    Towing with m998 a

    You aren't wrong, it should be capable of whatever they marketed the H1 as. Like every older vehicle, just make sure everything is mechanically sound. It would also be prudent to use a trailer with electric or surge brakes when towing heavier loads. Mike

    Recovering vehicle markings

    Quick question, what's the best way to remove all the black spray paint to recover the original markings? I know acetone will strip it, but will it also strip the markings? And if I do restore it, what are the legalities of driving with the markings? Thanks, Mike

    Dome light measurements?

    I like the way you think. While they don't have the cool military look, they would certainly get the job done. I would probably end up popping them open to adjust the current limiter because they look a little too bright. While we are on the subject, does anyone have any thoughts on the...

    Dome light measurements?

    An unexpected home expense has put a temporary hold on me getting hard doors, so I'm looking at the cheaper things I still need to add. I'm looking at the dome lights and need to know the measurements so I can mock stuff up and see which one I want to go with. Does anyone have the measurements...

    Is it time yet to have that discussion? Hmmwv discrimination.

    I would say come on over to Jersey, but the Democratic people's republic of NJ is going downhill too. Pretty soon I think if kids are playing and do finger guns they will end up in jail lol. Mike

    Hub bearing?

    For now I refilled the hub with some of that Lucas hub oil till my replacement seals come. While I had it jacked up I checked for play or crunchy rotation in the hub, seemed fine. Mike

    Hub bearing?

    A few days ago I noticed what sounded like a tire out of balance and now one of my hubs is leaking. I'm wondering if the 2 are related. What noise have any of you witnessed when one of the bearings has gone? It's not loud, and the truck isn't shaking around, it's just that out of balance tire...

    Passenger Side Mirror

    Unless it needs adjustment. Move it till it falls into that detent, then you loosen the nut and move it into position. I believe on the passenger side it is 7 inches from the end of the arm to the side of the hood. Then you tighten down the bolt. I would double check that measurement in the...
