mines a m998

last year i removed the "wiring shields" by the rear lights to do some repairs to the wiring. this year i goto put them back on..and yes..have no clue how to route the wires through them. can any one post a photo of how these go back on correctly, and the correct wire routing. guess i should...

was putting new belts on my 1986 m998 the other day, and one of the bolts was a 16mm. it fell off the ratchet near the power steering pump, to never been seen again. ive spent several hours looking everywhere i can see, and no sign of this socket. it never hit the ground... even tried the old...

i have a 1986 m998, with a 6.5 2004 engine. while looking a socket that vanished a while back, i found the rear lower alternator bolt was laying on the frame rail. it had sheared off in the bracket. the alternator is a 60 amp unit, and it's set up with the 4 belt config..2 for the power...

Can someone be kind and take some good photo's of the speedometer routing for the m998 (unmolested and where it should be), the joker that had the one I bought, had a habit of not putting things back together (lost count of how many missing bolts). Some pics from where it goes from the firewal...

Right in the middle, is those two sliders to shut off air flow to the driver/passenger, in that metal channel. One of the sliders is stuck, (thinking paint got in there), is it possible to get at those sliders easily , i have yet to figure out how to remove the metal duct to get at them? thanks all

try progressive, that's what I use, even got a discount for a "anti-theft" device (cable and padlock). $200 ish every six months for a m1009 and the m998 both 1986 models

thanks all, i couldnt figure out why it would need a sensor for the engine speed..the diag deal makes sense thanks again everyone

I just bought a 1986 hmmwv, completely stock. Im slowly learning about the vehicle, but one item has me wondering, on the back of the engine right by the bellhousing where the vac pump would be on a cucv, there is a sensor of some kind. Can someone tell me what it does?

yes, unbolt the pod, and it will bolt right up to the stalk from the 6.2's those actually work better than the stock ones, since they pump on both strokes, not one as the stock ones do the output nipple is also angled to the side a bit, which helps clear the air cleaner better also, all in...

Cool, someone else had the same idea also...hey chevy..hint hint :) would have been a great factory thing to do

Another idea someone may find useful, behind the spare tire, was a lot of wasted space, made a little "shelf" that bolted to the larger bolts holding down the tire carrier, one on the wheel tub and one on the floor. The jack is a 1.5 ton floor jack, small but enough to use to change a tire. it...

This worked out very well, I took your standard 4 way, welded on a "stop" bar and a old shock metal busing to the 4 way. Got a long bolt and a coupler, makes the perfect place to store your tire iron, to remove, just unscrew it, the pressure against the tire keeps it from turning, with a...

Here is a photo of the setup
