    From a quick stop I made at the Heartland Military Museum in Lexington, NE. About the only good part of driving cross country I-80.

    Help me pick display weapon.

    go on eBay and get a blank firing adapter for the gun. Put it on the end and it will make it look safe.

    Rifle Mount

    Just make sure the muzzle doesn't end up pointing at anything you don't want to kill, destroy or purchase!

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Took the HMMWV offroad to the top of a 4 wheel drive trail at about 10,200 feet. The trail was rough - big rocks most of the way, the truck needing a lot of suspension. At times I thought the HMMWV would bottom out. But we made it and it was a blast. This photo was at the last turnaround...

    m1152 ecv heater core leaking

    When I did the replacement it my HMMWV perfectly and it also checks out as part 19 on Figure 286 of the 24P manual. Can you elaborate more? btw you can also replace the whole front evaporator unit, it's easier but the evaporator unit is expensive and hard to find.

    m1152 ecv heater core leaking

    Had the same issue on my 1165. If you mean it's the front core that's leaking there's a replacement on ebay. https://www.ebay.com/itm/273749942389 It will take some work to get that thing in and out and if you disconnect the A/C lines (which you will need to, unless you can find a way to get...

    What is the function of this component inside the TOW missile trucks

    My HMMWV needs a T&A upgrade?

    Your truck will have the upgrades in blue on the chart. The slightly later >300,000 serial numbered ones have the additional upgrades in red.

    M1165 vs 1165A1 etc

    Turret makes the vehicle. Retiredwarhorses did mine and it's a beaut, a real head turner and fun for the kids.

    M1165 vs 1165A1 etc

    An M1165A1 with a serial number over 300000 is going to be a Reliability Enhanced Vehicle B aka REV B truck. Below is a chart listing some of the changes. On balance the REV B are significantly desirable upgrades for the vehicle but come at premium in terms of up front cost and some more...

    Rhino Tire Carrier - Washer Specs

    I was going to say Rhino sells parts if you can't find it, but sounds like you got it.

    Long road trip, HMMWV-HMMWV towing advice

    Seems interesting but won't it lock up the brakes in rain or snow? As it is my HMMWV wants to fishtail every time I brake on less than dry pavement. A surge brake like this hitting the pedal hard could create a real issue?

    Long road trip, HMMWV-HMMWV towing advice

    What doesn't leak on a HMMWV? But the turret has been firstrate, like all your work ;). It was an attention getter in the winter when my son rode on the sling driving around town. Stay tuned for some turret action pics from this coming summer, it will be used for its intended purpose shortly.

    Long road trip, HMMWV-HMMWV towing advice

    My neighbor and I will be driving our sister trucks - both M1165A1s - out to Moab for a bit of off roading. It's about a 300 mile trip (each way) for us. We'll definitely be bringing tools and a few key spares but I wanted to be prepared for one of the trucks going down. Which makes me...

    Last HMMWV produced/serial numbers?

    I was under the impression that new production had ceased in favor of the JLTV and it was only service/parts for AM General. I freely admit I could be wrong on that.
