    I am baffled!

    Heck it might not even be a M998, data plates get swapped all the time, does it have V belts or a serpentine fan belt?

    I am baffled!

    That would be the correct part number for a 1989 M998, having a 12K hub is the only thing that makes sense given what the shop is reporting... It is possible if you have 10k hubs that the splines are worn out but that would be obvious when you tried to drive it.

    I am baffled!

    I suppose it is possible someone swapped the hub, it was driving before yes? Did you buy it from GP or an individual? Can you post a picture of the inside CV joint of the old shaft??

    I am baffled!

    That is really strange, there is no twisting or turning of that bolt under normal conditions, it simply prevents the shaft from backing out UNLESS you bought a 10K shaft and are trying to install it in a 12K hub, IS THAT POSSIBLE??? What model truck do you have and where did you get the shaft...

    Titling in Texas

    That should not be necessary, Texas is a HMMWV friendly state!! So far anyway, it does concern me soooo many are being disposed of here.

    Titling in Texas

    I am not a big fan of doing that, Texas is one state I have researched enough to say that a resident of Texas cannot legally drive a vehicle registered in another state, you have 30 days to surrender the tittle pay taxes and get a Texas title, they are pretty anal about that as they consider it...

    Titling in Texas

    I had the same paperwork and had no issues, sorry for your troubles, I guess the only thing you can do is try another office, fortunately Dallas has multiple offices as I think you must get the title work done in the county you reside in, I could be wrong. Bee county only has one office, they do...

    Titling in Texas

    You did pay for and have already received the SF-97 yes?

    Titling in Texas

    Also welcome to the SS forums. If you bought this from GP then when you go take the SF97 (and all the paperwork that came with the SF-97), your sales invoice from GP, a picture of the truck and a clear picture of the data plate, I usually pic them from the auction pictures. Remind them that you...

    Titling in Texas

    You should not have any problem in TX, the other poster was in FL, are you having issues with a DMV office? getting title only also is no problem, you do not need ins. to get a title only.

    Brake Light not working one side

    Does the wire 22 (I think that should be 22-461) have 24V measured when the light is attached (must pierce wire with test lead)? If so it is a ground or an issue in the light fixture, and yes you can have a ground issue and the tail light still work as it can seek ground through the other...

    Glow plug tip broke off while engine was running.

    The "bits" have to be pretty small to get out of the pre-combustion chamber, not saying they cannot damage an engine but the likelihood you would get in there while the bits are still there are relatively small, usually the engine chews them up doing whatever damage they might inflict and are...

    Glow Plug Replacement

    I personally don't care if you out them or not but do not kid yourself, they will happily sell them to the next guy that does not know any better, you think you were the first to buy those crap glow plugs?

    Probably not, they have already acknowledged that they don't think there is a problem.

    How To Repair HMMWV EESS S3

    Welcome to the SS forums, there is very little component level information on these because there are so many different manufacturers/models and they were never intended to be repaired just replaced, there are certainly many other components bad including that MOSFET that has a big hole in it.

    Glow plug tip broke off while engine was running.

    If it is truly in the cylinder then the only way is to pull the head, the injector/glow plug holes only get you to the pre-combustion cup not to the cylinder itself. You need to pull the injector and make sure it is not in the cup, that may or may not be the knock you are hearing. Usually when...
