80 mph - Short Duration - 6.5 Melton with 4 Speed with 40 in tires

What does the water from the blue ice taste like? I always wondered that since a kid.

Driver side door striker broke. Again, thankfully, I anticipated this and had a steel replacement fabricated in advance.

I have a 4 man hard top with no hole. It's a steel roof. I also have a turret delete (cover)

Saved this previous post which I believe does a great job in explaining the differences in the trucks --- Newer generations come with hundreds of improved and upgraded parts like 12k half shafts, differential coolers, stronger idler and pitman arms, ext. which may need to be replaced or will...

Just had mine done. Retiredwarhorses is your guy for this.

What's odd about this is these sold complete up until just a few weeks ago. Now all roofs are being pulled as well as slant backs. Its a shame really.

What is the highest mileage hmmwv anyone has encountered? I'm curious as to the life expectancy of the hmmwv with the 4 speed 4l80e with the 6.5 NA engine specifically.

Here's a pic of what you're looking for from under the truck.

Maybe they're easily accessed with a lift or a long needle nosed pliers but otherwise they were a pain in the hind parts to get out. 😉

Not easy to tell from this drawing but I believe so. The check valves are on the passenger side in the rear of the truck on the fuel lines attached to the body of the truck above the frame rails. See encircled area.

40x15.5r20

These are the check valves once they are removed. They are NOT fun to get out but it is doable.

The issue is most likely your check valves at the rear passenger side of the truck. They are 2 brass fittings in the fuel lines. Your problem is identical to what I was experiencing. Delete the check valves and run a hose between both sides where the valve used to live. Use the existing clamps...

Are the chassis the same as the A2 trucks or the 11 series trucks?

The sponsons appear to be the same as the m1045a2 but different than the 11 series ecv trucks. Also, I believe the chassis are different. I believe the 1152, 65, 51, and 67s are the heavier chassis.

Why does it seem as though the m1114 is the odd ball of the hmmwv family. I've tried researching this model and it doesn't appear different from the performance specs of the 1151, 1165, 1167 etc. But the body is somewhat different from all models. It's like it tried to bridge the gap from the a2...

I could have sworn the aluminum 11XX roof was several inches wider than the 10XX trucks as they are ECV series trucks. And thus the wider roof would create gaps in the door fitment.

Will the 11XX Roof fit the A2 Truck? Is the 11XX Turret better than the A2 Turret?

It seems cheaper to go with the 11XX roof if it will fit, likely wont. The 11XX turret setups don't require a turret support. It would seem the better choice. Are the 11XX turret parts as hard to find as the A2 turret parts?
