    Antenna Mounting

    That is a very interesting way to use the mount. It typically has the plate on the side fender and the mount to the rear and the offset to the right or left on top of the mount.

    M1061a1 restoration

    Water got in from the air hose gladhand being exposed open is my guess. Open air tank petcock and apply brakes to blow more crud out.

    M998 Brake Issues

    Part of this trouble shooting sequence would be to bleed the brakes. Just unplugging the switch will not remove air or indicate the master cyl is bypassing. Nothing special to this being a hmmwv in standard brake troubleshooting just like any vehichle. We are not working on the hydroboost side...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Easy to find. You can use the square or half moon lock pins. Home depot, Lowes, tractor Supply. OE also uses a metal wire rope crimped on both ends on to the pin assembly so it does not get misplaced. Also easy to make with stuff from Home Depot or lowes. I also had another pin at the ratchet...

    M1123 Power Loss

    Green stick is a water separator. I would replace also while open. Clearly the filter was not changed and everything else done would be suspect and needs to be verified. I would give him the bill for the filter and separator and demand a refund plus labor.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    in La, we have a military vin stencil law as an option. 99.99% of law enforcement has not a clue to this statue. I have asked friends in State police and different depts who had never seen the law. I carry a copy with all my paperwork. I have never need it yet, as alI I get are waves and nods as...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    typically the covers I have seen are black rubber covers that slip over. The bottom can be cut to make it easy to slide on after everything is on. This vendor on ebay has it and is reasonable plus not stupid crazy shipping. Used him many times :)...

    HMMWV ubolts 12339050

    sad the state of counterman today..... Ex NAPA store manager here in another lifetime. What model truck do you have? See if what you need fits a m998 base model then you can ask a parts store for Hummer h1 parts. Attached is a link to spicer with measurements. Scroll to find your measurements...

    M1102 Hand Brakes

    Correct, if the system is working properly, twisting the knob will tighten or loosen the cable as the parking brakes are manually set assuming all the components are working properly. They need to be lubed well and often neglected. Older ones used to have a zerk fitting. I do not think the...

    What is this???

    Not sure as that is not the one I was thinking of. Some hoods from the sandbox have a bracket there to attach a thermal id panel but that is not it. I would be curious to see a close up pic. That was done as a unit/field mod and not a common practice.

    What is this???

    That bracket is probably it. They were typically black and slighly triangular irregular shape. Post pic of bracket. I can't remember the name of the company who made them so I could post pics of the lights.

    BEWARE

    I don't have any info on this situation but not uncommon for phone number not to match address or names. As part of my job, I fundraise and try to find contact information for donors when I don't have it. Do your due diligence but use more than google.
