    RetiredWarHorses deals with this regularly IIRC. Ask what he does. Also, soak with penetrating oil

    6.5 Motor replacement cost

    Companies used to sell pullouts. Engines with tranny and xfer cases. 2-4 thousand. RWH charges 8 K. Others have gone to buy used marine or civilian 6.5 Detroit Diesels at junk yards. You should start on our classified adds and with site sponsors.

    Glow Plug Testing IN block

    FYI. CamO did this stuff for a living in the military and beyond. His electronics advice should be considered solid.

    Glow Plug Testing IN block

    Yes you can. If the resistance is infinite than the plug is dead.

    Look up tie rod ends for H1 Hummer 6.5 n/a or turbo engine for A0 and A1 trucks A few seconds on AutoZone.

    I have videos of Hummer H1 two and three wheel driving with his A0 and 7k axles. Lockers! He don’t need no stinken’ lockers!

    REMOVE THE FAN! EDIT - CamO is correct. Be safe and remove the fan.

    HummerH1 has almost 300,000 miles on his A0 rig that goes offroad in ice, snow, mud, rocks… Never once has he indicated that he wants or needs lockers. I have predominantly street vehicles both HMMWV and H1. I have NEVER wanted lockers. These are amazing capable vehicles As-Is. I’m not sure...

    I never explain it properly. Look up BTM Brake Throttle Modulation IIRC. Patracy is referring to that.

    Trans Light on when the Run Switch is Off?

    I should have been more specific. When the ignition is off, is there any 24Volt current flowing? If so, the PCB/EESS is sending power to the 12 V relay and the problem is the PCB not the 12V relay.

    Trans Light on when the Run Switch is Off?

    Just out of curiosity, are any 24 Volt systems getting voltage? If so, the problem is in your EESS or PCB. If not, then it is most likely the 12 V solenoid (unless you have a short circuit somewhere bypassing the relay).

    Smart box

    The wait light will light up however that wait light is useless with both of our systems. You are in control, pressing a button. When you press that button the light will come on. If you hold the button waiting for it to go out, the light will stay on and you will burn your glow plugs. I drew...

    Smart box

    Both of use units that do not require drilling. People like the units I posted schematics about and I get great telephone feedback. People love CamO’s units and I read great feedback. I started a thread years ago to repair these units and make the process more understandable. CamO contacted me...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    What’s wrong with egg shaped tires! Some people are so fussy! (Your truck looks great!)

    Smart box

    No, it is a solid solution but not the only solution. Cam is a great guy but he is NOT the only game in town. I am a proponent of repairing/refurbishing to make a robust test box. I also posted the plans on how to do it. It is essentially a repair. Hummer H1 alternatively and frequently...

    REV truck?

    Perhaps winning bid previously was 35,100.00 and someone flaked and didn’t pay so it got relisted.

    Broken front spring ( looking for two )

    You have logged literally over 200,000 miles. Springs fatigue and break. Had nothing to do with your tires my good friend. Don’t beat yourself up. You did nothing wrong.

    Broken front spring ( looking for two )

    You will have a rough ride with those springs. I suggest going with lighter springs that match your other pair OR replace all four with heavy duty. I Bet the hummer guy and 86HUMV has them all in stock. Eric texted me the damage and the working repair that allowed him to keep going. Man is he...

    Hutchinson Run Flat Lubricant

    The lube prevents friction related heat between the runflat and the tire in deflated tires. The heat gets bad enough to create fires. In essence, the lubricant prevents friction fires.
