    Went and did it again…

    Many of us are in the same boat. I bought another one today to complete my M1151A1. It is addicting.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Also, registered my new to me trailer and 1151A1. The truck was a bit of an issue as there is another 1958 car registered in another state with the same VIN and a trailer in FL as well.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Test fit the doors i bought from Austin @beltfed, great guy to buy from. I have to remove all the hardware and brackets, remake or buy some bracket parts and work on the doors for a smoother finish and a coupme of cracks. I have to figure out the gap on the rear doors and C pillar. Other than...

    My generator pulley clutch just crapped out. Was trying to find out how to replace just the clutch but ended up replacing the whole thing. What a pain.

    Hydrolocked, big repair ahead.

    Decided to replace the generator with my spare one. Will deal with the pulley clutch later on. What a pain to replace this one person and no engine lift or hoist.

    Hydrolocked, big repair ahead.

    Wellll, i found the culprit. The generator (alternator) clutch is spinning free both directions. Now not charching and probably was getting bad. Any good way or source parts to rebuild this section? I have another good generator but would prefer to fix this one mounted vs dealing with replacing...

    I dont trust my oel pressure display

    Hydrolocked, big repair ahead.

    I don't think so. As soon as i put a new belt the squal foes away for quite some time.

    Hydrolocked, big repair ahead.

    is there any reason why the serpentine belt (MSN 3030-01-524-2460, RD-5-11792-0) is squeaking at less than 3k miles? when i installed this engine, i made sure to installa new belt at 22 miles, at around 2,500 miles i repalced the belt because of this symptom and now at around 4500 miles it is...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Replaced my power steering fluid as i got water into the system. Fort lauderdale, FL was floded and access to my house was floded to around 37" all other fluids were good but i replaced anyway.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Did you polish it or bought new lenses? I bought the whole lens assembly cover (don't really remember from who) and i have water intrusion on it.

    Hard Start Only On Cold Start

    Did you hook up your starter as a 12V by chance? Possible and makes a weird noise. Not enough juice to start properly unless the engine is hot. Worth to check.

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Yes i do. You noticed because of the hidden airlift thing under the hood right?

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

The coolest part is that a friend on achat group posted the same teuck 45 minutes earlier about 50...
