    HMMWV REV truck brake bleeding

    I HAVE the military antilock brakes. Is there a different procedure to bleed them?

    Anyone replaced a rear fender on a HMMWV?

    Wear breathing protection. CARC is cancer causing.

    Received IP. Engine is full of external sand. Will power wash tomorrow. IP itself is loosened with 6 lines of the 9 removed. Gonna make a hole and tap the crossover in anticipation of water injection while the intake manifold is off. Gonna tap another for boost pressure sensor.

    IP external nuts are removed. Three internal bolts removed and the timing gear is clocked properly. Tomorrow we will remove injector lines and fuel inlet line. Looks like time to pull the intake manifolds. 😖

    It’s more like the frustration of a kid waiting to open his birthday presents BUT the birthday is a week away. This IP was toast years ago. I was warned when I purchased this non-running vehicle that the IP was probably shot. It was worth a chance trying to get it going in order to save $2000...

    Pics of what to do when you strip a hex head… Dremmel mini-disk to rip a straight line across the top of the stripped head, then use a flat head to twist out.

    Well… bugger! IP is bad. Don’t know if woodruff key sheared or shaft broke. Engine was turning over and periodically slowed down. Then there was a metallic ping and the starter engine speed sped up. I spoke to Steve/RWH, and he gave me some amazing information which I used to see that the...

    After uncounted delays, Hummer H1 finally lost a bet with his girlfriend because I showed up in California ready to work! New power steering hose installed. New batteries installed and wires and such cleaned and dielectric greased. New regulator installed. New fuel filter installed. Genius...

    Humvee beadlock rubber runflat replacement

    I’ve seen some use 5 and 10 lb persuaders to strike the deflated sidewalls of our tires to free them up from the rims before pulling apart.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    He is displaying a spirit of 1776 flag. It is beautiful. No one here compares European flags to Hawaiian shirts.

    No wonder I lost brake line pressure today

    RWH sells the flexible lines IIRC. Ask me how I know.

    To get my HMMWV (M1097A2) in good running order... need help.

    If you have to ask, that is very concerning. Stainless steel requires a single flare. Other materials require a double flare. I’m with Mogman on this

    Slant Hatch - Top and Bottom release levers pulled : ( Best way to realign?

    BLK is an awesome member. He has also made it clear that he removed his Slantback ages ago. I have no doubt that either something is out of alignment OR something is bent. You need an assistant. You need heavy magnetic handles to lift the hatch up and out. You need to measure and realign...
