In all my prodding around this site, I always thought that modification was done solely to be able to see the mirror through the smaller port window in an armored HMMWV. I hadn't thought about it reducing a major blind spot, which I'm always looking like a parakeet as I move around in the truck...

Anybody have some interest in sharing some booth space? I've got some large antenna masts, antenna sections (AS-3900, AT-1729), headsets (VIC-1-related), radio components (Harris HF), complete radios (VIC-12-era), HMMWV parts, and all sorts of other odd things.... I've got enough stuff to get...

The brake switch is notorious for dropping out of adjustment and not being triggered correctly. Had it happen on my HMMWV while it sat for a few months without any use. Hit up the Technical Manual for a good guide on how to adjust the brake pedal switch. While you're reading through...

I just discovered recently that there was an industry-shift to use the separate terms "wireless" and "wire-free." Wireless means wireless data communication, but external power is needed. Wire-free means wireless data communication and self-contained power (battery, solar, etc). Industry...

They keep all the best roads to their selves!

I had mine rebuilt just the same as Andy from the same place. I sent in my core unit and got back a totally overhauled unit with the 6.5L specs I requested instead of the 6.2L specs. I just gave them the part number and they did a perfect job for such a great price. Sent from my Nokia 6.1 using...

I picked up all my Packard connectors at Erik's Military surplus. Best price for a reasonable quantity of connectors. Getting the right crimp tool is a lot more difficult... There's a guy in the classifieds selling a variety of crimp tools and parts. He has a crimper that does nothing but crimp...

I've lowered/raised them about 3 times now. I've found that taking them down as a pair seems to be easier overall, so long as you can secure it to your jack safely. It's a bit of a burden to loosen the six fasteners holding the transfercase to the transmission while it's installed in the...

I second what Bulldogger says. Look at ways to disable your HMMWV rather than trying to keep people out of it. Only way to "secure" your HMMWV from intrusion would be to get hard doors all around, replace the latches with all locking latches (aftermarket add-on), and ensure that you have a...

Digging through your post history, it looks like you have 24-bolt rims. These should be the o-rings you need: https://www.hummerpartsguy.com/O-RING-WHEEL-RED-1650-RIM-2ND-GEN_p_639.html

IN (...and just like that, I'm officially a supporter. Y'all have me supported me for long enough, so it's due.)

Next time you mess with that hose, install the quick detach coupler. You'll be praising yourself for that official mod every time you look at it. Makes it possible to quickly disconnect the clutch without losing any fluid or needing to bleed the system. Sent from my Nokia 6.1 using Tapatalk

Found a little more info! I've attached this Marine instruction course manual covering some radio use. In the component list of the PRC-117F, it mentions a modified H-250, which "has been manufactured to use no metallic parts to reduce the risk of electric shock." I believe in other documents it...

I've taken some photos, but it doesn't show too much. Summary: Different connector shell Different strain relief on cable Different PTT (no exposed metal) Smaller speaker holes This page is a different manufacturer of the same NSN...

At the very least, I know the connector is different. It has a black, more easily oriented connector, instead of the standard U-229. I own both, so I'll see about making some comparisons. Sent from my Nokia 6.1 using Tapatalk

I mounted my panel to the hood in front of the air intake. It will flex just a little small amount to match the hood curve, so I applied RTV to the back of the panel, pressed it in place, then put heavy blocks on it overnight until it fully setup. It's rock solid and I was happy to not have more...

I know I shouldn't be laughing, but I'm so tickled that all of us assumed that because the light was on, the electrical system was defective. The reality is...it was perfectly functioning to tell us that the brakes weren't working correctly. Sometimes we have to laugh at our own assumptions...

That's exactly what I needed to help. This is a dome light out of an M1008/M1008A1. Check out TM 9-2320-289-34P. (https://www.liberatedmanuals.com/TM-9-2320-289-34P.pdf) Flip to page 269 & 269-1 (or by the electronic page numbers, 613-614). You'll see your dome light is item #3.

Mine makes plenty of noise. I definitely hear it over the engine and road noise, but it definitely makes the tone you describe. I like to call mine a "meeper." It's very soft-sounding, but plenty of volume to alert vehicles around me. There might be a difference in the condition of our...

Now you're just making those eBay peddlers look bad. I like it. Keep up the good work. [emoji38] Sent from my Nokia 6.1 using Tapatalk
