    Rubber cord source?

    I was thinking that too. Can you recommend a source of the fabric-covered version Mark? BDGR

    Glow plug harness question

    I did some more searching after finding the P/N in the TM. Looks like this won't work, too many pins. Maybe I could cut some off... (kidding). BDGR

    Glow plug harness question

    Digging up an old thread. Can anyone comment on whether the cannon plug on this part number (12379865) can be spliced into my existing engine wiring harness? I have an old smart box that has died and the connon plug is corroded on. The rest of the wiring is OK as far as I know. I plan to get the...

    Replacement canvas or vinyl covers

    YurtGuy, I wish you luck and am happy to provide any advice and experience I can. I speak "heavy-duty sewing" and will help if I can. There are a couple of us on the site who sew more than recreationally. To All: That said, comments about $400 5-ton bed covers strike a nerve with me. Skip the...

    Starting problems 1991 Humvee

    Agree w checking all wiring connections and battery state of charge. Could be something simple (not that new batteries are cheap, but you get the idea). Also, not everyone knows that the post the positive lead off the forward battery goes to has a corresponding post on the other side, meaning...

    My 1952 M135 Build

    Well done! The Cummins swap will be of interest to many. Do you plan a 4BT, 6BT, or something else? New transmission too I assume? BDGR

    Bimini Jeep Style Top

    It's easier than you think Mogman... he posts his cell phone # in the threads. He prefers you call and chat. Good old fashioned human interaction! Call him, he's a good guy. There is a sticky thread he wakes up periodically, but it's simple, for HMMWVs he does tops, door skins and rear curtains...

    Bimini Jeep Style Top

    WW is retired and can't keep up with the business he has. I've spoken with him more than once and my assessment is he doesn't want or need a website and he doesn't want to grow, just serve fellow owners with his lifetime skills. He is having fun, and keeping busy serving an enthusiastic niche of...

    Media Blasting HMMWV body

    I was thinking of trying the wet sandblasting technique over a tarp in the yard in a place in the yard where I have no plans to ever try to grow anything.

    What is the best power steering pump?

    New to me. I learn something everyday. Can't remember where I heard the claim I referred to. Thanks RWH. BDGR

    What is the best power steering pump?

    Yes, there can be a difference. When I was searching last year, I found many p[umps that had the right part number but turned out to be for civilian 6.5 Diesel applications. The civilian version of the steering pump does not account for the HMMWV fan clutch pressure, and as a result can lack...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Dropper mine off at a garage willing to swap the transmission and transfer case. Had gathered everything to do it myself but other obligations continue to delay me and it's too cold now to do it myself. I hope to get a highway-ready HMMWV back in a week... BDGR

    Humvee transmission

    I had someone else do the swap, for a 4L80 and NP242 from a turbo diesel setup. Used EZ TCU for the controller to avoid having to replace the wiring harnesses. There's several places that will sell you a salvaged HMMWV 4L80 and they are easy to rebuild (I'm told). I'm having mine replaced due to...

    HMMWV wiper arms pantograph?

    Intriguing idea. Got me interested so I looked around at retrofit arms. They exist, but there doesn't seem to be much on the net about installing them in a non-standard application. Some scant boating forum entries on retrofit and repair. It sounds like a great idea. I hate driving with my head...
