    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    I started removing the radiator stack so I can change the water pump pulley to a 5 groove to prepare for an AC install. Also the radiator has a couple of corner brackets that have come desoldered from the core. Once I get it out, drained and dried I'll get the corners fixed. In the mean time...

    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    I cleaned up the rear corners and replaced the light buckets. Although I ordered the correct rivets they don't seem to be correct. It took a while to figure out how to get them right. New reflectors on the way as well.

    Need 12K yoke part number

    With the part number supplied I was able to find one for $25. It's on its way. About the only thing missing now is the transmission and transfer case.

    Need 12K yoke part number

    Great, that's pretty much what I thought but I only have experience with 1 HMMWV, mine. It's better to ask people that have experience with many.

    Rear Axle Differential & Geared Hub Vent Line Question

    You can easily remove the oil fill in the hubs and then check the line. That won't cause any back pressure or damage seals.

    Need 12K yoke part number

    Thanks for the reply, my driveshaft is the old style with the flange that bolts on the yoke. I have a TH400 and 318 (iirc). I bought the driveshaft in 2019 before I really knew what I was looking for, it was cheap. I have been collecting parts for the conversion and planning for the swap. I...

    Need 12K yoke part number

    I was hoping someone would know for sure what I am trying to do will work. I'll just order it ( 5937525 ) and hope for the best. Thanks for the replies.

    Need 12K yoke part number

    I have the driveshaft. I need one of these for the 1350 universal joint.

    Need 12K yoke part number

    Here is what I have. Ultimately I'm hoping I can use it in my m998 with the stock differential and 6.5 GEP converted to 4L80 with 242. I believe it is the correct length and will fit the 242 output. I also think I only need to change the differential yoke. Based on the information above...

    Need 12K yoke part number

    Thanks, that's the one I thought it was but couldn't confirm it. This year I'm doing a 4L80/242 conversion and I have 12K driveshaft from a A2. If I understand correctly the universal is larger and requires the 12K yoke on the differential. I believe it is a direct swap from the original m998...

    Need 12K yoke part number

    I can't definitively figure out what part number I need for a 12K rear differential yoke. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

    Where to Sell Trucks

    I would start with the forums since that is where people are that would be most interested. There is a classified section on pretty much all of them. Craigslist and epay are other options as well. And as mentioned GP but I suspect they will take the most amount of your money if ti sells...

    Any protection if one manages to flip a non-armored humvee?

    In 1984 I had a 1978 Datsun B210 that me and a friend were in. We were having a discussion about a particular corner in the road that was marked 15 mph. I said I could take that corner at 35 mph. The rest of the road was 35 mph. Although I made the corner we came out of it sideways and...

    Any protection if one manages to flip a non-armored humvee?

    No amount of anything is going to protect you in my opinion. Even with a roll cage, there is nothing of structure anywhere. It's all relatively thin aluminum that will tear away. Nothing secures well and would fly around and rip off, like doors, windshield, tops etc. A roll cage will stop...

    Damaged sponson

    As noted above, I have never seen one or touched one. Since everything else is aluminum I assumed it too was aluminum. Steel is much easier to fix.

    Damaged sponson

    Careful heating aluminum, it will quickly melt away. I would only use heat sparingly.

    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    I've already tried a 5 pound fine tuning tool and it didn't touch it.

    Damaged sponson

    I've never fixed one or even seen one before. I'm assuming, based on the picture, it is bent up and should be more like a 90 bend. I've built many single use tools to fix stuff. I'd build a way to mount it then using schedule pipe that fit inside and outside I'd get some leverage. Using a...
