    Value assessment

    Well since you asked for my .02 worth here it is. There are basically two groups of people into these trucks. Those that want to keep them as close to original and those that don't care. Both groups have people on a budget and people with deep pockets or that work in the fabrication business...

    Engine Rebuild

    No you don't have to upgrade the transmission to a 4L80E. I would consider it if I were you however. Like Mogman said. you don't have to take out everything at once. but you can. Having a park position in your truck to me is a big plus . You can add a park pawl to your existing transmission if...

    Engine Rebuild

    You can take the entire power plant out (engine ,trans, transfer case, in one piece ) without removing the body. If I had the motor out I'd replace it with a 6.5 NA before I put the 6.2 back in it.

    What is the highest mileage hmmwv anyone has encountered

    I guess it will depend on how often its driven. I have an 86 HMMWV. I've owned it for 20 years. Repowered it with a 6.5 N/A about 5-6 years ago. But it's not a daily driver so at the rate I'm going it's going to outlive me. Got a 98 Ram pickup I bought brand new. I have put about 60 k on it in...

    Tunnel by emergency brake gets hot to the touch

    Yes . I insulated mine when the body was off. Haven't driven it much lately but I believe it helped a good deal.

    Probably a better question to ask in the HMMWV hotrod and modification section.

    Asking for a friend

    That defiantly sounds interesting as a HMMWV owner. Also may I suggest that if your planning on trying to re create or build a tribute truck try and do it in such away that it truly honors those that lived and died in them. If your going to go as far as naming it after a Vietnam era truck...

    Does having a Turret add more value to the HMMWV? Turret owners... Could you live without it?

    Kind of hard to shoot out of without a turret. That's why I bought the truck. If I wanted a HMMWV without A turret I would have bought a different varient. The most important question that only you will be able to answer is. When it comes time for you to sell it. How much you want to get for it...

    Buying price

    No it means some insurance companies won't insure it or will charge you more if it's not garaged. Kind of like Jetbike above's experience. Some HOA's will have a problem if it's not garaged as well. Just trying to make sure he does his homework.

    Buying price

    Do your homework about registration in CA. before you buy one at auction and try to get it licensed in Ca. nowadays. Probably better to buy one already plated in Calif. Things have changed over the last 30 years related to them here in the Ca. If your not a wrench turner you better be a good...

    CA title

    Well I did say back in the 90's. Lots of my questions went un answered but I probably know why. I'm guessing it was a recent auction purchase. I'd like to know if the car dealer guy sold it to him with plates or just a title. If it was already plated and tagged and just changed owners that...

    CA title

    First off sorry you had your title revoked/ changed. So just to be clear. You are the second owner.? The first owner you bought the truck from bought the truck at the first auction and registered / and plated it for on highway use. You transferred owner ship of said vehicle from his name to...

    CA title

    Why do you say his information is incorrect? Who's HMMWV has been removed of it's road legal status from the original batch of HMMWV's sold at auction back in the 90's ? This is news to me!! I'd be interested in more information. Are you speaking of your own experience ? or others? When did you...
