    Step in the right direction but why can they not be used on interstate? Not a perfect solution.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Typically transported in custom large hardigg/pelican type cases with inserts to hold them. I have seen a few pop up on the auction sites but do not recall any stenciling or data plates/sticker.

    scored a water buffalo at a city auction

    Nice Score! Definitely a water buffalo most likely a M149. That lid and seal would not work with diesel and that tank is not vented. The critter to the left is a fuel pod. They probably just mixed up the listing details.

It does not give more info in that regards. The fact that the catalog shows it primarily for engine...

    Help with rear hydraulic winch

    I was successful ordering parts from them. I used the mile marker part numbers for the items I needed which are in the install manuals instead of nsn or military part numbers. Not sure if those tubes are listed separately in the front mm manual. It seemed to make the process easier. I had to...

    Juan's M998 HMMWV

    Not sure as I do not know how to test nor do I have a real radio..... But I do suspect it works as it was left on a gp truck and it had lots of cabling and looked like a comm truck with dual mid antenna towers ( on the project list :-) ) and rear mounts. Surprised it went with the truck and the...
