    GOVPLANET/USMC latest EUC times?

    . Sad to say - but you know that of course they would say business days for sure now! :cool: Hate it for you. Especially for a piece of paper and a quick lookup about you. I sometimes think they do it that way intentionally.

    Bringing back to life a 2009 HMMWV M1165A1 from GovPlanet - total newbie, please help...

    If you don't want to drag out an extension cord, really HOT water in a cup or similar will do the same thing to soften the plastic line...

    GOVPLANET/USMC latest EUC times?

    . I wouldn't count on it before next year... Speed isn't their "thing". I have seen quite a few at 90 days recently. Holidays are coming. National Goof-Off Month Started late in November and it runs through The first week or two in January. I know you don't want to hear it, but at least...

    65 Kaiser M35A2 project starts

    . Just wondering if you could pile a little more on? :cool: Very Nice! I would say she is "earning her keep" for sure.

    Humvee cooling issue

    . Clean oil is definitely good news! Hopefully then a radiator cleaning - or maybe a new one. Based on other posts just before this - SHOPPING PRICE - seems to be a real key to happiness

    . Yep. Drive up, climb out and walk in to order and expensive cup of something and walk back out. Or maybe it would be more fun to slowly go through the drive through - if you aren't too tall. :cool:

    Humvee cooling issue

    . Not always - but is the engine oil clean? No milky looking gunk on the dipstick or inside the fill cap? Generally if the problem is that bad, I would think you would be gathering antifreeze in the oil by now. Might not. Could be that there is a leak straight into a combustion chamber -...

    Adding a winch

    . It might be worth searching for a Warn 18k 24v Electric winch. They were used on MRAPs and frequently show up on GovPlanet. One of the guys with a M1078 recently installed a 17,500# electric winch on his truck. A member named @chucky built the front "pocket" for it to live in as well as a...

    LMTV M1078 Transmission Fluid Change To ATF Write Up

    . I do have to ask why. Why use an oil that wasn't used by the military that got it where it needed to go for them. Why you would use AMS that is not approved by the transmission manufacturer is a bigger question in my mind. I know you don't have a warranty to be concerned with, but with the...

    Humvee cooling issue

    . That "calcium looking white stuff" looks like it could be restricting flow in the radiator. Might be worse where you can't see (or not). Di you have radiator shops in Florida? Old time shops that will "boil out the radiator"? It should look like copper and clean. That white stuff doesn't...

    Rebuilding after 15 years of storage

    . Sure looks like 383 Green as a really good guess to me. Maybe somebody else here can interpret the GM Color from that number. If you happen to have a Glidden paint available in Germany - we might be able so get the label off a can for you. Their sign says "Cover The World" but I don't...

    Harmonic Balancer installer

    . Turned slowly, that should work and not be a problem. Also going to suggest using the rear tire to rotate it if you have a manual transmission. (jacked up of course)

    Tie rod and drag link dust boot part number and links

    . Yes Sir! Those cab bushings are DANG EXPENSIVE. One of mine was completely gone when I got my M-1089. At the time, it just HAD to be fixed so I spent several hundred bucks. I grumbled until I installed them... So, for what it's worth, the difference in the "ride" was worth what I spent. I...

    LMTV M1078 and M1079 Mechanical Help Needed in Addison, Texas

    . Just so you know too... When you go update your post to remove your phone number - should you choose to do so - ANYBODY who replied to your post has to go back and delete that phone number from their post as well. Changing your original only fixes that post and not any "quoted posts" by other...
