Anyone know if it is possible to put in a electronic 0-80 speedo in place of the standard mechanical 0-60 one without replacing the mechanical sender? I heard that you need to take replace the sender and wiring to use the newer 0-80 one. Aren't there adapters that exist ?

So I think I completely understand the removal process except I have gotten stuck on trying to remove the e-brake line. I have taken off the pin holding the small U bracket to the lever, but I can't figure out how to disconnect the cable and the tube it's in from the larger bracket that is...

I was wondering what/where to get the material that is used on the interior of the up armored doors. I'm looking to insulate my x-doors and already have a base layer down. I believe the material is almost the same as the roof liner material in a slantback. The material itself I would...

Any differences? I see the civi gm 4l80 going for a lot cheaper than surplus military ones.

I've seen a couple listings on epay for 6.5TD and 4l80 combos and I know that the 4l80 (1997 and older) are no different than the military ones. Can the civilian 6.5td be placed directly into a humvee and use all the humvee electrical connections? If not, would it be worth the modifications to...

I was looking through the TM's and found the drive shaft parts list but it did not specify whether it was A1 or A2 shafts. Anyone know the NSNs for the longer front shaft and the shorter rear shaft for the 4l80? Also I found a A2 body harness (expensive) and I was wondering if it is possible to...

So previously I had a thumping noise coming from the back left of my m998 only when I was accelerating. I check the geared hub and changed its oil and checked the gears and nothing wrong. Couple weeks later I pull it out of the garage after a few days of no driving, and I take it out and now...

I've gone over the TM's and all the forum posts about the 4l80 swaps, and they simply aren't answering my questions. So first, my vehicle is a m998a1 with the rear caliper parking break and the 242 transfer case along with the 6.2 na, 3 speed. I know that this changes some things so I'd like...

Can you put a hummer h1's 6.5td and 4l80e into a humvee? I know that some other components are different between the hummer and humvee, like the transfer case, but would a hummers engine and tranny bolt right into a humvee? I already have the 242 tc

I've been looking around for a the tube that mounts to the sponsons that supports the ring for a slantback, but I can't find any of the old style tubes, does anyone know if the m1114 tube will work in a slantback upgrade for a m998? Or does anyone know where to get the older tube? Older style...

So I'm working on an air conditioning upgrade using the standard compressor mounting location and the condenser mounted on the radiators, but for the life of me I cannot find a compressor pulley that is for a v belt config. The compressor I bought had a serpentine pulley, but I rather not...

I saw on a 3l80 to 4l80e swap writeup and someone said that only A0s have the 218 transfer case. The document also said that if you have a A1 or A2 humvee you already have the 218. I'm probably going to do the swap eventually but right now I'm just compiling a parts list and their prices, so...

I was looking through the Part TMs, specifically the slantback portion since I am trying to put together a slantback and wanted to know what hardware to try and find. First thing I see is the million thousand little peices that are needed, and then I am seeing things that aren't bolts, which...

So I'm hearing more and more about people driving at 65 mph on freeways. I have started driving at 60 mph now and the rpm gauge (I have the windshield mounted one, runs off the alternator) and I'm almost at 3400 rpm at ~61 mph. So is the red line of the engine not 3400?

So I have the condenser and compressor installed in my 94 M998A1 and I'm looking at converting it to a slantback soon and I heard that its easiest to use the dash a/c kit since the windshield frame doesnt have defroster vents. I did some initial digging and I cannot find any anywhere (including...

So I'm thinking of adding a winch to my vehicle but my main reservation about it is that it would compromise the approach angle. I already have decided against the airlift bumper as it severely decreases the departure angle. Does the original military A2 winch compromise the approach angle? If...

Here we go again. So for the tire problem I had Les Schwab 'check their work' and would you look at that! They never balanced them after replacing the old tires... but that didn't fix the problem. Run flats are secure and tire is balanced. Symptoms: Thumping sound that increasing frequency with...

What kind of engine life/engine wear do you run into when running a humvee above the maximum sustainable rpm (2850)? For example, what kind of damage is done if I drive at like 62 mph for 30 minutes?

Does anyone know where to get the textured insulation that's used in the slant back roofs on armored humvees? Here's some pictures:

So the main support structure of the slantback roof is the turret support ring that connect to the windshield frame, b pillar and the sponsons. so far I have only found one website that sells that support and they are asking 1700 for the little piece of metal; so I was wondering if anyone knew...
