    Cooling upgrade system.

    The attachment does not work but if you have a HMMWV then you should have the return as part of the kit. It sounds like you may have ordered a civilian kit? Where did you buy the kit, on our site or EBAY? PM me and I will look up your order to see what you got.

    Heat blower motor

    The fan might be drawing too much load and popping the breaker. You might want to spin it by hand and make sure it is not full of debris. Trucks that have spent a lot of time under water tend to have this issue.

    Anyone gone the Gear Vendor Overdrive route rather than a 4L80 swap ?

    Yes a HMMWV can go 70MPH and more safely if properly setup to do so. There is NOTHING specifically limiting a stock HMMWV to 55MPH either but that the military wanted it that way (max convoy speed). The RPM limit is still able to go much higher and the suspension etc. is also not a limiting...

    More heat to heater core.

    Here is a link to detailed information about the flow of coolant in these blocks. https://paradoxbydesign.com/blogs/news/the-humvee-diesel-engine-cooling-paradox One of the benefits of these kits is the more rapid heat up of the heater core. We do not recommend running the heater off the rear...

    M998 stalling at highway speeds

    Sounds definitely like a bad or floating fuel pump. Floaters are where the pump shaft binds in the bore or the pump return is not working well. Either case needs at least the pump removed to take a look.

    FLU419 SEE HMMH HME Owners group

    In stock form you have forward hydraulic control in the cab only. That being said you can route hydraulic controls anywhere you want with enough time and money. The transmission is a 4spd with two fwd speed ranges and one rear speed range so 8 fwd speeds and 4 rwd speeds. So like a tractor...

    Auxiliary M998 Gas tank

    There are also several 'universal' tanks that will work too. You can just pump them into the main tank.

    Cooling upgrade system.

    We need to cool the block as well as the heads. We did consider tapping into the freeze plugs in the block but we reached balance without having to complicate installation and testing. Also by adding coolant to the pressure side you need to also find a higher pressure source than the water...

    Alternative to a Red Dot AC project...

    In my opinion, this would not work for you. At the super low BTUs that puts out the heat being generated far exceeds the cooling. You will not cool much at all. You need 15000 BTUs to just start at cooling any real amount. We install dual 30000 BTU units on desert trucks!

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    In order to get individual battery voltage you need to remove the link between them and read the 12V number.

    Special Forces style seat covers.

    Yep, there are plenty of generic seat covers that kinda work and that is what this is fighting against is el-cheepo generic vs higher end and more money. All of this for a small market too ;) I might just have a few made up at higher cost and those that really want them will pay the extra few...

    Need my M1028A1 (former M1031) transported from Augusta, GA to Ogden, UT!

    Let me see... reasonable is a loose term BTW ;)

    Special Forces style seat covers.

    I might be able to justify making a version without any pockets or perhaps just front and side pockets for the rear seats. That being said though the upper rear pocket would still be accessible just not the lower.

    Special Forces style seat covers.

    Not arguing on that. These need to be tighter for the commander seat. That being said they will never be tight fitting as they need to be able to be slid off and thrown into the wash after a day in the mud too.
