    Tire Bounce...

    Do you have a GoPro camera? You could mount one under there in a few different spots and see what's really happening at speed.

    Tire Bounce...

    Slightly bent hub is my guess. Raise it safely on jackstands with all four wheels off the ground and idle it in drive and watch to see if the hub, wheel , and tire run true.

    Split Mirror possible mix-up and mounting Brackets

    I believe the upper mount is right or left hand as is the mirror head. Mine came with the deeper side out. Made the most sense to me.

    Go big or go home - with photos

    Normally I wouldnt read/comment on stereo system discussions but your install is remarkably clean and military looking. If you painted it all matching CARC green it would be perfect! The unit on the doghouse looks like something the military would install

    Will not start

    Had a similar issue on a 1025A2. replaced fuel pump because of a broken diaphragm lifter button. Now getting fuel pumping out of the filter housing...cool. Hook the hose back up to the filter and it just cranks away. Cracked an injector line and no joy. Removed the supply hose from the...

    New M1123 Owner intro and question

    Yeah, I doubt you will get any money back. There were pics of the incomplete engine and no videos of the engine running. You got it at non-runner pricing. Look at what the runners went for lately. You got plenty of room to have a pro take care of it for you and still be in it somewhat cheap...

    about a dozen 1990's M1097A1 HMMWV's in Arizona for sale on GSA auctions

    I was checking those out as they are local. My buddy picked up some M1101 trailers out of there last week. I think I talked him out of getting that 7 pack of MTVs they got there also.

    Humvee Fan Fighting with Thermostat? (almost always on but temps are good)

    I was half thinking about getting one of the newer style gauges that seems more informative AND come with an idiot light

    new here...have a couple questions

    Welcome! When you are able post some pics of it. Look for any markings on the front and rear corners that may be decipherable as a former unit. Ive seen multiple layers showing different units. USMC trucks sometimes have a unit code on the rocker panels and tailgate. Fuel tanks are 25 gallons

    Hi Back Driver & Commander seat conversion - Military 12446950

    Cant find anything related to the 3220 kit. Just reference back to the 0290 kit page. I know I didnt install one It seems like its for M996/M997 and a few other variants. Not the M998, though. Installing the seat kit looks complicated in the instructions but if you only work on one step at...

    Peel and Seal Type Flashing for Sound Deadening

    I doubt it will last long on the underside of the body. Ive used that cheap stuff from home deeps on my M1009 under new rubber flooring/padding and it made a difference. I would suggest putting it on the inside covering the hottest and most resonant areas of the floor and tunnel and then top...
