    Arrival of 2nd HMMWV M1151A1

    Sell the slantback and make your money back, then scavenge the truck for what you want. Who did you use for shipping?

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    So I'm not the only one daft enough to use a HMMWV for snowmobile hauling. Me and the bud, up in the Rockies after riding the machines.

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    A morning drive to the airport 20 miles east of town to get a friend. (Traffic jam is because there is a snowplow ahead of us)

    Rico sells them. Or eBay.

    Any idea what this is?

    That metal part is the dikfer off the exhaust system.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    my buddy did his with used motor oil. I just wanted to be a little more environmentally friendly.

    U Ship... Non runner... all wheels... What category are People using?

    Since we have some shipping expertise, what’s the best way to send a pallet of parts cross country? I have a 48x48x48 crate containing an OGPK setup that’s in Florida and that I need to send to Colorado. I have no experience with LTL services, should I just use T-force (old UPS service) or...

    Steering Gear Box

    I think you need to buy a second non-runner truck at auction to get one economically.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    My local lumber place didn’t have any marine or treated plywood. So it’s regular plywood but treated with oil based water sealer so it should hold up for a few seasons. And should be easy enough to change out if it rots, just transfer the rubber guides over to a new piece and bolt in.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    That looks good - too good! I might suggest an orange tip for the front to help avoid any potential law enforcement interactions!

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I completed the conversion of my M1152A1 to winter snowmobile carrier. I had previously laid down wood and new D rings with bolts and installed rubber guides for the snowmobile. Loaded yesterday and all is good.

    As I hurry up and wait... SHIPPING a HMMWV?

    Not all drivers are equal. If you are not going to pick up yourself, then get one who knows how to eyeball your new truck, make sure it matches the auction description, and knows how to secure it properly. Example: It would suck to have your new truck arrive without the X doors pictured in the...

    Anyone seen this kind of pintle hitch before?

    Truck sold cheap, there were a lot of good parts there even if it was a non-runner.

    Anyone seen this kind of pintle hitch before?

    Thanks that helped me find it - one on ebay now. https://www.ebay.com/itm/354307064133?campid=5338767525&toolid=20006 Don't need it or even want it, but I thought it was curious.

    Anyone seen this kind of pintle hitch before?

    But the non-Rhino spare tire carrier makes me think not?

    Anyone seen this kind of pintle hitch before?

    It's on an auction truck at GP. Never seen this before - what is this for? https://www.govplanet.com/for-sale/Humvees-2008-AM-General-M1152A1-HMMWV-2-Door-Hard-Top-w%2FTruck-Body-Georgia/8523954?h=5000%2Cc%7C3468%2Cmd%7CM1152A1%2Cyr%7C2008%2Csm%7C0%2Cms%7CG%2Cmf%7C1&rr=0.5&hitprm=&pnLink=yes

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    If you had something foul up the inside of your curbside trash bin . . . And if all of your hose bibs are shut off for the icy Rocky Mountain winter . . . Turns out an M1152A1 is the perfect size to take your Toter down to the local pay and spray for a wash out.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Lined the bed of my M1152A1 with a piece of 3/4 plywood. Took off four of the bolts securing the bed, laid the wood, marked, drilled, and resecured with a combination of 2.5" (back bolts/tie downs) and 3" (front bolts/tie downs) grade 8 bolts and some new tie down anchors I purchased on Amazon...

    Glow plug lost through combustion chamber cup

    I was going to ask - that's a heck of a project you are into all for a tiny piece of junk in there!
  20. M1165A1

    Just won a M1152A1 and have questions...

    Not much other than the baldest flattest tires in existence. on a set of mismatched junk quality 12 bolt rims. It also needed a new fuel pump and some lighting replaced, otherwise it was ship shape. Mine was a Georgia truck.
