    Is it the end of the world? Latest GP auction prices.

    and we will see more Army trucks leaking out......Be patient and things will normalize when those start to flood the market then slowly creep up as the supply dries up again like with the m35's and m939's. All about supply and demand.

    hmmwv demil code changed

    Just curious as I do not know specifics but I thought all unarmored hmmwv's were ok to sell? Or is just the USMC that did their own thing with the later models. What models will be realeased? Is this Army, USAF, and USN units?

    Anyone in New Jersey want 2 cheap M103 trailers?

    Nothing to cage, no brake chambers. At most just open drain petcock on air tank to drain.

    Stripped Geared Hub Drain Plug...good extraction methods?

    So what is it that causes so many of these to stick? Rust due to water? Seems like threads if sealed with pipe thread compound would be ok. Does the oe nor military goop plugs?

    Bought used M1102 trailer, (was) missing serial or VIN.

    You can always purchase a nos data plate and stamp it or have one made

    Can a bad Glow Plug box stop your alternator from charging?

    Make sure batteries are fully charged and load test each one before any troubleshooting.

    Guess what it sold for at auction!

    If you saw the prices for the very first M998's that sold when they were allowed again in the $30-40K range. Not slantbacks nor X doors. Just plain Jane ... but those folks wanted to be the first to own one after the USMC units had leaked out 10 years earlier.

    New HMMWV owner

    My .02 is the BFG bajas ride softer and are from a proven model of tire with years of track record. Goodyear's change models and their lineup constantly. Ymmv

    Sources/options and types of 12V wiper and heater fan motors…

    That blower motor does not look special in any way but when you see a retail of $150 for a $30 part that is nuts. This pic has a part number and mfg looks like hunter? maybe you can get the pic cleaned up and zoom in. Someone makes this motor for universal applications and you can always have...

    HMMWV (not H1) Helical Hubs oil level

    Yes, That is what I would call the remote resovoir. Might have a different official name. Interesting that they did not tie that line into the others as done previously with the fording kit instead of running a seperate vent to the intake stack?

    New Orleans Air Show March 19-20 MINI SS La Rally

    On fri they do a mini VIP and Corp sponsor show not open to public. Wind definitely was kicking sat. The US Army Parachute demo was probably having a challenging time. The air speed streamers they dropped from the Huey drifted way far from the runway. Better on Sunday.

    HMMWV (not H1) Helical Hubs oil level

    The hard line on the intake is for the fording kit. The gm Saginaw pump takes a new cap with a nipple for the vent tubing on the fording kit but that is for the older models. You must have the remote reservoir pump? If so that might explain the additional line.

    New Orleans Air Show March 19-20 MINI SS La Rally

    One of the coolest flights was a WWII F4 corsair being escorted on a victory lap by F35's. On Sat it was one on one. On Sunday they had 2 F35's. I had never seen the F35's previously at an air show. They also did several flight Demos and showed off their capabilities. They were from Hill AFB in Ut

    Navy VFA-204 squadron "River Rattlers" is an all reserve top notch squadron ( I understand one of the best any where) that is the main defense force for this part of the gulf and surrounding area. They are a 24/7 ready alert status with birds on tarmac always hot. Notice the distinctive Russian...
