    Talk to me about horns

    All the parts are available on a popular auction site. The compressor is a Extreme Outback Air Compressor. Two come in a aircraft fuel transfer unit and they are super well made and flow a massive amount of air for their size. For the brake air tank just search for military brake air tank...

    Talk to me about horns

    The HMMWV has a terrible horn for the street. This winter I'm installing a 24v compressor (aircraft fuel support) along with an air tank and horns for a 5 ton. Mark

    Turret hole enhancement ideas

    The sunroof idea is interesting and as far as an emergency hatch, explosive bolts would be wild lol It would be like a spacecraft. Mark

    Batteries

    One thing to remember when using dual batteries it is imperative that they must be of the same age and model. If not then one of those batteries will have less potential than the other so inevitably one battery will be overcharged and the other undercharged. As already stated when installing...

    Tow bar

    If I was in the market for a tow bar for my M998 I would absolutely take the med tow bar over the Ibis Tex. Have heard of many issues with the Ibis and that is enough for me. Besides, the med tow bar is much more manly lol Mark

    Blackout lights

    The lights are not easy to see unless it's real dark and that is the point. Learn how to turn them on and when it's dark out you can check them out. Mark

    Trailer tire question

    For my M101A2 I went with 265-75-16 Kendra Klevers AT-2 A tad wider than the stock tires and just about the same height. Had them for three years now and zero issues. Mark

    Title/register a trailer with only a bill of sale - Louisiana

    Oh I see I had it backwards. The M37 on the trailer makes much more sense lol. I would love to have one of those trailers to haul my M998 but I would need some real truck to haul that mess. Mark

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I concur as without a top it is easy to fold down and clean but as I have a top it's a tad more work. lol Mark

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    First thing to do is see if you have power to the switch. I had a problem with mine as the wipers only worked in the rain. The contacts at the bottom of the windshield get rusty and as in my case when damp outside it was able to make enough of a connection to work. My fix was to liberally spray...

    re-using a torque converter

    I would pickup a cheap gallon of Dex 3 and using a drill driven transfer pump just push the fluid through the cooler. If you make up an extension hose to the gallon container you can filter the return fluid. Use a doubled up rag or cheese cloth as a makeshift filter. This way you can inspect...
