    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    I have enough trouble keeping the front wheels straight and on the pavement. Adding two more wheels to the equation will be sure to make sidewalks and the first and second stories in many buildings unsafe.

    Bringing back to life a 2009 HMMWV M1165A1 from GovPlanet - total newbie, please help...

    I purchased a traditional General Motors backup switch that comes without wires but tabs for generic wire crimp type terminations. 12-15 bucks rather than $50 and up. It fits right into the shifter in the proper area. Screws right in. When I upgraded to a four-speed, that came with the switch...

    M998 Rim Offset Bolt Pattern

    Most aftermarket rims stick out. That places stresses on the spindles and they can break or pull out. We don’t have true solid axles, so wider offsets stress the hub spindles adding to risk of failure. You need BlueHummers. They prevent the spindle from pulling out of the hub. They are $600...

    M998 Rim Offset Bolt Pattern

    Just remove a rim, use a flatedge to measure from the inner rim to the 8 bolt holes... that is your offset. HMMWV/M998 rims are 16.5 inch rims that require a beadlock component for safest use, especially if you plan to air-down for offroading. H1 sold 16.5 and 17 inch CEPEK one piece rims that...

    HMMWV prices are sure coming up

    I understand your point, but IMHO the format here is easy to understand and keeps things pretty clean and streamlined and understandable. It just works. I would not advocate to change or fix SteelSoldiers, because it’s not broken. Edit - That other forum (name removed) is less active for a...

    Bullet proof windshield

    Holy time dilation Batman, we’re back in 2018. No Wuhan Flu and a Republican President! Search can be your friend and your enemy. You found a thread last inhabited in 2018. And one of the posters has a nasty habit of defying TOS. Have you tried the WTB section of the classifieds?

    Humvee upgrades Since Purchase - before & after

    Your truck looks beautiful BUT without a roll cage or hard top I think you should reconsider that center seat. With those rims she looks like a true HUMMerWV/H1998. What tires are you running on the 17 inch rims?

    1998 humvee drivetrain storage question

    At least part of the reason the military uses the batteries they use is that the batteries are solid state. Out batteries live in the passenger compartment. In a crash or roll over they will not leak on the vehicle occupants.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Balmy warm weather here by the beach in NYC my friend. In my short sleeves too. 🖕

    which tire you would prefer

    Can’t you add links to the stock chains to make them fit? Or are you referring to the overall tire height and width?

    WARNING aftermarket doors from Global Parts

    If the shells themselves are ok, I need H1 door shells. I’d prefer fiberglass. Steve/RWH. Do you know of a good source for fiberglass H1 doors?

    WARNING aftermarket doors from Global Parts

    Can you substitute H1 hummer parts for the crappy parts like window motors and locks and latches and such?

    My New Humvee tachometer installed

    Zounds Batman, Mr. Freeze has returned to this cold thread after 5 years. 😉 Using search is terrific but then you need to check when a thread was last active. This thread was last active in 2017. Most likely these people, who have not been seen in a while, will not reply. I used an old soup...

    What's the differences in control arms?

    New ones have a plate added to distribute forces around the interface between the ball joint and the perch on the control arm. I drilled my holes out and painted them to prevent rust when I replaced the ball joints. I did not add the plate but others do. A friend drove 200k miles on his old...
