Found out that the "center hole" I was referring to in pic 1 is for-sure meant to be for cargo tie-downs. As well, in picture 2 & 3 that I posted, the front-most holes are also definitely for cargo tie downs; however, the two on each side that still have threaded inserts aren't in the...

I second that. Everything on my HMMWV is Vinyl, including the Army Star that they sprayed over with what looks like Krylon plastic green. The vinyl looks really sharp because it's very consistent and clean. It looks like it's just starting to peel off in some places, so I'll have to get some...

Last contribution I have to derailing this thread... ...now I have to say that I really like my girlfriend. She's got a few complexities, but she likes the world being straight-forward, like me. None of this saying one thing and meaning another BS. It's why I love to be around her (and she's...

If you aren't aware of them, prepare to be blown away when you discover that your 2-man truck actually has rear seats hiding underneath the truck bed filler panels. Between each front seat and the rear wheel well/sponson, you'll find that there are large metal panels that make up part of the...

It can in the sense that the vehicle isn't going to suddenly fold in half on you, but you need to consider the support that it's providing. In the event of a side impact, you basically leave nothing rigid there to support the vehicle body and prevent it from crushing you. As well, I imagine...

Finally had a good, warm day with nowhere to be, so I seized the opportunity to wash the HMMWV. Removed all the vinyl, removed the bed filler panels and as much insulation as I could life up and out then proceeded to sweep, scrub, and hose down everything I could. Made sure that I cleaned up...

Amen to that. I always have to give a good push to my one functional door. I'm going to straighten it up after I finish repairing the window stitching (or replacing...not sure yet). I'm just glad I only have to use ONE bungee cord while it's still sitting in the driveway, eating parts until...

3-point Seatbelts! I typed in "MWO" + that MWO number into bing and this was the first thing that came up: https://www.nsncenter.com/Library/TM/MWO-9-2320-280-35-2

Well heck, I searched that exact P/N on Kascar last night and didn't see it. I must have typed something wrong and missed it. Thanks for pointing that out. I wish I knew that I needed this thing when I just placed an order last week with them. My next planned order was going to be some...

Resurrecting this thing out of some frustration myself... It's definitely a 3/4-16 locking nut. By spec, it's an all-metal prevailing torque nut, but the caveat: the nut can't be taller than 0.406 in. I can't find a nut like this on any part site, and my alternator didn't come with one. I've...

Pictures are worth so much here. We'll be able to tell if any of the parts are wrong...something is bent...etc.

Does the rest of the HMMWV operate correctly? I'm not advocating that you try to run everything if you believe there's a major electrical fault, but in case you did, did everything else seem to operate fine? Just considering if you have a reverse polarity situation. Otherwise, I'm thinking...

Alright, some follow-up details. Got up in the bed and got a few photos. There's a few holes back there I didn't pay attention to before. Smack dab in the center of the bed, there's one hole that's has no threaded insert or anything I can identify. Right beside both rear footwells are two...

While I'm 100% that the part numbers are different, isn't the injection pump for the 6.5 NA detuned and 6.5 NA the same, except that the 6.5 NA detuned pump has the flow rate dialed down from the factory? This one's really for my own confirmation, because I really don't want to think about also...

I'm still a HMMWV noob, but I haven't yet seen that style of mirror on one. I thought that was for an MRAP when I saw a few floating around...are those mirrors covered in any TM or otherwise just have an NSN or P/N for them? *EDIT*....because that's not a HMMWV. :p I didn't even look at the...

Everything's more vivid and clean than my engine, that's for sure. Otherwise, looks the same as my 6.5 GEP. I'm trying to wipe everything down as I go through and work on different portions of the engine, since it makes a big job feel a little easier...

The transfer case has two jobs: to alter the gear ratio you're in (high range or low range) and to lock the front and rear differentials together. The TM's-which are your bible in your job-describe the fundamental operation of all the systems in the HMMWV you are working on and provide...

That was temporary, because I kept moving them around while I was playing with the brush guard...I'd honestly forgotten about it. It's still not going anywhere for a while, but I'll put it in my to-do list on the first post so I don't forget again. ;)

Actually, it's assembled exactly to official spec straight from Luverne. I am missing the lanyards at this point because it was a low priority for me. I'll be buying a bunch of 6" lanyard since it seems like my HMMWV is missing plenty of them all over the place. Now, is using a bolt with...

Picked up a Savi ST-654-031. Snaps right into the bracket that came on my HMMWV for RFID tracking. Tag seems to power up correctly, but I currently have no way to test it as I cannot find any interface software. It is amusing when I plug it into my computer, as it registers as "DoD Active...
