    Wheels spinning on unlevel ground

    You have to learn to LEFT FOOT brake............it's odd in an automatic but I've done it all my life so it was not a problem. I learned that if i'm slow releasing the brake when starting to make a turn I could get tire scrub and squealing until it straightened out. As the post have pointed...

    Who can guess the winning BID?

    I'm sorry if you took it so harshly, I didn't mention "collusion" just up coming auctions. I do believe I remember people getting their knuckles rapped for "any" discussions of pending auction in the past. Of course I have cobwebs...........

    Who can guess the winning BID?

    Somewhere buried in the cobwebs I think I remember we were not to speak of such things as upcoming auctions............... right mister moderator???

    Truck was cutting off.... Not anymore

    I suggest you pull the fuel sender and have a peek inside the tank. If not you're going to need more fuel filters. My 2 cents.

    Hutchinson Run Flat Lubricant

    I hereby nominate"ANYONE" to lube up 4 tires with "synthetic" grease (about $10 a tube) and report back when the tires come off as to the condition. It's all for the team! I would do it but my back refuses to participate.

    HMMWV 6.5 Lift Pump Life

    You could....... civy pumps have a simple vent hole......... get it in deep enough water and you can get water into the atmosphere side of the pump....... run a hose off the military pump vent tube up behind the air cleaner with its own termination separates it from the system , diesel fuel...

    HMMWV 6.5 Lift Pump Life

    I rerouted mine. I get it in deep water occasionally.

    HMMWV 6.5 Lift Pump Life

    I might add..... while one is messing with the pump it might be a good time to separate the vent hose for the pump from the vehicles system.... why?.... when it does leak it will not dump fuel into the hubs and diffs to ruin your day. My 2 cents.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Muriatic acid will clean it right up........... NOT FOR THE ACCIDENT PRONE TYPES!!! clean up and dilute with plenty of baking soda....... keep a 5 gallon pail mixed up first for first aid. Its nasty stuff but works wonders. A heavy piece of plastic to pool the piece in works, when through...

    M998 LOWER REAR BALL JOINTS LUBE

    IF I'M WRONG someone will chime in for sure, BUT all the ball joints have a grease fitting. I would look again if I was you! I think someone didn't screw the zerk in or it "fell out". My trucks all have zerks on ALL the ball joints.

    HMMWV Texas Title Info

    I think what you are quoting here is in reference to commercial trucks. They can be plated across a wide weight range. This allows the enforcement officer to have a truck replatted at a higher weight$$$$ than is indicated on his registration and plate if the truck is caught overweight. This is...

    Oil filler neck removal

    Remove the right inner splash panel to get to the tensioner to loosen the belt. The back side of the balancer has 3 or 4 large bosses that a wrench fits on to easaly rotate the engine.

    New Goodyear Wrangler MTs appear to be available again

    In the true spirit of I don't know any better I believe I would start looking at the local construction and supply companies to scrounge up a piece of pipe and make these myself!
