    Is it the end of the world? Latest GP auction prices.

    $35,900 for a M1123 with 50 miles. I paid 7900 7 months ago for the same truck minus the soft top and rear seats. Unbelievable. https://www.govplanet.com/jsp/s/item/6363037?h=345-22,79080&reloadCode=close,6363037,1649261114574

    HMMWV seats or LMTV?

    I found these on eBay after looking for a driver's seat that would recline. Can anyone tell me the truck they came out of? Or does anyone have an option to make the oem commanders seat recline?

    Thoughts on Injection pump rebuilders or remanufactures?

    I tried calling Badger Fuel systems in Wisconsin and the guy was rather rude and said he had no time for 6.5 injection pumps. I did talk to Diesel Care and Performance out of Tennessee and wound up with a DB2381-5209 for $400 remanufactured with 1 year warranty. Has anyone purchased one from...

    HMMWV listed on Copart.

    I buy and sell cars off Copart once in a while and came across this wrecked 1992 M998. I can't believe how tweaked the body is on it! Thought I'd share the pictures.

    A while back I found a cap under my truck. While looking through parts at Amgeneral I found a yoke adjustment kit. Where does this actually go? I've searched and searched.

    Question about picking up mep802a with trailer from GP.

    I posted before that I purchased a 2010 mep802a from GP. I am going to pick up on Tuesday from Sparta, WI. About a 3.5 hour trip. Question is do I need to do anything special if I'm pulling back to Indiana? Bringing extra tire on rim in truck if I need. I'm use to construction trailers where I...

    Plan B supply brush guard brackets.

    This is what I was told was straight brackets. Purchased off eBay, hopefully can get my money back. Is it worth my time to try to heat them up and try to bend back in shape or just buy new ones?

    Airlift bumper install.

    After installing brackets the frame tips stick out about 1/4 inch. Brackets are installed correctly with oval for body bushing. Is this normal. All videos I've seen of installs show them flush with frame.

    HMMWV Seat covers.

    I am looking for replacement seat covers in Green for my M1123. AM General sells complete top and bottom assemblies but I was looking just for the covers. The part numbers I have off my old covers do not come up anywhere. Does anyone have a source for these?

    M1123 Radio mounting rack

    I am looking for the one piece radio mounting rack and all I can find is 12340167. I found one on a auction site but they are asking 180 new. Is there a cheaper way to get a mount maybe like the two piece units. My truck already has the mounting feet installed. Attached is picture of 12340167

    I just bought some soft doors off facebook and the guy has lots of parts from a place that demilitarizes HMMWVS. I was wondering if these doors are worth 5k he's asking for them. Says they are bulletproof. Has two sets. Other pics are some of the other items he has. If anyone wants his...

    Found this under my truck.

    I can't find where this goes. I found it under my laying under front of my truck. Any suggestions? Power steering or trans, as it has pink fluid. Nothing leaking that I see.

    Titling HMMWV in Indiana.

    I've looked through all the topics on Indiana titles but have only found reference to 5 tons and older than 25 year old military trucks. Has anyone applied for a title in Indiana for a HMMWV with just a bill of sale and inspection? Thanks for any help.

    2003 M1123 Power steering refill.

    I've tried reading everywhere about filling of the power steering reservoir. Every TM I've read shows the power steering pump attached to the front of the truck. I unscrewed the top brass fitting and filled to the glass site on side. Is this the correct way to fill it?

    Did GEP 6.5 engines use gaskets for timing cover?

    I've looked everywhere and it seems that the GEP manufactured engines didn't use gaskets for oil pans and timing chain covers, along with valve covers. Is it safe to say I can use high quality RTV just like the factory did? I've always used Permatex the right stuff 90 minute gasket maker on...

    Injection pump won't move when turning crank.

    Nothing moving in injection pump when I turn crank. Could the pump have frozen and chewed the gears off?

    Changing injection pump, how to turn crank?

    I've looked everywhere and can't see how to turn the crank as the serpentine belt has a adapter that bolts on front of crank. Is it safe to bump the starter to move up bolt access? Or is there a special tool that you can move crank with?
