    Newbie Tire Change Help

    I just changed tires over this long weekend. The difference is that the tires I had already came with the run flat inserts. I purchased them mounted, but I decided to take the rims off and send them to get powder coated flat black. One of the things that I did not see here, you need to make sure...

    Tie rod end boots

    I appreciate the input guys. The hummer knowledge base is bookmarked but even though they have a nice comprehensive page for both, there is not a clear cut comparison guide. Currently on refurbishing the suspension before going on to other issues. Thanks again

    Tie rod end boots

    I know this may seem like an obvious question, but is there a comparison between m998 and h1 from a mechanical parts perspective?

    Another EESS Box thread...

    So... I found this where we all try to avoid. Is this the correct setup for the 6.2? It looks like it. I know it was mentioned that perhaps the glow plugs are good but I figured that if they are bound to go out might as well start with all three “new” Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Another EESS Box thread...

    Yeah, I figured it's going to take an s3 box with matching sensor and glow plugs. My only concern is figuring out which version is the better version between Nartron and KDS boxes. Looking at the post here on the progression of the boxes, it looks like the KDS version seems better only because...

    Another EESS Box thread...

    Well, the attempt to repair and replace what seemed to be burned did not work. I think that in order to play it safe I am going to buy a set of glow plugs and this new s3 box. Now the question becomes, where is the best deal for these items? Thanks for all the help guys.

    Another EESS Box thread...

    No, well there is no fording features on it and as far as previous history it's a mystery. I think that when it rained, water that found it's way through the top plug and now I am dealing with replacing it. It's part of the fun of owning a hmmwv I suppose.

    Another EESS Box thread...

    Thank you for the clarification. Yes it looks that way, I should have checked it when I got it but because it was working great I thought it was not getting wet. Also because it hardly rains here, I took its condition for granted. Lesson learned.

    Another EESS Box thread...

    I have been a lurking, reading trying to learn from all of the wealth of information from here about m998s. Long story short, after replacing coolant hoses and thermostat because the temp gauge was not going down from about 220 degrees (it still does not), the glow plug light began to show the...

    Smart start control box

    can you elaborate on the overall experience? what is the reasoning behind installing the timer directly into the box instead of a superare bypass installation. How is it wired to the control box? Will this be a bulletproof fix that will not cause problems in the future? Thanks in advance, I’m a...
