Umm, no. Still very much in business. http://www.amgeneral.com/news-events/news/am-general-awarded-over-151-million-for-domestic-and-international-hmmwv-sales-and-service/

Yeah, what they mean was any use on the commercial market, be it private use or anything else. If you want to call AM Generals legal counsel and ask they will clarify it for you. They have in the past for many people, including state DMV officials.

For paperwork, here is the first hurdle you all face. The MANUFACTURER of the vehicle is on record saying that the vehicle is not made or intended for commercial use on public roads and highways and that any issued registrations should be recalled. When the actual maker of the vehicle tells...

Yeah, I hate to bust your bubble but you didn't buy from someone who buys "direct from the government". There is no such thing. You bought from one of the many BS artist flippers who buy from GP and then resell without processing the paperwork to get a title so they can avoid the cost...

This is the one I use.

5x5.5, big center, same wheel as an M38/38A1 Jeep

Much of this traces its origins to the fact that AM General got their panties in a wad when the first surplus trucks were sold in the 1990's and sent a letter to every states DMV stating that the military HMMWV series vehicles were never made to meet federal safety standards and were never...

I have had really, really good service from Tractor Supply's Traveler house brand oil in 15w40. I use it in pretty much everything, and when I started had oil analysis done on my CUCV at 5k, 10k, and 15k for two change cycles and it was still good at 15k both times, these days I just change at...

Haha I didn't even notice that. Someone making listing copied and pasted the wrong stuff.

Just spray it on, it has a flushing action then dries fast. Unless I see gunk that has to be physically removed that is all it takes. If it is a connection that has issues getting a good connection I use Stabilant 22 after. That stuff is like voodoo for fixing issues on electrical connections...

More and more problems with our hobby are created by shady and unscrupulous flippers who buy trucks and never title them and then pass them off to unsuspecting buyers either with an SF-97 that is worthless because it is not in their name or a bill of sale only that is worthless in most states...

I have been chasing an intermittent ground or power fault all winter. Last night I went with the shotgun approach and took loose every single electrical connection I could find under the dash, behind the dash and on the firewall and sprayed them all with Dexoit. That stuff is pricey but great...

Contact DLA and ask them what their records reflect as to how the SF-97 reads. SF-97's are serial numbered and controlled documents and a record of every one issued is kept by the issuing authority. Quite literally a person issuing SF-97's signs for the blank forms with the serial #'s logged and...

Me either. But, I have had this same one in my CJ7 for a while and it works perfectly there, so I went with the same thing for my M1028.

I installed this sound system designed for motorcycles. I get all my audio off my phone and have just been using headphones when I drive my M1028 for years, but now my phone hooks in and I get good audio for everyone. It is all tucked up under the dash so nothing changes the look.

Very few strippers will affect CARC. The military test to see if a truck was painted with CARC or not was to wipe it with a rage with paint thinner on it and if paint comes off it is not CARC. Use regular thinner or acetone and it won't affect the CARC at all. There are environmentally...

Actually, those ones from the East Coast/West Coast auctions in the 90's all came with off road only SF-97's also. People have just laundered the titles between now and then to get them on the road.

Not legally. Unless you have an amateur radio license. done outside the law at best you can get a half-assed solution. Any handheld will be tuning a more narrow bandwidth FM so the 77 will way overmodulate for the handheld and the audio on the handheld will be low. The squelch on the 77 uses a...

Take a setup like this one. Or this one. And mount it in an 40mm ammo can. Use surface mounted Anderson Powerpoles in the side of the box to run power in. Then you can have a more rugged and weather resistant setup that you can quickly disconnect power from and remove when you need to take...

Yes.
