    Illinois humvee title problem

    Yes, I just referenced that also because if the seller did not disclose the offroad clause, I suspect he also neglected the EUC. I agree the hold harmless is a CYA thing and up to the owner to determine what they are comfortable with in their specific situation. State DMV bureaucrats have way...

    Juan's M998 HMMWV

    High Back Seat Repair I dropped a part on one of my rear high back seats and ripped the cover. I unbolted the seat from the lid ( commander/ high back seat lids are thicker than the original) . The top cover back has hog rings. The bottom seat cover has round C clips that pinch the cover to the...

    Illinois humvee title problem

    residency is used as a taxation tool. There are exceptions for military and college students typically. Yes, A Vermont plate is a work around but with valid insurance not an issue to the owner. Registering to another person (dad) can bring up liabilities for him in case of a major accident. The...

    High Back Seat Parts

    ISRI referred me to Suburban seats with the same part number and info Kurt supplied. I called them and they had no clue on part number or pricing. They said they would call me back.... Still waiting. Thanks to 86humv's care package, all is good. Pics of seat for reference.

    Do serial numbers ever change?

    Illinois humvee title problem

    Just get a Vermont plate and be done with it. It will suck to pay sales tax again but you will have a plated truck.

    "Popping" noise in front end

    I would recommend strongly looking at all the ball joints, tie rod sockets. What you are describing is a very worn component that is on the verge of failing and separating causing possibly catastrophic failure. Any tire shop that does alignments such as Goodyear/ Firestone/ etc can do a front...

    Sets of hard doors..

    GL had a tire scrap listing at fort Polk. In the background picture are stacks of basic x doors on pallets. I do think they get pulled and who knows? Never seen any on any GL sales new or used. I think the "kelvar" makes them bad things for us to own as it implies they are armored and the demil...

    Fire extinguisher recall of Kidde

    Check also if you have a plastic handle NAPA by balkamp as Kiddie made those for NAPA. The list did not show NAPA or Balkamp ( their brand) but the kiddie model number on mine came up and in the corner of the label it does say made by kiddie mine was a balkamp 770-7019 NAPA part number 2-1/2 ABC

    Snorkel windshield bolts sizing

    I did not have a rivet nut tool at the time and my solution was to use rubber well nuts that fit in the hole and swell up when tightened by the 1/4 bolts. Home depot stocks them in the hardware aisle in the drawers. Unless you plan on whacking it with a huge tree limb, it will do just fine. I...

    Juan's M998 HMMWV

    Driver's side antenna mount set up On the rear driver's side I have one of the hmmwv offset antenna mounts (thanks 86humv) with a AS-3900 base. On the inside of the side fender is a 3 bolt fender reinforcement plate A3046222. I bought mine at Flight Source/Equipment parts sales. It can be right...

    Converting M923 over to Transmission Fluid

    The decision was made for me as it was already dexron for my M923 from Ft. Polk. I have changed the pan filter once and the spins on yearly and had no issues. It also "feels" like it shifts better than other trucks I have been allowed to drive but that has many variables.... but I also rarely...

    M200A1 behind a HMMWV??

    If you are towing with just a pintle/lunette double check the weight to your current bumper set up. The OE curved bumper was not very stout, then it was upgraded MWO with a straight bumper, then the air drop. I think that m200 sits too high to tow behind the hmmwv as the hitch is pretty low and...

    transfer case regear thoughts for M939 series

    A few years ago I picked up a hemtt transfer case in the can for min bid $25 at Ft. Polk. Sold it to one of the few hemtt owners at the time (before GL sales) in Colorado I think for a couple Hundred as no one was interested. Supply and demand plus timing.....

    High Back Seat Parts

    Thanks for the tips. I did not think to check across the pond :-) My seat has a very small rip that the patch fixed but I was just curious what they will tell me. I think Greg has a care package coming my way with clips but if not I will follow up.
