    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Hey Juan!!! How are you? Things are finally getting done here, up North. Looking forward to finally driving this beast daily. How are things in The Big Easy?

    Lau glow plug wiring harness

    I seem to recall posts regarding fire hazard. IIRC

    Started my duramax conversion. Finally!!!

    Watched your videos. All kinda non-specific and proceed a bit slowly... consider editing. Music is too loud and drowns out your voice, consider losing the music or lowering it. Consider an initial careful description of what you will be doing on each video with a page outlining it. Where...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Color me ignorant..., this just bolts in and does not require welding? [EDIT] Later this day I received a PM from the OP indicating this is a total bolt in and can be done frame on.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Lotsa' work. Finally placed the HMMWV on a lift and went over all of the underside. Ball joints ordered. They are sloppy. Tie rod ends ordered, they are sloppy. Fuel cell leak at decline 30 degree angle appears to be rusted line, tank getting dropped. My transfer case linkage was loose and...

    Hummer 12 bolt beadlock ?

    Why not just use a drill at the junction b/t the bolt and the 5 star nut? That's how I remove rust frozen bolts. Fast, no special tools, and then easy to replace with new nuts and bolts.

    Thought this thread was gonna ask about paint options, but instead your vehicle looks kick @$$. Really nice work...inspiring. T

    Hummer H1 emblems on an M998

    Thanks for your service, and do what makes you happy. Then pass the vehicle on to your kids as part of your legacy. There are some purists, and there are some who want to restify, and others who want to go all out. Some here participate in military parades (Juan Prado for one). Others have...

    Not the sale of a truck that is off color. These FMV's get sold all the time. That's why this website has an awesome "Classified Section". I hope all of us who wish to sell their FMV's have success, including Gear Report. The sale of something in any other manner than "first come- first served"...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Have someone who is objective and dispassionate read what you've written. Then have them give you honest feedback. When I sell a vehicle, I sell it. No build up, no 5 page long descriptions, no theatrical descriptions of "The Good, The Bad, The Ugly". No soliloquies about how painful it is to...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Sorry, but I'm uncomfortable with this... Looks too much like a sales ploy IMHO. Just read his website and it looks like supreme silliness with his building up the vehicle and then stating how he is listing it for sale BUT ONLY to someone he feels worthy, etc... Malarkey What a...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    You should never push anything but the green button. You should always cut the black wire. You should always remember The Brooklyn Dodgers were called "Those Bums". You don't tug on Superman's cape You don't spit into the wind You don't pull the mask off that old Lone Ranger AND... You don't...

    m1045a2 only two gears, limp mode?

    There is nothing less fun than using a technical manual instead of months of trial and error. Seriously, TM's are the way to go. Remember, DISCONNECT THE BATTERIES prior to doing any electrical work!

    Request advice - HMMWV headlights

    Watch this video: https://youtu.be/zul5ZHPs8VA He is converting to LED lights, but he pulls the buckets apart and re-assembles as part of the video. This is what I suggested that you search for... Search here is difficult but always your friend. Best, T

    Request advice - HMMWV headlights

    Search LED headlight installation. There was a guy who made a video. You don't need to cut the things he cut, just look at how he disassembled.

    Have you tried site sponsors or that great auction site [FleaPay]? Best, T

    New guy with a slant back question

    This opens up a whole other wasps nest... People complain about loud driving noise in HMMWV's, but I have noticed that the only time it gets too loud in my rig is when my wife is in the passengers seat... The problem has nothing to do with the Diesel engine. ;-) Drive that HMMWV till the wheels...

    New guy with a slant back question

    I also have a "real" slantback with a turret. It leaks like a b!tc#. So what?!?! I love it! Just enjoy the freakin' ride. Best and Welcome to the fun. T
