Hi folks,
I haven't managed to find instructions nor photos of what it should look like. I bought a box full of nets that includes 3 sponson nets and since I'm preparing the slantback for a road trip I'll use the opportunity to load wrapped tools on the sponsons.
Anyone has a clean picture?
I...
Hi folks,
I'm been traveling quite a bit for the past couple months therefore I haven't driven nor worked on my trucks much and I've been silent on this forum... I'm about to take off again for another mission and wanted to share the funny experience I just got today.
Day off, spent time with my...
Hi folks,
Tonight I was checking the suspension on the M1123 (on which I have not really worked yet so it's still a discovery) and I saw 5 tags hanging here and there such as this "KD 07" for instance:
Anyone knows what they mean?
thanks!
Hi folks,
So the regulator on my A2 is acting funny with inconsistent voltage from 22 to 28v and the 12V stage is simply dead.
Since I don't use and don't plan to use the 12V circuit is it ok to simply ignore it or are there 12V devices I'm not aware of that need the regulated 12V channel?

Hi folks,
I think I know why the engine on this humvee was replaced. By the way sanding the hood there is a marking using usual military stencil "engine rotated" followed by something else.
Would "rotated" mean changed or something like that?
this isn't rust obviously because it's aluminum...
Hi folks,
I'm still really new to humvee world as an owner however I've been thinking about this project for a while: placing a large industrial touch monitor (HMI) above the dog house and connect it to the vitals of the vehicle through an industrial controller (because they already run...
Hello folks,
Of course, I started with a couple searches over all the MTs I have downloaded and couldn't find it. There's a bunch of kits that are labelled 57K-xxx but no such connector.
I searched through forums, unsuccessfully because the search engine says it's too short of a keyword for a...
Hi all,
I wanted to move my M1043 (M1114 engine and tranny) to work on it today and for the first time it couldn't start, while it cranked and started within a second a couple days ago.
First attempt:
Move the switch to Run, wait for glow plug (wait) light to run off which happens as usual...
Hi all,
I'm new to this community and to Humvees and happy to exchange!
Few months ago I got this M1043 that was matching my requirements - even more as there's a surprise on the engine side.
It's nicknamed Honey Badger and is said to have been deployed in middle east though I never really...
Hello folks,
After a few months of finding tech tips on this forum using internet search, I thought it would be fair to take part of this community and I hope to give back a bit, documenting future work on my military trucks.
I live in North California and I'm the happy owner of 3 cool trucks...
