    Looking for this piece- found. Thanks.

    If you find some for sale make sure its a LH and RH. They are on average $200 each. First set i bought had two RH! I didnt find a LH for two years. They usually have the part numbers and L and R stamped on them

    TURN SIGNAL BEEPER.... BEEP.... BEEP.... BEEP........

    Yours should have had a self-cancelling type lever assembly. There is an LED bulb for the indicator that is much brighter. It needs to be a special BA9S reverse polarity bulb in order to work though.

    Attributes of a lower mileage HMMWV

    Thats just a scannable inventory type tag. It has your unit's serial number. My rebuilt unit came with two actual dog tags with the truck's USMC hood number embossed into it. One was on the drivers front frame rail behind the bumper and the other was hanging from the steering column adjuster slot

    Attributes of a lower mileage HMMWV

    From what I see you look to have a nice original unrebuilt 2003 M1123. The brake pedals seemed to get sprayed green during rebuild. 03 tires with ink still present. All fasteners clean and not caked with paint . No hint of dirt or mud in any cracks or crevices. Everything points to low mileage...

    First shakedown and I have a question about the fan clutch

    Yeah that sounds normal. On, off. On, off. There is no ram air on this radiator orientation. You can fab some up a little though

    Coolant in Transfer Case

    How did he determine this? During fluid change? If you have the liquid cooled rear diff I believe that the transfer case is also cooled with engine coolant as well. Older models were cooled with transmission fluid. There is a "cooling loop" in the transfer case that has been known to crack...

    4 man top installation: What is the correct fastener for side rail?

    It was originally 10-32 phillips head screws into rubber wellnuts. Many have wollered out since new and you have to improvise with 1/4-20 nutserts/wellnuts. whatever now fits

    Troop seats for stake body

    You can remove the seat portion and just run the backs. The backs only have two boards but you can take the seat slats and cut them down to fit in the empty spaces.
