    camping tent in bed? Two man configuration

    What about one of the military trailers? Probably use the cargo cover and poles. You could unhook it when you are just going out for the day. Probably buy a new 20’ RV for what shipping cost would be to get it to you. Lol I forget how much and difficult it is to get stuff there

    Introduction & a warning

    Tank has a rubber drain plug, both of my trucks have it. Drill a bigger hole and then put an oem plug in it. Plug is easier and cheaper than shipping on a new tank.

    Optima battery install questions

    Action found some that were cheap. I know that he posted them on 2 different threads awhile back. I found the picture of them but I don’t remember what site had them.

    Is this a bad Power Steering Pump?

    I believe it’s leaking from underneath the reservoir probably a rubber hose. When I pull that 400amp generator off I can see what’s really going on. When I did the injection pump I did notice that the bundle of hoses wrapped together with a silver tape was wet.

    Is this a bad Power Steering Pump?

    I read somewhere that you need to get the front wheels off of the ground and turn it stop to stop 30 or40 times. It was a ridiculous amount of times. My M1165 was empty on the resevore and I filled it up and I had the same issue and it was starting to get better and then I realized that I had a...

    Dummy!

    I had an issue on one occasion where my wait light went off after 1 or 2 seconds. It finally started and it had a fair amount of smoke. I have tried to start it 3 different times and 2 of those were today. Light came on and functioned like normal but it wouldn’t start. I charged different...

    M1097A1 Steering Gear Box

    Put anti seize on it. Next time it will be easier to get off. I used impact to tighten it up before I put it on my H2 and then torque it to spec once it’s in place

    M1097A1 Steering Gear Box

    I am installing a PSC steering gear and pitman arm on my H2 and I used a rental from autozone and it worked great. I was charged 16.00 dollars for the tool and I watched her remove it from the plastic. I will keep it for future and I have 1/2 that much in gas going to get it. Maybe put some heat...

    HMMWV Doors/ Tops

    You need to put a few coats of primer sealer or the fiberglass will suck up the paint and turn dull and chalky. I remember painting my friends fiberglass hood with the car and hood looked 20 years old in a short time.

    HMMWV Doors/ Tops

    I don’t remember exactly when I was fitting my x-doors. I believe that the soft top c-pillar is at a different angle than the hardtop. I think that’s the gap that you are talking about. I hated the fit of my military x-doors with the soft top that I never used them. I bought a m1165 hardtop and...

    Humvee purchase, need advice

    I have had jeeps my whole life. Nothing like the Humvee. TM’s are really good at solving problems. I think you are better off with a different vehicle. Humvee isn’t for everyone and that’s not an insult.

    Humvee purchase, need advice

    Buy a truck at auction… it makes it yours. If you can’t turn your own wrenches you have no business owning one of these

    Humvee purchase, need advice

    I personally wouldn’t buy a truck from them. I’m not saying anything bad about them. You will be better off buying truck from Steve or at auction and send it to Steve if you can’t turn wrenches and follow retard instructions. TM’S tells you everything. The design of our trucks were meant to be...

    Humvee purchase, need advice

    I enjoyed the search and bidding and waiting. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I would have loved to ship my truck to retired warhorse and have him sort it out. I’m 2 for 2 at auction.

    Humvee purchase, need advice

    I would only buy an auction truck. I can fix most of my problems. If I didn’t feel comfortable with that I would buy a truck from Steve.

    Humvee purchase, need advice

    Retiredwarhorses is the only person I would trust buying from. I took my chances at auction and I would buy both of my trucks again! I don’t want something that op has messed with. Steve is good Man and you will get a nice truck.
