    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    The amount of geese that immigrate across the border is unreal. But at least we get to shoot them!

    Why Blue Hummer Spindle Nuts? Hummer H1’s video answer!

    I'm not denying the issue at all. It's an issue. I was speculating about the cause. Edit: Pm sent

    Why Blue Hummer Spindle Nuts? Hummer H1’s video answer!

    It's hard to tell definitively from the video, but after a second look it does appear from the position of the nut that it wasnt threaded on far enough. The only question is, was it tight once and then came loose, or was it never tightened properly to begin with? He did mention in the video that...

    Why Blue Hummer Spindle Nuts? Hummer H1’s video answer!

    Interesting. It looks like the tapared bearing wore out which caused the loosness. Maybe as a result of not maintaining the gear oil in the hub?

    Block Heater

    I ordered the $15 OEM one (dont need the heater, but its a good price on the cord). We'll see how it works out.

    Block Heater

    Lo and behold, I just discovered my truck has a block heater too! Can anyone confirm that this is the right cord? https://www.ebay.com/itm/262717819761?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Z1GxJ2heTOu&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=sbWPGazcQxK&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Edit: better...

    Humvee floor mats

    Do you notice any improvement in sound deadening? Maybe this combined with doing the floors would make a big difference. EDIT: just re-read your post, nvm lol

    REV truck?

    All of my TM's have different procedures for serial 300xxx and up, so unless there is some sort of weird exception I think it's a pretty safe rule. The problem is you usually can't see the fan clutch in the pictures, and probably not the steering box. If you can see the rear diff you might be...

    REV truck?

    When the bidding goes stupid 🤣 Pretty sure 300,xxx serial and up is REV.

    What am I getting into with an auction truck?!

    Possibly, depends on what parts you need. Dont forget that auction fees, tax, and shipping add up fast. And its more expensive to ship a non runner.

    Has anyone attempted to make their own hard doors?

    ABS may not be the best option. It tends to expand and contract with temperature swings. I was actually thinking about trying to make doors out of the solid PVC sheets you can get from Home Depot. It's something like $130 for a 4x8 sheet of PVC 3/4" thick.

    Are all good trucks gone?

    1. It's a REV 2. Trucks with doors usually go for exponentially more. I think they get more attention, more watchers, and more bidders. They tend to be promoted more in govplanet's advertising as well. 3. It doesnt really need anything. Unlike most demilled trucks it actually has windshields...

    Ballistic windshield wiper extensions

    Negative, just has splines.

    Ballistic windshield wiper extensions

    It's corrosion. One of mine was really bad, I had to cut it off with a sawzall and then replace the pivot. You may have better success if you are more patient than me and use lots of penetrating oil and/or heat.
