    Interested in buying a 90 6.2 Hmmv with 59,000 miles. New guy here!

    That is a base model unit with no top. Price should be 15k tops. Just check out E-Pay to confirm. If you want to spend that money for a rebuilt truck, check out “Plan-B”. They restore and modify HMMWV’s and such professionally and at high volume. IMHO Best, T

    Towing weight equation- Do I need trailer brakes?

    Those things look awesome BUT I prefer my Easybrake system with mechanical brake activation. Pulled a Landcruiser round trip of 4400 miles with one. Felt like I was pulling and stopping a feather. I strongly recommend using any brake activation device you can get. Best T

    Towing weight equation- Do I need trailer brakes?

    Always use the assistive braking system! Makes your drive safer. If you live near snow or ice, then it’s a no brainer. If not, rain or oil on the road can make a routine trip a disaster without assistive brakes IMHO Happy trailed. T

    Engine fan

    SOOOooo, if I want the fan to disengage while water fording... Rather than rev the engine I can install a switch between the thermoswitch wires. Then flip the switch to ON when I want the unit to disengage for water fording. Nice. Great video. T

    What is this on windshield?

    Usually, when I ask this question, it is because I live by the beach and there are a ton of seagulls. Question 2 just looks like an hour meter and a airflow meter. Best, T

    Can the Protector Box be repaired?

    With all due respect to dockrock... I and several others on this forum have repaired boxes. You need to search threads and go to the electrical forum and dig deep. Just understand and that a repaired box might fail, so keep identical spares. I have several kds greens and several others...

    HHMWV Fuel tank leak

    Exactly what happened to me. Repaired the seal and now it is dry there. Of course, now I just sprung a leak at the hose leading into my new power steering pump. It is always something! Glad my leak waited till the temps dropped to the thirties, as I would have overheated working on the truck...

    Super easy windshield wiper military to civilian on the cheap.

    I had issues with trying to upload from my iPhone. Instead I transferred images to my computer. All that delayed picture upload. These parts come in almost all civilian wiper blade boxes, but we usually just throw them out. The "J" adapter is just one of the little plastic adapter pieces we...

    Super easy windshield wiper military to civilian on the cheap.

    1- remove arm from vehicle. 2- remove blade from arm. Save screw and bolt! 3- grind off rivets that hold the blade receiver to the arm. [EDIT 05/28/2020 - just cut the arm immediately proximal to the closest rivet. Just cut it off and forget about all the grinding and smoothing. The arm...
