    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I was looking at this but its to big to sit nicely on the radio table and I really wanted this but I couldent justify the $500+ price . So I figured I could make something that would work. I made it easily removable too so I can throw it in anything that needs tunes in it.

    I bought a 1998 Plan B M998 yesterday

    I dont mean any negativity towards the OP with his purchase, but I dont respect plan B supply because they go through great lengths to not disclose to buyers that they get the trucks off of govplanet with the same off road stipulations and they just work their way around "off road only"...

    Geared Hub Markings?

    probably indicating the spindle nut was checked. I know alot of them have initials on the cover from when they where in service so the unit would know who to crucify should the wheel fall off
