    Broke Down in Billings Montana - Need to find a shop that can replace wheel cylinders

    Just do it yourself. You don't have to tear it all the way down just pull the drum and swap the cylinders that are leaking. No need to remove the hubs and have to deal wi wheels bearings. Surely you brought tools to change the tires? If so then you have almost everything you need.

    Where to buy a Humvee?

    eBay. Easiest place with the most to choose from. Other than that you can pick and choose from a number of individuals who regularly rebuild and resell them.

    M1097 HMMWV steering problem!

    Make sure you are actually in H and not HL. HL is high lock and will bark the tires on any turn made that is on a hard surface. HL is for offroad loose soil only. The HMMWV is full time 4wd.

    Brake Bleeding

    If you know which axle is leaking then you could take a pair of vice grip pliers and crimp the flex line for that axle and make your trip but I never told you that and I don't warranty this information use at your own risk.

    TH400 Tansmisiion Pan Swap install and gasket recommendation...

    USe the tci and use a gasket called duraprene. It won't leak like cork and doesn't compress like cork so you can get it tight and not have the bolts back out.

    turret maintenance

    Lock and crank get any type of oil you desire. The bearing is sealed so just keep it out of the water. The mil pm mag shows tarps covering the trucks when not in use

    turret

    All depends on how much you are getting. The bearing and lid are light. 50 lbs maybe. The pintle and mount and all the rest is where the weight comes from.
