I recently picked up a small truckload of HMMWV parts, which included this GMV roof and rear rack assembly. It won't work well with my M1165 without some fitting and welding (a skill I sadly do not have). I am pretty sure the roof is authentic, the rear rack is either field improvised or home...

Took the Chevy mag wheels off and listed them for sale, put two good HMMWV wheels and tires on the trailer. Got to looking at it, decided to pull out the pressure washer and wash the outside of the trailer, decided to do the tarp as well, then figured I may as well do the inside of the...

I let the fuel level drop below a half tank to check what kind of MPG I'm getting. Calculated out at 9.6

Pictures! This is what it looks like on my truck: And some internest pics:

Good morning all! I recently picked up a small truckload of HMMWV parts, which included a super rare GMV roof and rear rack assembly. It won't work well with my M1165 without some fitting and welding (a skill I sadly do not have). Trying to gauge interest if anyone has a M1114 model (direct...

Not talking about the insurance company, talking about an accident investigator looking into your LLC and determining it doesn't do any business, and exists merely to circumvent a law. The Revokable Trust doesn't have that pitfall.

I've never pulled the M1101 with anything other than the Grand Cherokee. The HMMWV is the Prime Mover for it though, and Saturday I need to pick up some HMMWV parts. First, I had to deal with the ball of little b@stards, saw them swirling around when I was getting ready to connect, and used...

I finally got the Geo Tracker coolant bottle installed. My repair to the OEM was failing so it was time to pull it out. Trying to keep the original hoses as original as possible in case I ever find another OEM bottle it'll be an easy swap back in, but that meant removing the document box from...

I understand there are some legal pitfalls with doing an LLC - setting one up solely to circumvent the law is fraud. If there's a wreck and investigation, and it becomes obvious there is no "business" going on in the LLC, you may need some deep pockets. I understand you can put the vehicle in...

Mine is the ECV with the turbo and 400 amp alternator- my idle RPM when warm is around 975RPM, which seems high and feels high (seems like it takes a bit of brake pedal pressure when stopped to stay stopped). My M1009 CUCV would idle high during warm-up, then once it got to temp there was a...

Any time you suspect the cat might be ineffective or requiring diagnosis, you should perform the following system test: 1. Take lots of photos of the configuration of the heat shields to aid in reinstallation. 2. Remove the cat from the truck. Use a half-moon box end wrench to reach the top...

The reason I posted this on the last page wasn't to use it with their batteries, but to use it with the 24V in the truck.

When you're solo, the engine hoist helps with getting the hood off safely, as well as pulling the rad out once it's loose. I did not pull the big fiberglass tub, just unscrewed the rad from it and left it in place. I think the manual wants you to pull the tub and rad as one unit. I should...

I did not. I capped the hard-lines and the hoses as soon as they were disconnected. Topped up the fluids after.

I pulled mine to get the radiator out to take it to a radiator guy for repair. It's a lot of work, but not too bad. I did it by myself. If you do end up pulling the stack, stop at Harbor Freight and pick up some of these.

Somewhere there's a farmer who has a barn, and in that barn is one of these being used as a big table. I just have to find that farmer...

Reminds me on mine, except your wires aren't burnt. Crawl under and look up.

You never said what you wanted a picture of, and I don't know what a turret hatch latch is, so here's the ones I did get.

Some easier than others. One of the vehicles has zip-ties around the door handles, holding the doors latched closed. They do that if the hinges are suspect, because if you open one of those doors and the door comes off- you'll need an ambulance. Two are open the last time I was there. Let me...

The general consensus is the keyed switches destroy the start box, which is an expensive repair. There are better options.
