Nice

I also thought about fixing BUT my fear with fixing is that the part is weakened and will leak from somewhere else. I plan on camping in the desert off the grid with this rig. I would prefer not to become a statistic. Oil and tranny fluid is not caustic… why do these damned things develop leaks???

I have the same issue. I’m thinking of using Ford F350 oil coolers to reduce the costs of replacement. I’m not driving a 24000 lb vehicle through the desert so I don’t need super crazy heat radiation. I’m not forking over $1000 for what should be a $250-400 part.

Thanks for finding that link, Coug

Andyrv6av8r made one… Post 4048 “what have you done lately” thread. 4051 has his partial parts list. He posted elsewhere regarding his build BUT it is eluding me. I just woke up and I’m still rubbing the sleep from my eyes...

Yes. A member here made one and posted the design and the results. He was happy with what he made.

A lot of reasons here. It is possible your lift pump has failed. It is possible to check valves are giving you trouble. If the problem goes away when you have a full tank of fuel, it is most likely the lift pump.

Air intake my friend. I might disassemble and clean that system.

Looks great BUT when sanding and prepping I typically cover all air intakes.

Towing it with that Corvette, I see.

Traditional HMMWV mirrors suck. Hard to adjust passenger side without assistant. Big. Blocky. Shaky. essentially they are the same mirrors on 1960’s school buses. It’s not about looks, it is about function. Any modern retractable mirror is an improvement IMHO.

Ghost of holidays past Batman… OP last seen in 2020.

I was literally going to make a plug. Done it before. You saved me a lot of time buddy! Many thanks Juan!!!

Doubt I would ever buy MRE, but I do camp with dried foods requiring hot water. I used the term MRE loosely. My apologies.

Thanks guys. I bought the units for $30 apiece so for that price I’m cool. Later I can buy something better.

Cut your own gasket. Fast. Easy. Cheap

If you are grounding to the body or frame that might be why.

Why use a power inverter? If you have a four speed transmission you can use the 12 V circuit to power everything. Seems like the issue might be the inverter??? If the bulbs are 12/24, then you might not even need the inverter.

Thanks Coug. How long will it take to warm food (in minutes or hours) +/or warm enough water to make 4 cups of tea? My plan is to begin hitting the trails with HummerH1 in the M1165 this January.

You have a second battery system or a capacitor or some type of hidden battery connection somewhere. Look to see if the prior sirens and lights had a battery system
