    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Thank you... I was just being honest. Okay, there may have been a few of the very first UNIMOGs in military units. But that was for watering the flowers in front of the general's barracks. Or as a tool for building fortifications. From a European perspective, hardly anyone understands your hype...

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    No, Unimogs never where in service... thats for gardening in europe! Picture 13 is a MOWAG Eagle IV Mark I and II was based on the HMMWV... the newer one based on the Stairer Duro Platform... see wikipedia for more https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mowag_Eagle

    New HMMWV owner here

    Oh come on... what's next... Helmet on when cycling?! I can't listen to this “safety first” bullshit anymore. Where's the road tripping, the adventure?! Is “doing something awesome with your buddies” just for youtube?!

    If it is a runner, grab good friend. If you can't wrench on trucks yourself, then at least he should be able to. That's what I did... and drove the 500ml straight home from the port. California to SD is a bit more of a drive now, but I would do it the same way again. Pack your tools, Dexron III...

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Military vehicle meeting Bürglen Switzerland. Super event! Off-road rides with heavy armored recovery vehicles, field howitzers, M113, and much more. Laser shooting with a Centurion. Visit to the nearby border defense communications bunker. Great people, great weather... simply great!

    Youtube video with some good Yermo footage

    So I'm with the guy who gets his hands dirty. I think I would have left the other two Instagram grimacers bleeding next to a big cactus in no time. As the saying goes here in Switzerland, freely translated. "There was some of good stuff in it"

    anyone source for Super Swamper TSL - BIAS 38.5x16/16.5LT

    Thank you. I have written to the dealers you mentioned to me. Summit says they have them in stock, but that's what vividracing said. 4wheelparts has them listed directly as backorder. Thank you!

    anyone source for Super Swamper TSL - BIAS 38.5x16/16.5LT

    Hi A friend of mine has the SAM-37 (Super Swamper TSL - BIAS 38.5x16/16.5LT) on his HUMMER. But unfortunately very old, cracked and worn. He would like to have exactly these again. Now Summit has told me they are out of stock, VividRacing the same. Do any of you have a source? thx, hansen

    No, not the injector... the glow plug cable!

    SOLVED! The same glow plug constantly roasting mystery..

    I'll come back to this again. The twitching of my right testicle just won't stop until the question is answered. Especially as the answer is quite simple and straightforward. Replace the plugs on the spark plugs and see if the fault moves with them.

    I can look into the future, I'm 6 hours ahead of you ;-)

    SOLVED! The same glow plug constantly roasting mystery..

    Switch the connectors with the glowplug next to it. When the issue travels with the connector, you will know that the injector is fine.

    Transmission Filter

    This should be the NSN 4330-01-496-5720. And it is the transmission OIL filer... you not filtering the transmission ;-) Dextron III is prescribed as ATF. In my opinion, no additives or special oils are needed.
