    Transmission ATF drain plug location

    here in the US, you can buy kits to add a drain plug to a pan. Basically drill a hole and the fitting has a nut and washer on both ends with the pipe plug in the middle.

    Softtop rail mis aligned.

    what model truck do you have as that will determine if it was armored and what pillars are on it. Those holes look very large and typically where the rails connect is a rivet nut with a machine screw unless those holes are where the rivet nuts used to be?

    AC Diagnosis: Help me prevent throwing parts at my M998

    Red dot uses clamps and crimp on bands like cv joints with their own brand fittings so they can be field repaired without a hydraulic crimper.

    Did this truck come from Mobile? All those trucks came from Red River and have been sitting for a very long time probably 5 years or more.... Are there many parts missing and heavily cannibalized? If so, there is your answer on the motor and why it was turned in......

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    there is another style of antenna tie down that the antenna clips into not hooks over the antenna. That way if you get hung up. It will spring up. With this style, it will snag until something breaks.... I have broken 2 masts this way and do not use that style anymore. YMMV
