    GoDove HMMWV GMV, Anyone get EUC?

    Well done, Lionel! CruizinZ28, I'm looking forward to seeing your pics. All these trucks are going to have different bolt holes and rivet nuts set into the cargo floor and wheelhouses, due to the myriad of ammo can racks, brackets and other parts installed by the individual ODAs to suit...

    Colorado Bill SB19-054 RE: (Former) Military Vehicle Motor Vehicle Regulation

    Bad Bill for Title Military Surplus Off Road Moves to Virginia Senate

    When you let the Government dictate how, where and how long you may use your own legally purchased property, they you don't really own it anymore. We all know these trucks are built tougher than most of the hybrids and other vehicles on the lots today. So what, it didn't come from the factory...

    M998 custom A/C setup

    I asked them about the 24v kit, Coldmasterinc recommended the 22,000 BTU kit said the 13,000 BTU kit wouldn't cool the 4 man cab enough. https://www.ebay.com/itm/A-C-KIT-UNIVERSAL-REDDOT-EVAPORATOR-R-2400-0-25-000-BTU-24V-HUMVEES-UNI-HARNESS/283075013171?hash=item41e895ea33:g:YhEAAOSwGDZbW0p2...

    If you don't have to stick to original GI issue seats, then you can buy more comfortable for much less money.

    Geared Hub Maintenance Questions

    Transmission removal with or without trans case

    Do you have to drain the transmission before you unbolt it from the engine? What about draining the transfer before removing it from the transmission? I need to make room in my garage for hurricane season and the 6.5l GEP-T is taking up the most space. I want to put the 6.5l on an engine...

    GoDove HMMWV GMV, Anyone get EUC?

    Cobra-3-8, you are the third I've heard got their refund already. I was first to pay back in November and I still haven't received anything. First to pay, last to get paid back. At least they haven't run another auction yet.

    Looking for members that live around Ft. Campbell

    Try posting in the LMTV/FMTV specific section for troubleshooting help. Many folks don't bother to stray outside the specific vehicle areas they are interested in.

    998 side mount machine gun mount

    Do you just want center to center lengths? Some of the earlier/non-MSG mfg swing arms were made from solid round bar at the ends of round tubing. Unless you have a mill to make the dogbone shape.
