    Door Kit Companies

    If you want soft doors, as is implied by your post, might I suggest buying a set of beat up ones and taking to a boat shoppe and having them re-cover in Black as such a place does similar work all day for boat owners using robust materials. You can always buy a decent set and paint the canvas...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    What an awesome cause. Great Picture too. Very jealous here. Makes me wish I could have been there, but then again, all my exes live in ...."

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

    Unless you live nearby the OP, I would be very cautious about this request. I would not give my doors. So many pieces to lose during disassembly or put back wrong in re-assembly. So many things can happen. So many ways shippers can destroy the doors sending or receiving. So many ways the OP...

    Smart start control box

    I'm just trying to keep you from getting stress from the site moderators. Like I said, I know you're trying to contribute and help. Bottom line is that the site operator says no. It is listed in the Terms Of Service for this site. I don't completely understand BUT this site is a great resource...

    constant "eeeeeeeee" noise

    A Cadillac valve is used to control fan on and off. There is a hiss that comes from it. Not loud but also not soft. Wrapping the valve in synthetic rubber sheet helps eliminate the hiss. Much different that a belt whine or a pulley screech.

    Run flat question

    I looked into Magnesium and RWH strongly advised against. He feels they are an ignition risk. Magnesium burns super hot and cannot be doused easily.

    electrical wire diagram

    WOW. How much did that cost? Smart idea but wasn't that like a gazillion clams?

    constant "eeeeeeeee" noise

    I see all these movie references, but I would start easy and work your way up... Are you sure its not your wife? (Always wife in my HMMWV. Drowns out the Diesel engine at times). More Seriously: Loose belts do this. I had this in my vehicle and actually posted about it. Make sure all belts are...

    Half shaft broke

    Half shaft broke

    They are not 12K. 10K and 7k are interchangeable IIRC. 12K is not a civilian application, and Autozone probably doesn't do too much military HMMWV support. These axles are meant for Civilian H1's and they fit just fine. I have a set, and others on this forum have used without issue. You should...

    Half shaft broke

    Only if she's talking about 1963 Pontiac Tempests. ;)

    Half shaft broke

    Buy a new set of half shafts at autozone 16058n, 16059n, 16060n are the part numbers. Make sure you order the correct front shafts, as they are side specific because left and right are different lengths. $114 clams per half shaft. (used to be 99). Rockport supposedly sells parts, but why with...

    Success at Repairing Military AGM Batteries?

    I would discharge and recharge, and then keep them on trickle charge as good emergency backup batteries, IMHO. Others might disagree.

    Success at Repairing Military AGM Batteries?

    Please do a battery load test and report back the results.

    Swap to a 350

    I'm guessing you're OK with 5MPG

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    There are multiple battery threads talking about decent batteries for under $100 a pair that will fit the battery tray and battery retainer. Those are wet batteries that can leak in a roll-over but they are cost effective. I won't buy Optima since they abandoned the USA. (Screw them for...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    h I know you replaced your boots BUT AUTOZONE has entire 10K H1 Hummer axles for $100.oo. Part numbers, IIRC are N16058, N16059, N16060 I forget which is rear axle and which are front axle numbers. You need one of each front and 2 of the same rear axles. Rear axles are symmetric, front are...

    Glow plug "tip" didn't come out with the body

    You will hate my answer: IF ALL ELSE FAILS...… Remove the exhaust manifold if you have a turbo. Remove the valve cover. Identify the exhaust valve and use a valve pushing device to open it. Tape a screen to catch to stuff coming out of the exhaust port on the head (if you have a turbo), to...

    Jump starting using 12v systems

    My point is use the correct charger for the correct job. 24 Volts is 24 Volts is 24 Volts. It is not 12 Volts. Best to you Coug and OP, T
