    Humvee steering wheel stuck

    i was going to replace my steering wheel and took off the horn and the nut while pulling upward I hit the center with a hammer. Didn't budge. I stuck wd40 down the threads of the center and waited a little, tried the same thing again. Didn't budge. By this point I'm frustrated so I try sawing...

    3L80 to 4L80E Transmission Swap

    My whole goal is to get the overdrive. It seems like there are many routes to take and the one I'm looking for is the cheapest least modification intensive route. I have limited access to equipment to do the job so if there are people who can do the actual swap (around Washington state) then a...

    3L80 to 4L80E Transmission Swap

    I have a 1994 M998A1 with a 6.2L NA and I am looking to start the big project of swapping the 3L80 for the 4L80. I've started my initial research and saw some discussion on the list of things that need to be done and it is quite long, but some were saying that its better to upgrade to a 6.5l and...

    How am I not dead?

    So I took a trip in my humvee over a mountain pass to a town about 80 miles away (chuggin along at 50). Before I left I checked the tire pressures and they all were inflated correctly, taking note that the two rear tires were a little low. I get their, I do what I need to, then I come back home...

    Military Vehicle Scrap Yards (Humvee)

    As you said if there is any good stuff in the trash of trash then it shouldn't be there but, by chance, do you know of any of those contractors and where they dump their stuff? I'm sure you could find small stuff. I often find myself needing some specific mount or whatever and no one is selling...

    Resources for fuel injector upgrade 6.2l '94 humvee

    Does anyone know if the stock injectors and fuel pump of the Hummer H1 6.2l is interchangable with the humvee? I know the two vehicles are virtually the same. Well before the first question is answered, does the old 6.2l hummer h1 have more hp than a stock humvee (M998A1)?

    Resources for fuel injector upgrade 6.2l '94 humvee

    Well I know that Predator Inc has upgrade kits. I was just wondering if there was other simpler options. Predator also makes a full engine conversion from the stock engine to a 6.7 cummins engine.

    White Smoke from radiator area M998A1

    I recently went on a small trip out to a off road trail and it was a 30 mile trip out on a small highway, I kept the RPM down below 3000 and around 50 mph. On the trail after two uphill trudges, I stopped to take a look at a nice view and came back with a moderate amount of white smoke that did...

    Tach not Working

    I found the proper wire to hook up to, it's 2A and its one of the main three coming off the alternator. Problem resolved!

    Military Vehicle Scrap Yards (Humvee)

    Are there any military vehicle scrap yards that one can visit and purchase parts from? I think I've heard of them but I don't recall them being open to the public. If a scrap yard were open to the public, does anyone know if there are any near Seattle?

    Tach not Working

    I have checked it and it seems like the ground connection is my problem. It was connected to an existing ground screw with another ground on it. I touched it to the fuel gauge ground while the vehicle is running and it momentarily registers the rpm but only on instant contact of the ground cable...

    Tach not Working

    Do you have the documentation for the tach for the M998 series?

    Tach not Working

    So the dual voltage tach kits do work with the single voltage 60amp alternator? The kit did come with a small instruction sheet, but any more detailed paperwork would be much appreciated. I'm going on a big off roading trip in a few days and wanted to hook up a tach for the journey. Why do...

    Tach not Working

    I agree, I definitely have the wrong alternator. But why should that matter in a tach? It's only measuring the signal wave, what does it matter if the alternator produces 12v and 24v? And I have check the pin on the inside of the plug and it is in good condition, it's just the insulation around...

    Tach not Working

    Does anyone have a diagram of where the AC tap terminal is on a 60 amp 28v alternator?

    Tach not Working

    So if the dual voltage alt is only for te 4L80E tranny then I do not have the dual voltage alt. I don't know how this affects the signal for the tach though.

    Tach not Working

    Do you know which model humvees are equipped with dual voltage alternators? Mine is an M998A1, but I think it says the kit is for the A2. Did they switch alternators from A1 to A2 vehicles?

    Tach not Working

    It mounts on the windshield frame. I just put that screw there to make a connection. Don't think that affects anything though, but then again I'm not a professional.

    Tach not Working

    I have a tachometer that is an alternator sensor one, and I cannot get it to register the rpm I bought the kit on ebay which has the cable that goes to the fuel gauge then out to the alternator. I think the part going out to the alternator is the problem, I hooked up the plug to the outgoing...
