    hmmwv tachometer installation

    AAAAAND, it worked. replaced tachometer sender. MAN, what a chore, nut was frozen on the drive block, took considerable time for Kroil to soak in and judicious use of a rubber mallet to loosen things up. Ceaned threads, started engine to make sure the "drive" was working, then I installed...

    Question about Dual oil filter kit 57K4411 4330-01-533-5641

    Anyone actually using one? Difficult to install (from parts/pictures, it looks deceptively simple, a lot like every other one hour project that's turned into a three hour grudge match maybe)? In the interest of protecting the engine - dusty environment or no - and adding just a bit of extra...

    That's what I was going on about. Interesting that I've visited about a dozen sites and only found TWO that stock the HOSE (it's not to be found on eriks, easternsurplus, others) including Kascar and macmotors at $36 and $29 respectively. I have it on good authority by a vendor here (and on...

    Quick question about the hose, PN 12338591-1. I've also seen this listed as just 12338591. What is the difference? I went to several parts sites and entered first one, then the other, some sites found one, not the other. Hummerpartsguy links BOTH parts to the same one (NSN). ? Inquiring...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Thanks, Ryan. In for a penny, in for 53 pounds. I made an offer, it was accepted, set's on the way. I figure if this saves me even ONE trip to a shop in future for a repair I can do at home (since I'm disassembling the thing anyway), it'll be worth the investment.

    Is this set more specific to the 6.5 engine or is it general, covering 6.2s as well?

    I've seen references to this mod., but no specifics that I can find, easily, without wading through dozens of pages of threads... Do you have a parts list for this? Thanks. Norm

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Thanks. I was going to put a radius on the side panels with a router before sealing/painting the wood. Not too sure how it'll hold up under future uses, but it's fun putting it together.

    1989 am general humvee need advice

    In for a penny, in for a pound. HAve you spoken to an expert (in Maryland they're called "specialists" and the one I spoke with was like someone from the proverbial fairy godmother department of the Army) at your local MVA (DMV) regarding these vehicles? Looked up the applicable regs online...
