows very hot heat. Single digit temps with snow don't allow me to turn down the defrost so I mix with floor heat and crack my window about an inch. That is with the heater fan on one notch below the highest. I have never had a square body Chevy with a bad heater and I have had quite a few...

    Distracted Driving

    My instructor in CDL training told us to use flashers if going 15 under the speed limit. I do it now in my VW on my windy country road that has no speed limits posted (meaning 55 in Ohio), any time I get behind someone poking along at 35. Better a ticket (if that actually is the law here) than...

    Where's AHAB ?

    Good to hear. Been wondering where he has been and checked his profile about weekly hoping he'd been back. Very glad to hear he is okay. I am missing them very positive supportive posts. Never met him but can clearly see he is good people.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I figured if over 24v on the combo that each must be good. I dealt with bringing three up to par and replacing one before ol' man winter visited.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Checked my battery voltages yesterday. Two weeks below freezing with most of them nights below 0°F and batteries on one were 24.2 and 24.4 on the other. I was actually surprised my HF cheapo multi-tester worked after being in the cold in an outbuilding. Cell phone died in outer jacket pocket in...

    Darn. I didn't add to cart but it looked like one available. I tried to find you one.

    GL Lost Surplus Contract

    Something tells me they may choose to be closer to DLA mains and I believe that was GLs reasoning.

    M1101/02 trailers: I need to change the wheels and need the exact size

    I think your trailer is an M105A2. I say this as none of the M101s have deuce wheels, as in your picture. The M105s do. The M101A2 has 16" Chevy 8 bolt wheels.
