So I've had my truck for a year now, been awesome and I have a couple things to ask you guys. 1. I had a 6.5 injection pump installed... must have been 3 months ago now. I had replaced my glow plugs three days ago, 4 of them weren't working. But I think I'm going crazy or deaf because between...

So I have a 6.5 injection pump on my 6.2, and I plan on replacing my old injectors soon but I don't know which to get, 6.5 or 6.2 injectors... I am mostly worried about EGTs being too high. Is there a danger to adding those 6.5 injectors to my setup? Also what's a good reliable source for new...

Saw on ebay a listing for variable rate springs for a humvee. Anyone know how this affects ride quality? or Do humvees come with these variable rate springs, and would stock linear springs ride smoother?

I've been seeing this all over ebay, google, eastern surplus... right hand door latches labeled as left side. https://www.easternsurplus.net/PartsList/4/HMMWV Anyone else notice this? Just search around and you'll see almost all of them are labeled incorrectly...

Red dot a/c hoses For the hoses from what I understand: From the compressor the high pressure hose runs to the condenser then gets cooled to a high pressure liquid and then it goes to the receiver drier. From there it goes to the evaporator where it expands and cools then leaves the...

How to get up a sand dune with a 6.2 https://youtu.be/367ZFsPWs14

I was changing the oil on my geared hubs after some off roading and as soon as the drain plug came out, I knew something was going to be broken/worn in the hub. Oil came out grey, which as far as I can tell is water mixed in with the oil. In addition to the water oil small amount of metal bits...

So went to get my tires balanced and the mechanic at Les Schwab told be I should replace my wheels because the lug nuts have dug into them that they have bored out part of the tapered edge. He said that they could back off on the highway. The wheel in question has never had any issues with a...

Personally I really don't see the point of putting a large displacement gasoline engine in a humvee, but I would like to know the reasons people do this conversion? I use my humvee mainly for off roading and gasoline engines in that setup just seems like you would be crippling the vehicle...

Decided to post this problem on here, can anyone identify the noise and the problem? Kinda sounds like something is rubbing inside the alternator? Bearing? https://youtu.be/5wjv0KJCG94

So now that I am at higher speeds with the 4l80, the thought of the spindle coming off on the freeway is only more stressful. I know that if I check the spindles nothing should happen, but I still want to find a permanent solution to the problem. I heard that h1s had locking nuts on the...

Just saw a picture on google where someone took the 4th v belt off the very front groove on the 4 groove pulley and threw it on the compressor. Looks like they only had 1 belt on the power steering and two on the alternator. Can this even work? What would this affect? Who's put the condenser...

So I am having my front drive shaft lengthened at a shop, and they said to come pick it up today. Problem is I don't have a vehicle that could carry it, so I would be driving the humvee down there in high lock to pick it up and install it. I've had to drive in 2 wheel drive once before when my...

Consolidating two threads into one for simplicity. 1. Anyone have a good write up on swapping out a spindle? I was looking at the seal replacement in the TMs and it seems like there are some specialty tools involved? Is it that complicated or is it as easy as a half shaft replacement? 2. I...

What pressures are you guys running with stock tires? Is fuel mileage increased at all with higher psi? How about ride quality at high speeds? How does handling change with psi? Now that I'm on the road at 65+ I'm making sure everything is tuned to work its best at those speeds as my truck is...

Okay so I am weighing the usefulness of the DWF for me. I do a lot of 4x4 adventures out in the mountains and I often have to cross small deep 'rivers' (not moving, most of the time). Generally it's a simple in and out as they are not that wide. Most are around 2 ft deep in the middle and...

I have a couple questions, and no these are not the normal ones that can be solved by a manual, I already have the installation instructions. 1. I have the A2 harnesses in and there appears to be a third male connector right by the horn wires. No place for it to plug in, maybe the A2s had this...

I will be storing my humvee for 3 months soon and there will be no one to drive it or operate it for that time. I wanted to see what everyone thinks about what I should do prior to parking the vehicle and leaving. So far I got: Disconnect batteries, chock the wheels, park it in a garage...

Just did a quick inspection of my lower ball joint on my right rear hub and noticed that it has about a 1/16 of an inch of movement in it. Should I go ahead and replace it? Is this dangerous? Also I looked at the tie rod and noticed that the hole in the stud for the retainer clip is way below...

I was going down the road heading home and accidentally hit the curb, felt hard, pulled over checked everything I can possibly think to check and nothing was wrong mechanically. Get back in to get off the road and turn the key to run and immediately the engine starts and the starter motor stays...
