    Humvee Engine Knocking (yes it's actual knocking, probably)

    Split boot for outer CV axle 10k success!

    Guys, differential gearing does not affect half shaft speed in this case. Tire RPM gets multiplied by 1.92 to identify half shaft RPM. Diffs only affect engine/tranny/transfer case RPM. Or am I missing something?

    Montana - has anyone applied for a front license plate exemption?

    I can’t believe we’re having this discussion. It’s just a freakin license plate. Get a drill. Get a zip tie. Buy a bracket. Attach to the grill. Attach to the front bumper. Attach to the front fender. Just wait till you need to navigate the TM’s. 🙄

    So I don’t mean to be curious BUT, in Montana you don’t have the technology to fasten your plate/tag to your brush guard? 😜

    200 Amp Generator to charge power bank
