    Gun racks in the humvee

    Got all 4 mounts and soon will install. Thanks for all the help and info. I did end up buying a replica M16a1 (pretty nice) and will mostly likely buy one more replica and place both in the back (for MAX visibility) and then I will get 2 airsoft M16A1's just to off set the cost a bit (I know I...

    Gun racks in the humvee

    Got it. Currently i have no gun mounts in the truck. I bought the two front mounts and the rear mounts are on the way. I do have a 6.5 GEP but its married to the standard TH 400 3speed. I'm just looking to get these mounts installed in the correct/original locations and place some M16A1...

    Gun racks in the humvee

    Just seen your Gun mounts juanprado, looking good but are your sure the mounts for the but stock goes that far back? I thought the rifle would sit more vertical? Also Did you buy the high priced M16 replicas for your humvee? I was thinking about buying 4 AirSoft Rifles for mine, i mean this new...

    Gun racks in the humvee

    Hello. I have just bought all four of these mounts. can't really see how its bolted to the floor in the one picture (its to dark) also how is the back held in place? I see the mount for the butt stock but thats it. Also the M16A1 is the native gun for the humvee and these mounts?

    Engine noise on morning start ups! HMMWV 6.5 GEP

    Yeah i just start it and wait i don't drive my rig until its warmed up and about 30 secs ( Give or take) It sounds like a normal diesel. The oil gauge comes up right away and it seems to clam down but don't know if thats just a coincidence? I'm from the old school and so i thought if the noise...

    Engine noise on morning start ups! HMMWV 6.5 GEP

    Thanks for the info. It sure does sound like heck! But this goes away in about 30 Secs, as soon as the oil gauge comes up to 60psi.

    Engine noise on morning start ups! HMMWV 6.5 GEP

    Hello. I should know this answer but I'm going to throw the question out there anyways. In the mornings my Rig Makes a pretty good noise and then it goes away after about 30 secs. The noise sounds like a machine gun or a maybe a fast knock then it goes away and she is fine all day until the next...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Wow! You got that pretty cheap! Apparently I got screwed on ePAY. I bought mine for $200. Nevertheless, they work really good. I took off all four tires and reinstalled them and the humvee still started with no issues. No dead batteries.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Thank you. Yes the M101A3 is really hard to get even in wisconsin, and just to think, I was thinking about trading it for the Humvee trailer (M1102) but I'm pretty sure that would be a mistake? This M101A3 is a real trailer. She's all steel and really tuff! It's 1Ton Chassis with the 3/4 Ton box...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    kicking around the idea of mounting a rear camera on the humvee. Any opinions? I was able to design a bracket that allowed me to mount the camera without putting holes in the soft top.
