Installed a USB charger w voltmeter and put the plywood deck in. Bulldogger

I have a 24V USB power node to mount and several other PMS items to complete before driving to the Graves Mountain Rally end of the month. The USB power supply has an internal voltmeter, which will be interesting. It is off Amazon, and the last USB p/s I bought didn't last long. I hope this...

Started in earnest on the half door frames I sourced from Hawkman. Cleaned up the frames w wire wheel and evened out the corners. Then sprayed with a rust reformer primer I've never used before. Hopefully it works. They get painted OD tonight, and I'll begin covering later this week. I...

Started making some half doors. Sourced the empty frames from Hawkman. Good fellow to do business with. More details on the process in my HMMWV's thread. Bulldogger

Glad to hear you got it fixed. Thank you very much for sharing the solution in case someone else has this same problem. That's why we are all here. Bulldogger

Cabell, how much will T-shirts be this year? The website says $10, but that page is marked 2012. Bulldogger

Thanks for the reminder Cabell, will get the registrations sent this week. If anyone is interested, I have two HMMWV front passenger seat back frames I can bring, $10ea, NSN 2540-01-184-6602 PM me if interested. Bulldogger

+1 on that, it is very common. I had two clipped main power cables in my ride. Bulldogger

I second the recommendation to pull the gauge cluster panel out for a peek, or perhaps technically NormB is seconding my recommendation to peel behind there. Your wiring does look cleaner than some. It's a small effort to disconnect and reconnect the light panel plug (unscrews, then pull) and...

I see them weekly here in the DC area, as the National Park Service still flies a few. I love the sound too. I saw three SH-60 Blackhawks touring around the Capitol region on my morning commute today. Very different sound! Bulldogger

On my HMMWV it's like this: Follow the hoses from the Cadillac valve (yours might not say Cadillac on it, mine doesn't because it was not made in Cadillac MI). One hose will go into the front firewall on the driver side of the vehicle, and if you look into the fan shroud on that spot you can...

Welcome to the forum. I recommend downloading the Technical Manuals if you haven't. They include troubleshooting guides besides maintenance descriptions and pictures. It will help if you include a bit more information and some pictures if possible. There is a lot under a HMMWV hood that...

Make that a NASCAR sticker and you'll gain $1000 in value and at least 25MPH gain on top speed.... or so some people seem to think... Congratulations on passing inspection. Also, that HMMWV looks way too clean and shiny. BDGR

Agreed: check for loose wiring or connections. Do it with power off, and if nothing obvious then can try doing it with power on (non-running), but wear gloves and goggles. These vehicles get lots of loose connections from age, neglect and vibration. I tidied up many on my truck. One...

What did I do to my Trailer today (technically, yesterday)? Took possession! Bulldogger

Recovery complete. Drove an hour from my house with my son in the HMMWV and we met with a friend's son who bought this 2011 A3 two years ago and never got around to converting it to ball hitch and 12V to tow behind his late model Jeep 4dr. Cleaned up the pigtail, plugged her in and the...

Running fuel system treatment with a good injector cleaner made a noticeable difference in my Humvee. But I have a friend with the same engine and his does have quicker pick up. Sometimes it is down to chance. Bulldogger

FOUND IT! My cell phone I mean. Fell out of my pocket when suiting up for my ride home, I guess, and another cycle rider at work saw it and picked it up. Honest men still exist, and they ride Ducati's apparently... Here is the picture I have, not sure it's enough to ID. BDGR

Thanks for the feedback. I'll check with him when I get back in contact. Lost my cell phone, or I'd post a picture he sent me. Life is on hold while I get a replacement! BDGR

I have a line on a flatbed generator trailer in good condition for $500. It has, or had, good tires brakes and wiring. Problem is I need a cargo trailer, like an M101. Is it worth the fuss of trying to make a cargo bed on top of the generator bed, or should I go with my gut and just wait for a...
