    Run flats

    http://www.trailworthyfab.com/H1-Hummer-Wheels/ Read up.... I know Interco, Goodyear Wrangler MT or the MT/R and Pitbull offer tires for the HMMWV rims there may be some others but those are the ones that I am positive that have several different tires and sizes to fit. There is a piece that...

    special charger for AGM batteries?

    $179 is a great price for Yellow tops D34/78. Best I've been able to do (with a core and a coupon code) with Advance Auto is $186. The $186 price is all day everyday tho.

    New from Va

    Welcome from Blacksburg just down the road from you. I love my 1028 w/plow in my avatar. It's a great work truck, plow truck and does everything I have e ever asked it to do. Be sure to read thru the TM's. It's a worthwhile read. I would definitely recommend going thru and replacing all the...

    CUCV Snow Plow Trucks and Spreaders

    Is that what is hanging from the back of the red plow truck? Why? I worked the truck in my avatar for the past 3 days. I'm glad I had a 1028 I barely made it up 2 driveways to plow them with chains on all 4 tires. I don't know if the 1008 would have made it? I had 3 offers to purchase the...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    After standing in the cold for an hour because for some reason my garage won't fit a snow plow and a fullsize truck and allow you to shut the door. I replaced my blower fan motor after it started making a awful noise. Which while plowing snow today couldn't have come at a worse time. It...

    WMO users in Ohio?

    Just a thought....I don't know if the state of OH has something like VA does for a tax credit but you guys should look into it and see. http://www.deq.virginia.gov/Programs/LandProtectionRevitalization/RecyclingandLitterPreventionPrograms/TaxCredits.aspx

    HMMWV Replacement Batteries

    These are the Yellow top batteries I have: D34 CA-870 CCA-750 AH-55 RC-120 These are the Red top batteries I have: Model #-34 CA-1000 CCA-800 RC-100 The reason I like the Yellow top over the Red top is that the Yellow top is a deep cycle battery which seems to respond better to deep discharges...

    HMMWV Replacement Batteries

    Go to Advance Auto online (if you have a store in your area to pick up from?) and get the Red Top Optima's or Yellow Top (which are what I prefer and use in the 3 vehicles below). They have a 3 year warranty and if you use the online promo code TRT30 it'll save you $50. Make 2 seperate orders...

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    I had the awful death wobble on my 1028 and just replaced the broken plastic bushing with the Reid Racing Bronze Kingpin bushings from ORD. No more death wobble which was increased when the snow plow was on the front of the truck. I couldn't drive faster than 25mph from job to job.

    TH400 auto used for plowing snow

    Some plow manufacturers have airfoil designs that prevent this problem

    Who saw the new TV show Diesel brothers?

    I agree...but unfortunately drama is needed these days to keep the viewing audience engaged. If you didn't have the drama it would be just like the TRUCKS! Tv show (which isn't a bad thing). It's also sad to see their disregard for safety when sandblasting. He a made comment about sand...

    Fording Project

    This sounds similar to what some Unimogs come with stock. Which if memory serves me correctly are pressurized somewhere between 1-3 psi.

    If you don't want to use the google custom search feature on the top right of the page you could always look below at the "similar threads" section. I didn't notice the similar threads section until someone pointed them out to me.

    HMMWV shakes bad

    I disagree with that statement... I sold a set of 4 a couple of months ago to a local guy for $700 (I wanted $800 but let him talk me down to $700). I was super happy to get rid of them. They had 95% tread left. He was putting them on a jacked up Ford or Chevy.

    Help on 5/4 ton CUCV purchase

    I think you'll find the CUCV to be a great asset for general work. As you can see from my avatar I have a snow plow on mine and plow several commercial properties and several driveways. I have lost count of how many cords of firewood mine has carried home for my grandmother who heats with...

    Cucv upgrades.

    Have you had them in the snow yet? I have heard that they don't produce enough heat to melt the snow that can potentially build up on them. I don't know this from personal experience tho. So hopefully you can tell us your experiences? My favorite mods are: -DH mod -ORD Reid Racing King-pin...
