    Fuel Issue

    Notorious for buring out GP's....Per AM general, the only "Authorized" box is the S3 smart start from KDS, not from Narton, but KDS. I asked AMG nartron, they said those are not installed into production trucks, only the KDS S3. go figure....I've personally never had a bad KDS S3, but I have had...

    Issues with SF-97

    most states allow for a "statement of facts". When I go into DMV sometimes many months after purchase and even pickup, I explain via a statement of facts that there is a lag time due to EUC, transportation and official paperwork to title, this has never been an issue. Proof to them is the date...

    Issues with SF-97

    As usual, a bunch of whiners ruin it for the rest of us....you would think your dealing with escrow on a property or something. Because this purchase is most likely the first time anyone has had to deal with govt agencies for approval, they just have no idea how much is out of the hands of GP...

    Only REV trucks have 12k brakes...all A2's,ECV, M1151, M1152 etc...have 12in rotors....A2 used vented, latter used solid. only the REV uses Wilwood brakes. AFAIC, Recentering the diff is a waste of time...

    Registering a Hmmwv in California

    Because DMV is stupid and can't read or even fill out there own forms correctly....the vin location section of a calif vin verification form states: vin/eng "mark both if motorcycle", says nothing about 2 locations required for autos

    Info/help on Axle Upgrades and brake parts

    The diffs on A2's are 2:73, newer trucks use 3:08 diffs, the drive shafts are larger and so are the diff yokes and u-joints.

    Do serial numbers ever change?

    For all intents, the controlled item is the dataplate....when these trucks are at MMA or Red river being gone through, the dataplates are most like removed and stuck back on to what ever truck. i just bought an M998 that has a brand new A2 body on it, the truck is a 1987 and the dataplate is...

    Sets of hard doors..

    The sooner everyone realizes the only thing for certain is that everything is Uncertain in regards to demil requirements for parts, the better off y'all will be. GP Sells trucks with x-doors, others without...DLA and MC inspectors seem to have a varying position on this for whatever reason. I...

    Difference between M998 and M998A1 & Engines

    Ummmm, M998A1's do not and never had turbo motors, Turbo did not come out till M1113 and that was mid 2k. The 6.2L was mfg discontinued and the 6.5NA was the replacement. The 6.5 as a direct replacement was referred to as "detuned", production trucks got a slightly different motor with more HP...

    Sets of hard doors..

    This Dream just won't die....and if I had them made, why would I let you be the distributor? the hard part is the fabrication. Now if you want to pony up the working capital and fund this pipe dream, I'm all ears. the only way this price gets down is haveing them Mfg'd offshore and in a very...

    While I've had leaky clutches, it's always been solved with an NOS fan clutch

    HMMWV Fan Clutch Demons - Please Advise

    The only thing that keeps the fluid in there is a large o-ring. You can plug off the fan outlet with a brass fitting and bleed the system, it doesn't know there isn't a fan clutch installed. but if you have a serous over pressure, you will only find this with a PS tester...either buy one on eBay...
