    Trans slip or something else?

    It was probably the Cadillac valve. It makes a kind of a hiss. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yea, until you verify it with a meter there isn’t much troubleshooting that can be done. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Sherpa winch vs PTO winch

    Whatever you choose several properly rated Crosby shackles and at minimum 2 properly rated snatch blocks are a must for a big truck recovery. Single lining on a big truck is a bad idea no matter what winch you choose. Use your winch in its best configuration on the last or next to the last...

    Sherpa winch vs PTO winch

    Don’t discount the warn 18k severe duty. It’s what’s on the MRAP and many other trucks that are larger than your deuce. One snatch block solves your weight problem. They are cheap ($500 ish) surplus. Also you can order parts directly from warn. I have used them with great success over the last...

    S-280 camper build

    That’s surprising. That stuff sticks to anything, especially me! I though I was going to have to sand it off last one I sealed the roof on a camper. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Really stupid wiper question

    The only way to get them to work really well is to take them off the truck and throw them in the trash. Then cal Kascar or Adventure Accessories and order a set of H1 blades and arms. It’s literally one of the best mods I have done to my truck. Also get some rained and slather it on the...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Check the ground on the back of the instrument panel. If the ground is good test with a known working gage. If the known working gauge doesn’t work then it’s the sender in the tank. Military Gauges suck and the grounds on hmmwvs suck worse. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Right now my plan is to run a 12 inch ring of plywood around the top edge of the trailer body. The sides will be inset into the gaps of the stakes for a flush mount. Then I will bolt the plywood to the stakes. For the front My current plan is to put a piece of angle across the width of the...

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    I took my new to me cover to get the zippers sewn back in and put up the stakes and bows. Going to try to make a low budget camper out of it to see how it works. Just some 12v LED’s and a home made bed for now. Going to drag it on a local camping trip in February. Sent from my iPhone...

    6.2 Civi Vs. Military

    Much of the sound difference has to do with the lack of sound deadening anywhere in the cab. The cabs magnify the sound without any carpet or rubber. Also nothing on the hood to keep it quiet. Also most of the trucks GM sold had an overdrive. The 3 speed makes the engine rev more thus making...

    HMMWV Transmission selector difficult to go from Drive to Neutral

    You can confirm by unhooking it from the transmission and cycling the gears. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    HMMWV Transmission selector difficult to go from Drive to Neutral

    In that case I would pull the shifter out of the truck and clean it well and put a good dry lubricant on the moving parts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Have you checked the linkage between the shifter and the transmission? It could be in a bind. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
