Veterans Day parade. Meeting at Ace Cafe at 0930. After parade display at Ace Cafe. Should be an all day event.
Show up if you can. As long as my 923 is not mad at me I’ll be there. Look for my truck and say hi.

Suzukovich, there are a lot of events in your area. Check the FLMVPA site and have a look at the calendar. Seams like there are events quite often. A bit far for me but I have doin west coast events before.

Should work, I’m not familiar with 2.5’s if you have a hard too just attach at front with the J hooks and it fits snug in Chanel in back where top attaches. If you want more pic’s just ask.

Build your own, I built one for my 5 ton, cost was low just took some time to lay it all out. Installed a 2 DIN radio and dome light, also speakers in the corners of the cab.
Welcome from South Florida, sorry can't answer your question other than to say price is what market will handle, check the classified section, post a want to buy in the vehicle wanted section of classifieds, and be patient.
Good luck hope you find what you want, I have a 5 ton and love it...
RGR, meet at Ace Cafe 0930, line up, parade, after parade back to Ace Cafe for static display. Looking forward to it. Quick question, you mentioned Flag Rules, does attached pic fit the rules ?
Mark, I'm still planning to join the Veterans Day Parade on the 11th. Hope to have my HMMWV ready for the Mt Dora event and the March events. I want to locate a tow bar so I can pull it behind my 5 ton.
Usmcjo, if you can try to attend on the 11th, at ACE Cafe, you can meet some of the members and ask as many questions as you like... I'd offer you a seat in my M923A2 for the parade but I already have a passenger. See you there ?
You are in the right place, if you have not already joined the FLMVPA you might want to check into it, where in Central Fl ? I'm in Jupiter. You might also want to go to ACE Cafe (in Orlando) on the 11th of Nov, there will be a group of us there for the parade and after parade activities.
BTW...
Not a deuce but maybe will give you ideas, I built this for my hardtop 5 ton, or you could pay a LOT more and buy it from a place in CA.
6x9 speakers mounted in corners of the cab, braced by 2 pieces of cheap metal hand bent to fit and bolted in place covered by 1/4" plywood. It works good for...
So Flush, Chemical or plain water ? Have not flushed my 5 ton yet, just drained and serviced with fresh Antifreeze. Guess I'll just do the drain and service on my HMMWV when it is freed from the EUC prison and in my hands.
Any one tried to mount a coolant filter in their HMMWV ? I search but many find for the 5 tons filters, was wondering if it's possible and if it's worth it.
Great info, thanks guys, I will plan on just changing the filter and ATF in transmission, once I drain out the old ATF I will have a close look at it for any signs of burning and general crud. Engine oil and filter are a given, change to have a base line for future change periods, Cooling...
I give 2 thumbs up, how many times have we all started a project and changed it mid stream or after we finished it and it was not what we had envisioned scrapped it and started over. Jackson stick to your guns, if you don't like it change it.
This is what I was hoping for, stir up the brain trust to get more information, exactly what I was hoping for. Only additives I have put in the engine of my 5 ton is for fuel (Kleen Diesel).
Sintorion do you use any additives ? Maybe a different brand ? Looking for info to make the best choice...
