    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    You might want to consider 3m solid red reflective tape in a L pattern on each bottom corner of the shelter. Military used the red for many years with merdec camo and the beginning of the 3 color. Also still used on some trailers from what I noticed on rolling stock.

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    I might be missing something but ownership of the vehicle will not matter if you get pulled over. If LEO questions a valid registration/plate ; you and your DL # get cited. A parking violation or toll nonpayment would be written to a tag but I can't think of anything else. Now I expect that to...

    Battery adapters printing

    From what I have seen before it looks like ABS automotive style plastic definitely not Aluminum. One seller on ebay as of today is asking $50 each which maybe I am wrong sounds crazy for plastic that is why I thought someone might be able to 3d print?

    M101A2 Wheel/Tire Upgrade?

    The a2 & 3 use a surge brake unit with a different lunette. There is a substitute aftermarket adjustable riser but it is not used by the military that could raise it.

    M101A2 Wheel/Tire Upgrade?

    Original Goodyear Bias is a 36x12.50x16.5 Thanks for posting as I have some old 36 8 bolts on a rolling chassis and would not have thought about trying it on my a2's as I had always heard about rubbing and do not like spacers.

    Radio mount for HMMWV GMV

    For the HMMWV, It makes sense as the slave port is on the inside passenger side and very accessible. For others on the outside of cabs not so much. It does have a 24v to 12v inverter, thermal and overload protection. Pricey but for me it was a solution with out having to add a converter and plug...

    Radio mount for HMMWV GMV

    You are correct! I have a double stack on my radio tray without the enclosure and the mirror is pretty useless even if i lean forward..... I have a mrap fish eye wide angle mirror mounted on my right brush guard so at least I have some visibility... I can't imagine what this set up would let...

    HMMWV prices are sure coming up

    What I was referring to multiple items from the same location the same day. If I recall the times I got lucky there were maybe 15 m923's that day at Fort Polk, 12 m998 one day also at Fort Polk, and the m101 trailers were maybe 50 at Red River that day. I also recall all the large lots of M931...
