    Looking for cable to connect remote to HEMTT M977 Crane

    Does anyone know a part number or where to get the cable that goes from the remote to the crane on a M977 HEMTT? The cable would be a 14 pin female. I have attached a picture of the port on the crane and remote

    DUKW Crash Fatalities

    No offence but you obviously do not own a DUKW and you have no right to call me untruthful! Both of my DUKW's have been California Highway Patrol inspected along with registered with the California DMV as 1942 GMC's. At no point was I untruthful with the DMV or hid anything as they saw the...

    DUKW Crash Fatalities

    I doubt and hope that the collectors are not required to update the axels. The tour DUKW's probably put more miles on their DUKW's then I do in 5 years. As far as my insurance and title is concerned they are 1942 GMC's nothing that identify s them as a DUKW. Also the tour DUKW's are a extreme...

    DUKW Crash Fatalities

    sound like a mechanical failure on the front end. Definitely a bad deal for the tour DUKW industry.

    M977 HEMTT Acquisition

    Or once you have to fill it up. I do agree the M977A2 is the most fun to drive but 2 miles to the gallon compared to 8 for the M923A2 you feel it at the pumps.

    The HEMTT is on the way!

    Check your elbows and valve stems. My tires were going flat within a few days and that was the fix for mine.

    HMMWV impounded

    You may want to do your reaserch before you open your trap. It was being titled only not registered, so you can go insert your foot now.

    Has anyone used there M923A2 for the Ca DMV "B" lic road test?

    I tried taking my test in my M931 and they immediately turned me away stating it was not a commercial vehicle with historic plates. I ended up taking a few hours of class at Dootsan and using there truck for the test.

    I have titled and registered 3 DUKW's and everyone I know has them titled as well. I have one in the classifieds with a clean California title for sale.

    M Series Door Latch Repair

    **** I wish I saw this two years ago. My door latch on the m923a2 has had this problem since a show two years ago. I literally just walked out side did the fix, put it back together in less then 20 minutes and my outside door handle works again. Thank you majortom![thumbzup]

    Black Soft Tops

    The civilian Hummers have a completely different attachment process. Civilian hummers use velcro and military use the quarter turn fastners. It would be a fraction of the cost to dye / paint a green top.

    Hemtt purchase

    They drive great just like a big honda. Switching between the LVS and HEMTT is the hard part because the HEMTT has a lot larger turning radius and the LVS is just odd pivoting in the middle. I just put 130 miles on my m977A2 last weekend and it drove very nice and tracked well with no weird quirks
