Hi,
Got my M1097A2 from the yard and saw that I don't have the brake line to the right rear (passenger rear).

Thank you!
Hi all,
brand new to this, didn't even expect to win the bid but here I am.
Couple of quick things.
First, can I temporarily wire in a switch for the fan heater, this is missing and I will need to run the fan to make sure the coolant is getting circulated (from what I understand).
Also...
Just won a HMMWV on govplanet. Didn’t really expect to win but…
I knew that the inspection stated that it didn’t start, but then I noticed in a pic that (from what I can see) the fuel filter is disconnected?
