    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!

    M1152 leaking power steering fluid - steering gear or hydroboost?

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

    400A Alternator No charge vs overcharge??? Advice appreciated!

    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!

    400A Alternator No charge vs overcharge??? Advice appreciated!

    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...

    I don't really have control of the logistics, I paid for shipping via VeriTread 4 months ago. Congrats on finally getting your EUC! Glad the wait is finally over.

    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...
