Driveline racket is very likely coming from wheel end spider gears with excessive lash. There is a thread here on adjusting this. Also check the hub lube level.

I searched "gladhand" in the FMTV forum and could only find discussions of the EMERGENCY side leaking. Sounds like one of the checkvalves.

I think that is a M1 not a M1A1 and I think it's a '41 model. Incredible find!!

Don't go on the last day. Was all set to go to the Houston exhibit and called to verify it was open and they told me they just packed up for the next city.

Welcome RedBarnes. The M880 series which includes the 890 2WD truck only were 1976 and 1977 models. While yours is nearly the same thing, it was not part of that contract. Should make an excellent reliable daily driver.

Oh heck Garrett, Steelsoldiers is as amusing as ever. Now we have "how do I remove the blinker from my HMMWV" and "my LMTV transmission won't drive anymore after I took the front driveshaft off". Glad you're doing OK. Passed through Dry Creek on my way to Alexandria a month ago, but didn't...

Aw, leave the rear exit exhaust. It's too fun to pull alongside pedestrians and ask "need a smoke?"

Yes people want them. I think they are the same as CUCV, M715, M37.

Most vendors will not be paint and body experts so I don't think it's reasonable to expect they can tell you how many gallons to buy to paint a HMMWV. If you want a Kermit the frog colored glossy HMMWV, paint it with Gillespie. If you want the factory color in a CARC substitute, but American...

My apologies nspctr1, I though you were asking about the blinker or flasher module under the dash. I'm gonna leave the HMMWV questions to rwh from now on.

You want 383 Green which is FS 34094. Rapco paint is way too glossy and looks completely wrong. You want to buy American Coatings paint from armytankguy on ebay. Listed as CARC green substitute.

Oh. Look at the blinker, there is a big shiny nut that has the 3 wires coming out of the middle of it. Unscrew the nut, righty tighty lefty loosy, and the wires will come out with a plug attached. Inside is a plug with a 3 prong connector. These connectors are used on military trucks and...

Our GP rep reported that about 20% of winning bidders back out of the purchase for a plethora of reasons.

??? Unscrew the nut on the Cannon plug.

What most of us do is take caliper diameter measurements of the oil seal bore and shaft ride surface and go to our local bearing supply house and let them figure it out.

Welcome. PLEASE dont buy a toyota. I would disconnect the drag link and see if it's the steering box binding or the axle king pin bearings. Then whichever will need disassembly and lubrication. Should steer fairly easily.

Did you call White Owl Parts? Sam Winer Motors? Lotsa parts available for these engines. Problem is nobody sells very many of them so they are typically not advertised.

Dude, 45 mph in first gear calculates to 5000 rpm. Not gonna happen.

Some civilian Dodge Power Wagons models used the dual wheel setup.

Yes, if your truck has the heavy channel with loops right behind the cab, it has been converted into a shelter carrier. Shelters look cool but they make the truck a bit top heavy and create a lot of wind drag. Also, troop seats and shelter brackets are mutually exclusive accessories.
