Mangle it and throw it under the seat. If the planets align right and some cop actually stops you, and knows there should be a front plate, show him the plate and mumble something about offroading and intending to put it back on... ;)

Little chores - Picked up the three gallons of Dexron VI - Picked up and installed new battery terminals (old ones were cracked and deformed) - Adjusted three of the doors that needed adjusting - Lubed two of the window zippers - Scraped off all the decals to get ready for paint - Moved...

Does anyone know a vehicle year make that uses this transmission I can use to search with?

Any company doing business with the government has a code assigned, some larger companies have several. Your Lockheeds and Raytheons may have dozens.

I'm going to be doing a fluid & filter change on the transmission and have some general questions. The 4L80E trans is the same as any other GM 4L80E trans? I ask because 2006 M1165 is not a vehicle for the purposes of searching rockauto, napa, etc. Does anyone know a vehicle I can use to...

Weird, the troubleshooting guide mentions Dexron III, but the TM 9-2320-387-10 mentions VI.

I'm going to be doing a fluid & filter change on the transmission and have some general questions not worth starting a whole thread for. The 4L80E trans is the same as any other GM 4L80E trans? I ask because 2006 M1165 is not a vehicle for the purposes of searching rockauto, napa, etc. Does...

Installed. I went through the mat, looks neater and works fine. Second pic shows some edge trim I put on to keep from scratching up the stock too much.

That helps immensely! I didn't think it went that far back, and on the angled part of the floor makes sense.

Does anyone have a picture of the lower rifle mount? The internet is bereft of any photos in that area. The book picture isn't much help, and mounting it in the direction it shows seems to angle the rifle butt incorrectly.

Does anyone know the background on the tachs in the HMMWVs? Like, why? Is it to set RPM for the hydraulic winch using the hand throttle? My Moto Guzzi that should have a tach doesn't, and my HMMWV that doesn't really need one has one from the factory. :unsure:

CA sucks for much more than just MV ownership.... ;) I did my first three years of AF at Travis near Fairfield back in the early 80s; it was barely tolerable then.

Link to the Rapco paint?

None of my radjos go down that low....

Fording exhaust removed and replaced with a regular pipe Chairs washed and reinstalled Took it for a test drive to get a feel for how clean seats and floors feels... :sneaky: Truck got a LOT of looks. I only went a mile or so down around the lake and back. On the return leg I approached a...

Another shot. It looks like a tiny pick-axe, but there's not hole for a handle.

Pulled all the chairs out and lifted or removed the matting- all San Yermo mud under there. I started with a putty knife and scraped the mud up, then mowed the front yard. That brief break dried the little bit of mud left, so I vacuumed up as much as I could, then got the hose and a scrub...

Some years ago I owned a 1986 Ford Ranger XLT with the off-road package. I wanted an air horn in it, and this is how it was done. I sourced the air horn from a steel scrapyard, it was attached to the roof of a semi-tractor body that had been scrapped. I also bought the dual-needle air pressure...

Tractor Supply has some for $3.69

Ah, flare wrench. Thanks, thought I was missing something... :)
