    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I did have to remove the 2 rear bolts and pushed the starter to the side for installation. I used a new felpro seal in the rear but made the gasket from black RTV as it came from the factory. Got an aluminum radiator installed and found cheap AGM batteries with a 4 year warranty.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Thanks for the advice, definitely putting all new rubber while I've got it stripped down. Your rig is awesome, love the setup. I have all 2 seat variants and haven't gotten to the point of upgrading yet.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Picked up a 2003 1097 with 42 original miles, which I hope doesn't turn around to bite me. A forklift operator was kind enough to dent the oil pan right under the pickup so my first order of business was replacing the pan. Next step is to install a radiator and see if this thing runs!

    That's awesome advice. I'll do that tonight and see. A lot safer than being underneath while my wife is pumping brakes/steering!

    Thanks for your help, definitely considering a swap to a more affordable/accessible 24v alternative. I'll double check the voltage on wire #5. Thanks again!

    I recently acquired a 2013 M1152 from GovPlanet and got it running and driving again, however it has a 400A alternator with a no charge situation. Voltage across the batteries is reading 24.5v (each battery is at 12.3v with engine off) while engine is running or not, volt meter gauge is showing...

    Just picked up a M923A2 - http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=8985753 - and didn't realize I won't need to fill out an EUC and wait for it to process. Originally I figured I could obtain my CDL before the paperwork was processed but now it's looking like the truck has to be...
