    Fall Ride

    We did around 150 miles today. It was 28 degrees when we left the house and warmed up to mid 60's. We missed the peak for the leaves but had a nice ride with no issues.

    HMMWV Humvee M1123 Build Thread

    Looks great! Did you tie the rear section into the frame somehow?

    Rubber blade wipers

    TNJ Murray, Army Jeep Parts, Rapco. Any of these dealers should have them. Or good 'ol e-bay.

    Timing chain and gears, Commercial equivalent?

    The 151 does not have a timing chain. Just gears.

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Picked up (4) new tires for $250 each. Date codes of '18 & '19 and a NOS cargo cover for the truck for $100. I really wasn't looking for Humvee stuff at the show but based on what I've seen tires sell for, couldn't resist. The cover was pure impulse purchase for that price.

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Drove the Humvee to the Red Ball (Gilbert) show. Normal vehicle ride for me is 2.5 hours. With the MV I did a combination of highway and backroads. I was around 4 hours each way with the 6.2 / 3 speed. Drove the truck around 50mph and it ran excellent. I only took one close up picture of...

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

    Had this issue last night. This was an easy way to remove if one has a welder.

    M151A2 engine surges

    Do you have a vacuum leak? Carefully spray carb cleaner around the intake and see what happens. Was it doing this before the carb rebuild? Float set properly?

    New to the stable M151A2

    Pennsylvania “Military Historic Vehicle” Plates for HMMWV

    I'd recommend an appointment with a knowledgeable notary. Key word is knowledgeable. I have a M221 that I purchased and it was not titled. Had the SF97. Notary took care of it and I have an antique plate. I was offered the MV plates but wasn't interested in the additional cost at the time...

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Took the Humvee and 151 to Tioga Old Home Day parade yesterday. Small town (not even a traffic light) event. Car show was before parade. The motorcycle in the trailer is my father in law's 1919 Harley Davidson. He's probably put over a thousand miles on it this year! Even did the "Tail of...

    MUTT question

    I put around 2,500 miles on my A2 per year. Drive it like you would a short wheel base vehicle and you'll be fine.

    Fuel Tank Condition

    I sealed the tank on my 151 this past February after patching a few bad areas on the bottom. Pretty sure I used KBS brand. I bought the kit - cleaner, prep and seal. Make sure you read the directions and follow them! If not prepped properly, you'll have issues. I had a jig for being able...

    Where to find real CARC?

    The OP wasn't about safety. It was about not being able to find a supplier that would sell to a non business. Some answers were provided as to why. As with anything in life, if you look around long enough, chances are you find what you're after.
