    Best Way To Preserve Rubber?

    Ok - I did a search and nothing came up so here's my question: What do you think the best way to preserve rubber might be for small rubber parts and larger items? We all know that when exposed to light and air rubber will dry out and crack (tires, dashboards, gaskets, seals, etc). I did a...

    Funny Auction Listing

    No specifics here! Found this on GL - they were careful to let you know "No Mutilation Required"... sort of stating the obvious IMHO! :doh:

    What to use as a keyword on GL search...

    Ok - so I've spent some time on GL looking for stuff (boy that site could be better constructed!) - and one big question I've ended up with is: What do I use for a search string? For example: I have found HMMWV parts listed as; hmmwv, hummer, humvee, hummvee, m998, m1025, m1026, etc. etc. etc...

    Anyone got an extra alternator?

    My alternator gave up the ghost... anyone got one that they want to sell? Used but functioning is all I'm interested in. Doesn't have to be new, pretty, or even pretty new! Thanks! Michael

    I couldn't help myself!

    I found and bought this on ebay (commanders control panel from an M1A1) - a little green CARC paint and attach it to my radio shelf - voila... official status as a sci-fi nut!

    Questions - Sure could use some help!

    Ok - we're almost done with the engine replacement but have a few questions before we really put her through the paces... On a 6.2L HMMWV: 1. What is the normal operating temperature for the engine? 2. At what temperature should the fan kick in? 3. What is the best way to test the fan...

    Update on my blown engine

    Well, its been a while since I updated everyone on my 'sploded engine... After killing the newly restored HMMWV back in December I finally tracked down a good 6.2L HMMWV take out about two or three hours away. I offered the guy $200 and he accepted - when we got down there we offered him...

    Identify This Alternator?

    This is the alternator on my HMMWV currently - my mechanic says it is way to big and leaching the horse power. Can anyone tell me what kind of alternator it is and what it might be worth in a trade? Thanks!

    Blew Up My Engine... Need a new one and an Alternator

    Well, I've really done it now :-(... I just finished the resto on my 1026 and proceeded to blow up the engine. So now I need a new one - it had the 6.2L in it, I can either go back with the same or with one of the new ones. Anyone got an engine for sale? If no to the engine, anyone got a 60...

    No More "Ooops" - paint fixed!

    Ok, I'm in the home stretch... here is the M1026 with the paint corrected from the mistake a couple of weeks ago...

    Oops... What happens when... (pics)

    What happens when you aren't there to open the paint with your MV painter? Let's just say that not everyone has actually seen military camo before and doesn't recognize the difference between CARC Tan and CARC Brown. Enjoy!

    How much paint?
