    11xx driver mirror in lower position

    The upper bracket for the higher position is shorter and less angle than the bracket for the lower position. If you look at the lower hole on the body you can see how it’s further forward. I also replaced my mirror head and it doesn’t have the notch. Action helped me find the right one for the...

    Did you have to cut your b-pillar off a little bit?

    Injector Return Line replacement

    I can’t get them on with the clips. I got the slip on hose from Germany and it seems like a good quality and I believe they use it on Mercedes. Melton used the same hose you showed and it looks about the same

    Log of my M1165. Project Joshua.

    I don’t think they have very many of them with out armor. They are a weird model and that’s what I liked about it. I believe they are the most civilian looking model and you get the tach, ac and turbo without the gear driven fan or whatever it is. I believe I need injection pump and that will...

    Injector Return Line replacement

    I bought new clips and hoses from Mac Motors and after an hour and a half trying to get the 2 clips on I realized that I will never be able to get to the other injectors. I used the 3.5 mm push on hose. I think the engine needs to be out to change the hoses and clamps. Good luck 🍀

    Snake bit? Snake oil? Venom? Snake tales? Tale of 2 snakes? Once bit? bloodletting? Good looking truck!

    I think it’s just like mine. I have a missile truck or at least that’s what the tag says. Mine doesn’t run either but it will be amazing when it does. I ordered all of the b-pillar stuff from Mac Motors.

    Replacing the HMMWV Seats

    They don’t fit! You will not be happy with them! The seat bottom is 3” inches too long. I will make you a great deal on mine because I’m not going to use them after spending a few days trying to fit them

    Replacing the HMMWV Seats

    Those seats will never fit in your truck. You will have zero room in back or front. I tried the second row seats from a caravan and they look small until you try to fit them in. I didn’t like how they fit and they probably need 3” cut off the length of the seat base to get the right fit...

    Replacing the HMMWV Seats

    I bought a brand new set of dodge caravan seats for mine! They look so nice with the red stitching. I paid like 960 plus shipping. I liked it for the drivers seat but I don’t think they fit good anywhere else. I really like the oem high backs and I will probably dye them black. Really hard to...

    Fuel pump issue -- can't get fuel rod back in block

    I ordered my new pump from Mac Motors and it was a much better quality than the one Melton used. Old pump had a lot of travel before it was solid. I was reading on HPG and it said the spring shouldn’t show on the right pump. I did notice that spring showed on old pump but not on new. I don’t...

    Fuel pump issue -- can't get fuel rod back in block

    I used gasket maker to hold gasket to plate and gasket on the pump. I didn’t want it on the block and I figured I would be trashing the pump if I changed it again. I would only have to clean it off of one side of plate that comes off. Not a lot of room in there and I could only get one hand

    Fuel pump issue -- can't get fuel rod back in block

    I covered the end of rod with grease to hold it in while I took forever to get the plate and pump on. I had about 1/2” of rod sticking out of block and that was in far enough for me to get pump on. I also started the metal fuel line to help hold pump up

    Remove the 2 10mm bolts take plate off and see if rod slides right in.
