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

    Yes, but actual implementation was 1/19 in the bill. They need to design the plate, produce it, and make the internal procedures on how it is going to work.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    That is a pretty standard ax. You should be able to find it at old school ace hardware or true value stores. They sure ground the heck on the cutting edge. It is normally not that rounded. If you want just a handle- Vaughn 65363...

    Might be an off topic question, But are any new trucks painted 3 color camo straight from factory? It seems everything newer is tan OE from Factory?

    Red Dot AC - Troubleshooting

    20 ft of hose can increase the amount of r134. Are you using an ac manifold gauge set with high and low hoses? You can monitor high side readings with temp charts if you see any increase in pressure but it sounds like you need more refrigerant.

    200 amp alternator question

    That must be an early model is my guess. The latest look different and have a different regulator.

    At last she is arrived.

    That set up for the a/c condenser/fans is totally different than anything I have seen. Some were mounted on high brackets over the canvas top and I have seen some more vertical with different brackets from the floor not from the fender sides. Also the placement through the window is different...

    New from Long Island

    Nice truck and welcome to the madness. Looks like you made a very important safety upgrade to have all matching rims with radials all the same size! Those 8 bolt bias tires are very old.

    At last she is arrived.

    Welcome to the club! Truck looks very nice! I see you have the a/c unit in the back? Can you post more pictures of the unit and how it is mounted as I am thinking of doing the same.

    M998 passenger side parking brake cable replacement "CLIP"

    maybe the clamp and tape act like a bump stop so it can't be pulled off easily. Acts like a sliding mechanical lock. The hmmwv locking brake handles can be easily found. I have seen them range from $50-$100

    M998 passenger side parking brake cable replacement "CLIP"

    That gizmo was the intern solution to the non locking parking brake. Not sure of tape or hose clamp? I bumped my parking brake installing radio trays. Truck rolled backwards even here in flat land. Minor scrape on wife's suv bumper. Very easy to knock forward. Locking parking brake handle is...

    Newbie looking for help on HMMWV research/buying

    Since you are Close to Albany in Ga, Gp is selling later model a2 trucks with 6.5 and 4 speed. Expect to pay a premium but if it is in your price range, you will be starting way ahead. Also if slantbacks is a preference, then those USMC units are the only real source of slantbacks being sold...
