    Humvee brackets would like to identify

    Greetings from the other side of the pond! Those are part of the combat id thermal louvered panel holders. Used on rear tailgate, sides, x doors, hood and front brushguard. Not very common as required to be removed per demil requirements. The id panels are very scarce. If you remove the ones...

    NSN 2590-20-006-8327 GPS Mount

    another member here had those. I think it fits the plgr plastic mount as it is also 6 screws. I had not yet tried to verify. I tried to find a reference in any of the radio tm's but was unsuccessful.

    Lubricating Oil vs. Motor Oil

    Non detergent oil is used for some air compressors, machinery, and very old applications. It has absolutely no additives, just plain ole oil. Anything modern requires anti foam/anti wear, and detergent additives for long life. Unless your case is from the 40-50's, it will not be happy...

    humvee won't start

    My wait light would only come on for a nano second. Almost could not see it in bright sunlight. My glow plug temp sensor was the problem in the water crossover pipe. The big sensor with 1-1/2 hex and multiple wires with a big black cap. YMMV

    M936a1 and driveways?

    How is your water table? Is the ground underneath packed or rocky underneath? Where I live the ground and watering table have accelerated cracks but to be fair it is already started. Your wrecker is twice the weight of my 5 ton. Take it easy and slow might help.

    HMMWV Red Dot install

    The water pump pulley is out there. It is actually assigned 2 different nsn and part numbers. OE Amg makes it (typically black) and it is also a red dot made item (typically silver). I think amtak who is a member here sells them on epay. Also try...

    HMMWV tires, runflat required or not

    For the piece of mind they give, leave them in. A guard ? hmmwv in NJ a few years ago lost a wheel/rim/hub on the turnpike, flipped on its side and pinned a service person under it. I believe she lost her arm. Just a fyi that things can change in a minute and these trucks don't have much...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Yes, You have the opposite. You have the airlift angle brackets which are not needed for the mwo reinforced straight bumper. Just remove brackets and re bolt latches and you will be perfect. I think you need to loosen the bolts on the slotted rear bracket and juggle till it lines up then retighten.

    M1123 Driving

    Welcome to the madness! If your truck is well maintained , safe, and it is capable, then set accordingly. My experience is slightly different as my stock 6.2L, 3 speed runs great. I feel very comfortable with my baja tires at 35/40. I cruise the interstate at 65-69 with no problems. YMMV and I...

    Help decoding the ID Numbers & letters on my Humvee Tail gate

    Someone else who served could better answer as I did not recognize some of the other numbers and designations? It is safe to think it was some type of support medical unit, is my best guess?

    AM General's NXT 360 light tactical vehicle

    I see this as 95% export market so they can keep the slice of the pie they already have. With Spanish, Greek,and Chinese copycats already out there competing for the same $, they need to keep relevant.

    HMMWV rim O rings

    The red o-ring seems to be the current issue and fits most wheels. It is in the 24 bolt even spaced wheels I have. AMG 12460388 Appears to fit most 12 bolt also. HPG lists it as superseding previous ones. https://www.hummerpartsguy.com/O-RING-WHEEL-RED-1650-RIM_p_639.html...

    LOUISIANA PROPOSED NEW LAW : HB 549 Provides for Military Surplus Motor Vehicles

    They do not even understand what that is. All new bill required is basic safety equipment you already have. Windshield, lights, etc. Just use title and register. From what I understand even though bill passed. They will not title or register anything till Jan or when they are ready. Good to...

    Did the supply of M101A2s and 3s dry up??

    It is in Purvis, Ms on Hwy 11 next to Lamar Concrete. I had it in my contacts but I am now a few phones different and does not seem to be on my current phone. He was asking $700-800. I was there a month ago after the Rally at Camp Shelby. Peaked in the yard to see what was still there. All the...

    I know of 15-20 tans ones still parked in the same spot at a local dealer who must have originally had like 50 m116,m105, and m101a2 and was big into scrapping the 5 tons. The way they are parked some have not moved in the 5 years I know him.
