Two cent test for free. Stop the noise. Pull the belts off and give alternator a spin by hand. Look listen and feel for clunky, rough, grinding, sloppy bearing, shaft movement, goofy end play. Another thing to look for is broken / cracked mounting ears on alternator lower front and rear...

Testing the glow plug system the way you did is a smart move. Simple and proves what happens over and over with failed controllers. Just pay attention as plug gets HOT real FAST. Voltmeter even smarter test, less likely to burn your fingers. The power to feed the plug circuit (a relay or...

It may not operate. Most of the pumps become gummed up or rusted... Failing sooner or later. Pumps not cheap either, CAMO

That's right. BAD NEWS BEAR, If you placed your disconnect switch to disconnect the rear battery ground and using the 12/14 volt tap at the center of the two batteries to feed 12/14 volt circuits. Now the 12/14 volt equipment becomes the ground return of the front battery. Trying to pull a...

Should be a detent or notch for those across the pond for each of the selected positions. Transmission control at trans may be a little stiff when turned by hand or jerky when pushing / pulling on the control linkage. Hand shifter disconnect of course. Shifter locking positions of 1,2,D,N,R...

Beat me to it Porkysplace... Here it is again,The free owners manual, TM-9-2320-280-10.pdf CAUTION• Vehicle must be stopped, engine off, and transmission shift leverplaced in “N” (Neutral), before transfer case can be shifted.Failure to do this will result in damage to drivetrain.• Do not...

On the outside that looks to be a nice truck. Having followed along with this post, (and many more) I would be most concerned with the systems on the insides. Seems every time you turn around it is something else. That's can be the life of the HMMWV hobby until one clears out all the bugs...

Build it the way you want.... and Drill BABY DRILL. Could have been bullet holes. CAMO

Supersession > Fancy word for replaces, supersedes, new and improved. Person, product, process, etc. Hmmwv A1 to A2. From flip phone to IPhone to... Beam me up, Scotty. CAMO

That's not right! AND it is loud. You get a possum caught in the fan shroud / box or is box rubbing on fan. Just guessing... guess number two, did the starter disengage? Transmission fluid OK, Oh that's three. Get some help and climb around it to isolate the noise. Easy on the throttle...

What / which model were you looking at. Many have coupling transformers or active amplifiers circuits. My guess is that after you get pass the extra parts, the speaker by its self will work just fine. Find an LS-454 that should meet the cool factor. Disconnect the matching transformer (600...

No vacuum on Hmmwv. Uses a cable pull control. CAMO

It was noted that the converters are not instant on. Previous posts. That being said, the flashing rate of the 12 volt side will not start or maybe completely interrupted, failing to flash the lights. The solutions given for the electrically inclined are easy, reliable and simple, building...

In a hurry...I would make sure the cylinders are clear of any fluids. Keep the glow plugs out ?? After a good clean up, all back together, full of oil and a little in the cylinders, Spin it up a few more times and see if you get oil pressure. (plugs still out) Might be a good time to run a...

That or something just as simple holds the whole kitten kabodle together at each wheel. 75 MPH would scare the P00P out of me. That would be like a run away train. Take a look at what can happen at 45. So much for three point seat belts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrsQIKlcbsM Wear...

I was holding back LOL, when I first read about putting some kind of hubs on the front. My thought would be to cut a hole in the foot wells and stop like the Flintstones. YA BA DA BA DO, CAMO

Skip the STE/ICE sender (as nothing to do with operations) and slap something useful on like a real gauge. Now you can check on those pesky fuel issues, anywhere. Mine runs 6-7 PSI with typical flutter of the pumping action. $14 dollars for good info when thing are going wrong out on the...

I'll take "HMMWV" for two hundred dollars" Whats are the existing body mounts for? Jeopardy, CAMO Seems like all the welding and sandwiched plates will eliminate any body giggles, flex and squeaks.

Who would have guess?? "The old screw in the gas tank trick" "Agent 86" Camo

Removed all the lines and two straps? Maybe stuck with some rotten tar based gunk OR some knuckle head ran a sheet metal screw or two in the tub area and into the tank not knowing whats under there? I remember you had the tub cutout to access the tank?? That's the easiest to work on. Good...
