    Looking for a set of Hmmwv Doors for a carbon fiber mold.

    It could be even cooler if Malicious Motorsports would reply to their request. I sent a PM, sent an email, and left an email address post about this and nothing! I'm in San Jose and will be heading up to the MVCC meet in Plymouth in a few weeks but I guess they've either found some doors or...

    CV BOOT REPAIR

    There are a series of videos on You Tube about CV boot replacement on civilian cars. They show you how to use a cone tool to replace the boot in the vehicle that isn't going to work in the HMMWV but the section of the video that actually shows you how to replace the boot on the axle itself is...

    Backup camera and radio rack stuff

    One of the first things I did when I got my truck was to install a backup camera because of the poor rearward visibility. I originally mounted the camera in the ambulance body but everyone wants to touch it so I relocated it down on the "D" Beam where it's out of sight. The image I get is...

    electrical wire diagram

    It was a llittle pricey but I felt if I was going to trace wires it would help if I didn't jump lines as I moved from side to side. It's definitely paid for itself over the years and it cost considerably less than 1 used soft door!

    Half shaft broke

    Practice a little brake-throttle modulation and it'll move. If you don't know what that is as a HMMWV owner you should. It's especially handy in cases like this.

    installing a batt. disconnect switch

    Most contactors (relays) that will handle the power needed for a HMMWV have heavy duty coils that draw lots of power that's wasted and could be used elsewhere. While contactors and relays do similar jobs the term contactor is used for systems switching more than 6 amps.

    Alternator not charging

    HUH? The shunt is on the ground side (-) of the batteries. It's sole purpose is to provide current information to the STE/ICE connector. I would not run a wire from your alternator to the shunt. You can run your heavy wire 0 or 1 gauge to either the terminal post on the starter or directly to...

    GLOW PLUG MAINTENANCE

    The glow plugs in a normal system last for years. I think I changed to the newer non-swelling type maybe 12+ years ago so they do not need to be changed out on a regular cycle. Occasionally you will have one fail but it's not an indication that all of them are getting ready to go. Make sure...

    Blink when it shouldn't

    If you open up the turn signal switch you'll see a number of contacts that are actuated by a cam on the arm pivot. They can get bent and cause the problem you're seeing in which case you can bend them back with a pair of needlenose pliers. You might also find the switch got wet and has...

    Alternator not charging

    Do you have +24v on the exciter wire? This is the small #2A lead switched by the start switch. Without it the alternator won't output. You didn't put in one of the defective keyswitches did you?
