    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Haha 🤣 Side panels are aluminum, barrel is real, the T&E and pintle are real. Everything else is 3D printed plastic. The side plates are made substantially different than a real gun, so that they cannot be assembled with real M2HB parts and make a functional gun. I'm considering selling these...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Hmm, what about the 3.5 ton scissor jack, have you had issues with that? Asking because I just bought one.

    Power Steering Pump Options?

    True, but it might not matter. The pump is really screaming at 3000+ RPM. Maybe lower RPM would even reduce wear. Even a 20% reduction would make it quieter and probably not have a noticable impact on performance.

    Power Steering Pump Options?

    What about a larger power steering pump pulley to slow down the RPM's?

    Power Steering Pump Options?

    So just for the heck of it I added some LubeGard ATF protectant in the power steering reservoir (its Dex III compatible and adds lubricity without affecting viscosity). I've read that others have had good success using it with power steering systems that use ATF. Anyway, it maybe slightly...

    Power Steering Pump Options?

    If you figure out how to soundproof the pump, let us know.

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Point taken, but for context: I've done it twice ever outside of parades. It's a small town and many of the cops know me (I do work for local police and fire companies).

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    I don't do it often, usually only during parades. But when I do, no one is allowed in the turret/touching the gun, which is not loaded, and I'm complying with all state/local/federal laws.

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Decided to mount up the dummy 50 cal (even though its not finished) and went to the beer distributor. Got quite the attention lol. Also took my son to the park for a bike ride. Edit: and made a new avatar!

    Help Identifying Noises on HMMWV

    Thanks. When I originally got the truck (auction truck) it was low. I fixed a leak, topped off and bled the system using some generic dexron III. Do you think there is any benefit to swapping the fluid to something like Red Line D4 (which complies with Dexron III)? I figure using a higher...

    More 50 cal progress. This counts as hmmwv related right? I'm not building it to go on my Prius 🤣

    Paint - CARC

    Yes, if you make enough phone calls you can get it. Just make sure you have a REALLY good respirator and know how to use it.
