    Towbar identification assistance

    Looking for assistance in identifying this tow-bar. From the Tow Bar Smart Book this looks like the M113 bar to me. Tagged NSN2540016676880 does not seem to match the model. https://www.parttarget.com/2540-01-667-6880_2540016676880_4026AS651-1.html Does not match nominal length. Perhaps...

    M998 upgrade to A2 idler/pitman arms

    Well I was wrong about the pitman arm, it was well worn as well. All done with the tear down and getting ready to install the A2 idler, pitman and drag link. A2 on left A0/1 on right A2 idler is definitely improved Old assembly ready for scrap. Seems a shame to toss the drag link...

    M998 upgrade to A2 idler/pitman arms

    Do the tie rods interchange or does the A2 also have longer tapered shanks on the tie rods? I understand the A2 arms can use the A0 drag link with spacers under the nut…? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    M998 upgrade to A2 idler/pitman arms

    I replaced the idler about two years ago with the original A0/A1 style. The pitman arm was and is still good. Now worn with approximately 2k road miles on. I’m going to step up to the A2 style arms this time around. I’m debating weather to upgrade the drag link at the same time. Q: are the tie...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Replaced 7.5k LF & RF axle. Autozone. Yeah I’m aware of the quality concerns with off shore parts. The price and warranty was right. Also took the opportunity to replace the hub input seal for good measure. Component wise the build looks very similar to the 10k axle specification.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Removed all rear upper A arm shims. It’s a big job but it did go much faster after getting the procedure practiced. Off to the alignment shop Monday to see how camber turns out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Picked up 5 radio trays from GovPlanet. Took the best components of each and mounted on my M998. I have the tall mount turbo leg/bar assembly for the rack but decided against the conversion at this time. The old style M998 feet seem to work just fine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Set front toe in per TM. 3/16” toe in and called it good enough. Centered steering wheel after many, many adjustments… Removed all shims from LF control arms to get positive camber under control. LF is nearly 0 degrees camber now. Still have to do the same to RF which is running about 1...
