Wow! The new member gets off to an amazing start. Props!

Mine too

Respectfully, I find it impossible to believe the the most elite military people we have are inattentive. Those I have met are the most detail oriented, anal, and respectable people I have ever met… outside of trauma surgeons.

ie.: Inhibit Friendly Fire panels I guess

And as the sun sets on this trip visiting Eric and working on my M1165, I’m already planning my next trip. Engine is covered to keep the valley dry. Next trip a/c test and recharge, oil washout and change, glow plug testing, new shoes for all four corners, B-pillars, seats, cover the big round...

Toyota FJ and BJ guys use the a/c compressor to inflate tires on the trail regularly. I value my a/c in the summer too much.

Home Depot “Rigid” brand 6 gallon110V compressor. $129. Inflates my HMMWV and Hummer tires quickly. Never timed it but less than 3 minutes each, easily.

Kascar just got me my glowplugs. And a nice new keyfob which I’ll use for my H1 keys. Initially they were going to mail to the wrong address. I emailed them and they seamlessly redirected. Solid customer care. I sent them a E-mail thanking them. Decided I’ll install another time. More wind...

Another way to go is a 115 V 3000 amp sine wave inverter. Then for $130 at Home Despot or Lowes get a small airtool air compressor with storage tank. Then you can always carry pressure even without firing up the unit.

$1200! Yikes!!! I should bought a dozen. Eric tells me to invest in Gold. I think I did better with Hummer parts. LOL

Keep the engine running and attach to the battery of your choice and it should be fine as long as you run a decent gauge cable. IMHO Any thoughts CamO?

Upon my return to California to work on my M 1165, I have decided to take sheet metal and attach it from the bar above the oil cooler all the way to the underside of the cab that supports the hood when it is closed. I will use aluminum or stainless steel, to avoid rust and corrosion. It is my...

Mogman and I both purchased military jet fuel balloon inflation devices. They come with two high performance 24V compressors. Disassembled, one compressor to a vehicle is more than enough to blow more air than a politician in an election year. Seems like something you should look into. Mog, do...

Eric Hummer H1 just capped that transfer case cooler. He has almost 300,000 miles, including Death Valley in the Summer. Guess it’s ok

Still waiting on my January purchase. But I’m in no rush. M1165 has been kicking my a$$. Fortunately I have been lucky enough to work with Eric, the HMMWV whisperer .

Walmart and AutoZone had Dex III last week when I bought some.

To quote a great friend of mine as a message and sign off appreciation to all you good citizens, “thank you for paying your taxes on time, to allow people like us to buy amazing machines like these”.

I know that place… Great to finally get out and about in this beast! Couldn’t have done it without you friend!!! Thanks Eric!

Went for a short adventure with Eric/Hummer H1 and his amazing fiancé Aubrey. Great power. Fun time. Ate some of Eric’s dust, but it’s all good. The 30% decline dirt road was fun. Some more work like glow plugs and seats and doors and sound deadening BUT adventures can begin and that crap can...

Horsepower and turbo whine are back. Attached the down pipe to turbo. Nothing else behind. Wired in place temporarily as support. Sound was not too loud. Turbo to down pipe still leaks exhaust a bit so it will need a gasket. Went on my first real trail with Eric in the lead. Ate some of his...
