    Best mechanical transfer case with 2WD option for HMMWV

    SHARECROPPER: Your images are very helpful. Your thread is excellent. The fact that you're doing all this while dealing with multiple back surgeries and joint replacements is remarkable and inspirational.

    Best mechanical transfer case with 2WD option for HMMWV

    Ultimately, the idea of 2WD was appealing, BUT the fact that there will never be hub lockers available means the idea was a misfire. The idea of testing the vehicle without a front driveshaft would indeed allow a feeling for 2WD, but without the ability to disconnect the hubs from the rest of...

    Best mechanical transfer case with 2WD option for HMMWV

    No one ever spoke about cutting holes or building selectable front hubs. Once I realized that there is no way to select front hubs, I dropped the idea of changing the transfer case. Milcommoguy and sue, I think your comments are just slightly out of bounds, and are not quite on point. Helpful...

    Best mechanical transfer case with 2WD option for HMMWV

    Is this the unit? (Ignore the electric cylinder attached to the lower right hand side. Usually there is a hole there.) Your images show an installed piece but your images don't cone down on that area so it is hard for me to identify. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.

    Backup camera solution?

    Are there any 4 or six camera options that will record? With GPS?, with navigation?

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I suggest the engine is toast and you're :deadhorse: ! Would you really trust an engine that has seized and rusted and cannot be spun with the main crankshaft bolt? Would you drive that engine on a 1000 mile camping trip off the grid, even if you get it to turn over with acetone and ATF...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Might I suggest filling each cylinder with "Marvel Mystery Oil," and letting sit for 48 hours, maybe even a week. Also, boroscope is your friend. This is what I did back in the day with old gull wing Mercedes and such [because the short blocks were unobtanium]. Then with glow plugs and...

    Is it hard to cross border in an old HMMWV from USA to Canada and back?

    Thanks, and beautiful pics of your old girl. Great condition! Problem with HMMWV is it is still considered active service. Not sure if that changes things.

    LOUISIANA PROPOSED NEW LAW : HB 549 Provides for Military Surplus Motor Vehicles

    The link does not work... What is the status of this law?

    Starter options?

    How do you know starter not rotating is not PCB related? Did you hook up direct 24 Volt to the large wires and then activate the solenoid with smaller 24 Volt wires? How do you know this is not a solenoid issue? Did you drain engine oil and make sure no water is/was in there? Make sure U R not...

    Best mechanical transfer case with 2WD option for HMMWV

    Excellent information and making me think BowTie is gonna be the way I'm gonna go. Looks like your still in the midst of your project. It is an excellent read! Did BowTie help with the TM wire and adapter plate, and did they help with sourcing a 4 speed shifter?

    Best mechanical transfer case with 2WD option for HMMWV

    Excellent thoughts. I had not considered. Thanks. There might be an issue with mating up the new transfer case to the stock shifter due to the 2 wheel extra option, I guess, unless I configure the stock shifter to bypass that setting.

    Bed covers, seat belts & Storage ideas for M998

    A friend of mine designs and builds rally cars. He is the only guy I trust, but he is up here in NY. I seem to recall there might be a few races in Florida, perhaps even a few famous ones. That means you have qualified guys there IF YOU LOOK CAREFULLY. I would recommend finding someone who...

    Bed covers, seat belts & Storage ideas for M998

    IIRC, you posted about this about a center seat for you kids, and were advised that without rollbars, it is a significant hazard to put a kid there. Dock Rocker warned you about this in another thread..."If you like your kids don’t put them in a center rear seat. This is not the same truck as...
