    Everything is gone from the govplanet account.

    I just logged on for the first time in a couple weeks to confirm my EUC is still pending . My auction is gone. No EUC pending, no items won, no invoices, etc. It's like my account was wiped out, but I'm logged in. Anyone else seeing issues? Maybe an IT update/failure? I guess I'll call on...

    Any way to confirm that DLA/TSC has received my EUC from Gov Planet?

    After a 2nd call to Gov Planet last Friday asking why my EUC wasn't sent to TSC yet, the status changed on Sunday to "submitted to TSC". So, I think that's good progress, but I'd like to confirm that DLA/TSC actually has received it. As much as I want to trust GP, I've read too many posts...

    Is this the right seat belt kit to go 2 man to 4 man?

    I won an auction for a basic 2 man m1123 last week and I'm starting to research and buy stuff I need to convert it to a 4 man (while wating on EUC, etc.). I already purchased a 4 man top/door kit and I'm trying to confirm what else I need. It looks like I need the following kit for rear...

    2009 NOS vs. Newly manufactured soft top/door kit?

    I'm trying to hunt down a 4 man soft top/door kit. I found a NOS kit dated 2009 that is in clean original packaging. I also understand that the company making the new ones (Breton) went out of business recently but there is a new manufacturer picking up that business. It sounds like it will...

    Assuming I already have a 4 man soft top kit (top, c pillar, bows, doors, etc. ) , what all is need to make a basic 2 man m1123 into a 4 man? Seats, seat belts and hardware/mounts, seat bases?, etc.? Anywhere I can find a listing of parts needed? Here is the truck if it helps...

    Question on Gov planet process - What's a realistic timeframe for first time EUC's right now?, etc.

    I just won an auction yesterday and filled out EUC form and paid. Their site says 6-10 weeks for approval, but I think I've seen others say that's optimistic. Any idea how long EUC's are currently taking for a first time submission right now? I think I've seen some people say up to 6 months...

    Just won an auction for my first HMMWV, the wait begins

    I ended up with the winning bid on a basic 2 door with no top. 2009 barstow rebuild. It's got a few known issues (heater not working, missing wipers, possible leak on transfer case). Hopefully nothing major. My plan is to go soft top and soft doors, probably 4 door. Link below. If anyone...

    Transfer case leak or maybe fuel? How hard to re-seal transfer case?

    More auction pics. Pic below is on a truck that claims only ~30 miles since rebuild in 09. The rest of the truck is super clean. It looks like someone took the transfer case and front of drive shaft and dipped it in batter or something. I assume this is a leaking transfer case or maybe a...

    Tailgate dimples/dents - any fix?

    I'm looking at a bunch of trucks on gov planet and noticing that many of them have double dent "dimples" on the tailgate where it swings down and hits the rear tie downs. Is it safe to assume these dents are not fixable? Some of the dents are pretty extreme, most don't look too bad and are...

    Help with a couple auction pics - name that part...

    I'm working to ID and evaluate some gov planet trucks I want to bid on. I kind of know what to look for on general condition, but I"m new to HMMVW's and don't really know when to be concerned when I see a part laying around or something that looks "off". Here's a pic of a disconnected/hanging...

    New to hmmwv's, trying to figure things out to get the right one

    First post, thanks for all the great content on this forum. I'm looking to get a humvee from gov planet and trying to figure things out. I believe I'm getting a handle on the general process (bit of a crap shoot), but want to make sure I'm looking at the right model/options when deciding what...
