    The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

    This tells a lot. First Yahoo and Google are search engines and have nothing to do with ordering from the website. Second, you are on a phone and that is most likely your issue. The website might not be "mobile" friendly or your phone is old and can't do what the website requires. Ipad might...

    The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

    I've ordered from there many times now and never had a problem. If you decide to try to order again, you could try a different internet browser as there might be some compatibility issue. I had 1 order that got slightly messed up and they were very helpful and resolved the issue over the...

    6.5L TD 4L80E Surging Idle when in Drive and Hot

    I'm not overly familiar with the EZ TCU but I am in the process of installing a 4L80 with a different aftermarket TCU. I have a reasonable understanding of the 4L80 and the function of the TCU. There are many possible causes but rule out the simple stuff first. Check the tranny fluid level...

    Need help identifying a part.

    Is that normally mounted on the transmission? I'm not using it but curious. Thanks

    Need help identifying a part.

    This was attached to the 4L80 transmission I picked up and I'm trying to figure out what it is and if I need it. The wire numbers are 290 F and 599 E

    HUMVEE Speedometer - Removing Old Decals

    I see where it could be confusing, I meant the manufacturer of the HMMWV. But you are correct.

    HUMVEE Speedometer - Removing Old Decals

    The lens on my speedo is glass. Lighter fluid is great for dissolving adhesive. That said, a new speedo is only $70 plus shipping. EDIT: I checked today and my lens is not glass it is plastic.

    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    If the most criticism you have out of the last 10 pages of this thread is the windshield wipers on the wrong side, I must be doing something right!

    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    This weekend drove 1200 miles in 18 hours round trip to pick up a new transmission for the HMMWV. 4L80 and 242 transfer case. I've collected many of the other parts for the conversion and pretty much just needed the transmission and transfer case.

    Goodyear MTR tires.....?

    The problem is the 16.5 in a 37" tire. There are no good road options unless you change to a 17" rim.

    Please help settle an argument over tire size

    Measure the circumferance of the tires, if they are the same or very close it will be fine. Different tire manufactures can size tires differently and call them the same. Example, a 37" tire might be 36.5" at one manufacture and 37.4" at another. The 36.5" has a circumference of 114.6" while...

    Dodge cheap steel rims on HMMWV, are they 17 inch?

    Interesting concept .... I'm actually working on exactly this. I mentioned in my build thread (or somewhere) that I would prefer the stock wheels to the H2 wheels I currently have. But I want 37x12.5x17 BFG AT's for tires. I have a set of 5 24 bolt rims and I'm looking for 17" dually rims to...

    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    Not much of an update but when I bought the HMMWV it had 2 differrent batteries, 6TL (Exide) and a Deep cycle marine battery. Although they would start the truck I would have to charge them up after a few days. If I ran the engine everyday and drove it they would be OK but not great. Added...

    1987 AM General

    Tell us more about it! Is it still a 6.2 3spd? If it is a 6.2 3spd (likely), with soft top and soft doors, not frills, no air lift bumper, tire carrier, winch, etc.... Less than $10K IMO.

    ISO Hard top roof and rear panel

    Just curious but are you doing a 2 man or a 4 man hard top, slant back?

    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    I finally got the hood back on today. Also finished replacing the side marker lights, the rear were done but I hadn't got to the front yet. Also replaced the reflectors on the front, still have to paint the screws. This completes the lighting, 4 side markers replaced with LED. Front...

    Basic/A2 steering wheel same size?

    yes

    IbisTek Tire Retainer (Carrier)

    I'm not sure I follow you. The BFG is the same size as the stock tire, both are 37 x 12.5. I have the Rhino tire carrier and BFG 37 x 12.5 and nothing interferes at all.

    Removing/Unscrewing Badly Corroded Smart Box Plug

    It just sank in, that is just a glow plug harness and doesn't use (or wired to) the temp controller. Thanks for the education.
