. Welcome to the Ourfit! Congratulations on purchasing your new-to-you HMMWV! There is a young man in Texas that has three young children who hosts a YouTube channel called Demolition Ranch. His babies ride in that vehicle regularly so you might search his channel about his hummer. Might...

. For sure... It would be nice to find out that he is one of us!

. Congratulations Keith!!

. BERZERKER888 , Maybe you need to call up and tell the mechanics that replaced your transmission. Tell them your job was so cheap that you just wanted to pay them twice... :cool: Especially compared to what this auction truck went for. I can't imagine WHO would have paid what appears to be...

. So, I may have lied. The official part from the military surplus dealers. Price is more like $50, possibly more. I wanted to give you the right answer. There MAY be other choices too - that I don't know about - but the Digital Flasher is definitely what you need to use LED signal bulbs in...

. LED's generally require an "electronic flasher" to make the bulbs blink. They don't draw enough current to heat up the piece of metal (in the old mechanical flasher) enough to make it flex and cause the flash to happen. Cost for the electronic flasher is about 3x the old style - but it will...

. I think the goal is/was to have US (the members) to have images in particular as uploads - to keep things from disappearing over time. Where there are step by step instructions on how to do something for example. Either way it works, just sometimes things go poof and disappear...

. One of our members has a collection of 3 Deuces and two trailers that he listed in Classifieds today. 3 trucks for 18k along with two M105 trailers and a couple of spare transmissions and other parts seemed like a heck of a deal to me. Been sitting for about four years, but they might be...

. Ya know... I think @Another Ahab is onto something jrtoffroad. We all know without question that what you are going through is BS. Problem is knowing that and not being able to scream foul and actually get something done can't really be fixed without from your congressman. You have tried...

. Welcome to the Outfit! Happy to have you as part of the group. Don't hesitate to ask questions. You will get plenty of ideas and suggestions. Heck, if you find a truck and want an opinion - I am pretty sure the guys will give you their thoughts. There is a TM (Technical Manuals) section...

. Definitely worthy of saving for historical purposes. Sure would be neat to know more about the salesman too...

. Sad to say that SS doesn't have the hardware to host Video. We have the ability to host and post images and PDFs only. Kinda "screwy" but the only choice at the moment is to upload a video to YouTube or other similar site - then link back to it. LINKS rather than posting the image or file...

. Any chance you have access to "house air?" so you can mostly plug the tank filler hole with rags and kinda pressurize the tank? ASSUMING that your truck hasn't sat around so long that the creaping crud fungus among us hasn't started growing in the tank? And that maybe the green slime in the...

. Sad to say that I understand. The ones with and without tits...

. You might try tapping with a hammer as far around the nut as you can reach, then go for it again with a wrench. If you have a spare set of hands - maybe smack the wrench with a hammer. (like you would do with an impact socket that just won't quite budge a lug nut)

. We had a machine that did that ground rod work when building powerlines. Basically a jackhammer attached to a sliding platform. Oh so much better than working hard with a hammer of any kind. Of course, those soldiers in need of "special training" wouldn't have had access to use that tool...

. Honest to goodness, I just can't quite understand how these fittings corrode. They aren't spastic, odd or weird. I got after mine with my normal "angle wrenches". About a third shorter than a regular wrench with a 30° and a 60° on the other end. I got nowhere. Huff and Puff and grunt and...

. Yes Sir. If you can find them I would be happy to read up!

. That is impressive! Mobile Scudd launchers 30 years before anybody had ever heard of such a thing...

. A lot of "quick and efficient" is how involved you want to get in the removal before driving away. I have seen many folks use bolt cutters below the dirt. I was going to suggest a post puller but @chucky beat me to that suggestion. :cool: Another idea is finding the official driver and...
