    Is it possible you built it upside down?

    Duramax 6.6 and Allison Transmission Swap

    Sorry, I did not consider that, the 4L80 is just a FORB 3L80 which is the least efficient transmission GM ever produced and the 4L is not far behind, maybe not too big of a deal if one has enough horsepower to spare. (read not a big fan) The 4L is not one I would go to if I had a choice and the...

    Duramax 6.6 and Allison Transmission Swap

    Probably not any easier, would need to adapt an Allison. I have no idea who is doing these, last I heard it is a 25K swap with a used engine, probably higher now.

    Are all good trucks gone?

    The diffs are completely and totally incompatible, you will not be able to use anything from the 2006 but for the engine,trans and transfer case. Even with a body lift it is like stuffing 10lb of crap in a 5lb bag and this is a TOTALLY different animal than anything else you have ever worked on...

    HMMWV Fuel Lift Pump

    When you put it back together, use a little sealer on the plate gasket and thread the pump bolts in a little ways before tightening the smaller plate bolts, this will insure that the plate is lined up when you install the pump. Otherwise you could find it difficult to start the pump bolts. Do...

    HMMWV Fuel Lift Pump

    Are you sure about that Dorman part number? the Carter number looks good but not the Dorman.

    Are all good trucks gone?

    Maybe not the best choice for a Dmax conversion, with the 3:07 gears you will push the GM transfer case beyond its capabilities and it will likely grenade, in stock form the front shaft does not turn on the highway and it does not like to turn 2500 engine RPM which is what the Dmax/Allison will...

    HMMWV Texas Title Info

    That is all you could have provided them unless you were to do something deceitful.

    HMMWV Texas Title Info

    That is what Texas uses to set the license fee on trucks. That info was probably on the SF-97 also

    HMMWV Texas Title Info

    The max legal possible weight IS what it is rated for, called GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating)

    You could also get the somewhat restricted military vehicle plates, no inspection is required

    HMMWV Texas Title Info

    YES I forgot, the rear license plate must have a white light, sorry. I think strictly by law clearance lights may be needed and backup lights but have never had that come up, seems if it is not there they don't worry too much about it. The H1 has them but I have seen several Humvee's that were...

    Hmmwv starting issues

    Not sure where to start, what do you mean "cross battery negatives"? the batteries are in series ground to neg, that battery pos to the next battery neg, then the second battery pos to the "system. Also please define "cranks but never turns" by definition cranks means the engine is turning...

    HMMWV Texas Title Info

    All you need for state inspection is the standard stuff, headlights with high/low beams and a high beam indicator, turn signals, brake lights, windshield wipers, horn, brakes that work, mechanical parking brake, not bald tires, muffler, reflectors, at least one rear view mirror, etc. and of...

    HMMWV Texas Title Info

    Standard fare for Texas, SF-97+state inspection+ title application paperwork= blue Texas title, some may require a certified weight ticket. I don't think the current SF-97 actually says "on road" I think they just are not stamped "off road use only" The DuraVee's SF-97 was stamped "off road use...

    M11XX series, remove snout/rebuild front

    Normally I would wonder why anyone would want to go to a smaller radiator in a vehicle that has heating issues to begin with but with the temps soaring to 68F in July you probably will be OK, I would think you would need to change the stack and get the proper brackets. I would gladly swap with...
