That is the same part of I35 I hydroplaned a little 1/2T pickup at speed pulling a large trailer full of pickup "caps". in the late 70s. I was watching the world coming at me through the driver side window, already had the wheels at full left lock as I headed off the right side of the highway...

Looks like HPG has it https://www.hummerpartsguy.com/NAMEPLATE-FAN-AC-HEAT_p_24900.html

All the ones I have had are hydraulic, does not mean there are no gas shocks out there. Gas shocks are more expensive and require frequent replacement in heavy duty applications so I would assume the government does not like purchasing them.

Only gas shocks rebound on there own. EDIT, I am not sure if the M1123 had gas shocks or not, just about all the shocks I see for sale are obviously not gas

$80 sounds better than $120 for a repop.

I wonder what this means? **You will need to cut and remove the old rod style hood hooks and weld in these hooks in its place.**

You can post to YouTube and then place a link here. What model HMMWV?

I would highly recommend doing all the maint described in the TMs, change all the fluids, the reduction hubs for example only have a few ounces of gear oil in them, neglecting those as well as other items can cost you dearly in the end and you have no history to go on so you have to start at the...

I believe he was talking about a multi fuel engine, the 6.5L has hydraulic valve lifters and there is no adjustment.

If it were me I would put 500-1000 miles on it while attending to the many other issues you will have before going back to the engine. This is assuming you have already changed all the filters and oil.

Again, I would put some HOURS under LOAD before I would do anything, you might just need to re-seat the rings after having all the oil washed off the cylinder walls. You are not going to cause any more damage.

Never, unless I am troubleshooting a problem.

Considering where you are it may be easier to put new brushes it it, not sure how the surplus market is there, who knows they may be on every street corner :)

AGM is the way to go, I don't want the wife sitting on top of a hydrogen bomb. As stated the 31s are probably too long

IMHO cheap batteries can lead to very expensive problems like fried EESS boxes, ($600 plus) Also if you are thinking of taking the "cheap" road with a HMMWV you have a long row to hoe again just my opinion. Just make sure you tie what ever you use down, just about any battery can be fit in there.

HPG in offline for some reason, it may come back up soon, or not who knows.

That is freaky close to the one I built Must have seen a picture and it stuck!

That surprises me somewhat, when I was importing Unimogs US customs was absolutely anal about any foreign material being on board. Several times they would be on "hold" by customs, the customs agent would point over to a spot at the corner of the parking lot and tell me to drive/drag them to...

I love these chargers. Marketed under different names but as far as I can tell are all the same...

Turn it on and give it a good tap or two, sounds like your brushes are worn or stuck.
