    My mechanic who builds rally cars adjusted at the bracket.

    700R4 transmission in a HMMWV

    I like mine. I went with a 765R4 rebuilt by bowtieoverdrives. Only put a few dozen miles on it BUT I really like it.

    M988 upgrade to M1045A2? Is it worth it?

    Retread??? My tires are uncracked and have what looks like 3/4 inch tread. Maybe repaint! EDIT-Maybe she looks that way as she was moving when I snapped the picture so the threads are distorted.

    HMMWV with lift kit - remove or skip it?

    In order to fit the turbo into the engine bay and under the body the vehicle gets a lift IIRC. That allows the manifold and tubes and hoses space to fit.

    HMMWV with lift kit - remove or skip it?

    Before you go crazy to remove the lift, be aware that there is essentially a 2 inch lift on turbocharged vehicles, yet they still look good with 37 inch tires. Do what you will, but I might see what the rig looks like with new wheels PRIOR to reaching for the toolbox.

    HMMWV with lift kit - remove or skip it?

    Do not remove the lift kit!!! It is more than just a lifted body. The fuel tank and hood all need adjustment and it can be a Bear. Just run normal rims and tires

    C- pillar diagram and measurements

    Drive up to NYC and measure mine. Stay overnight if you wish. I have space.

    M998A1 cost

    This looks like the truck that cgxxxx bought for 9 k, converted to 4 door, and is trying to sell for $58k. That means this might be a stolen picture. Have you seen the truck in person and opened the hood? DO NOT WIRE MONEY. That truck is worth maybe 14-15K IF alternator is not the reason...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Pulling the control arm is a bear. Kudos to you. Might as well replace the bushings while you’re there. Best T

    Did something dumb...

    You might also try tapping the starter solenoid and starter with a hammer.

    Generator output

    I agree with Action. 24.8 V is too low. Even 26 V is probably too low.

    Generator output

    Stolen from The Internet: An alternator and a generator are both devices that are used to generate electricity. Alternators can be termed as types of generators. Even if these devices are used for the same function, they are different in terms of operation. Alternators are charging systems...

    Generator output

    Ford Model T has generator. We use alternators.

    M988 upgrade to M1045A2? Is it worth it?

    Be prepared to spend $9k plus. Support cage. Bearings. Rings. Turret assembly. And a bit of time.

    M988 upgrade to M1045A2? Is it worth it?

    My M1025A1 is better... The hood is down so I can see when I drive.😝 Nice Rig Andy!

    M988 upgrade to M1045A2? Is it worth it?

    I don’t see an actual turret

    Air intake removal question

    Use a Dremmel and cut the top of the bolts off.

    M988 upgrade to M1045A2? Is it worth it?

    Love my M1025A1 with 4 speed, if that is any help... BUT you will have leaks galore in the rain and snow.

    O-ring replacement on 12 bolt rim

    Nice write up. The one thing you forgot to mention, which is very important, is you must deflate the tire entirely before you split the rim. Otherwise you will get steel kicked into your face and potentially kill you.
