Yes I just got it and am doing my initial fluid changes. So far I’ve done the engine, transmission, transfer case, and rear differential. The diff has been the only fluid that appeared to be cloudy. Planning on doing the front diff and hubs tomorrow so fingers crossed.
I’m letting it run with the drain port open (obviously not driving it anywhere. Just letting the engine run) Looking to see if any coolant starts getting pumped out. So far nothing so I would hope that means there’s no internal coolant leak.
No I didn’t have any coolant come out. I just had gear oil come out of the fill port. It was enough to make me wonder if there was another fill point for these cooled differentials. That or maybe water got into the diffs some how? The gear oil did look a little milky.
Was changing the fluids in my differentials tonight and ran into an issue. So the first thing I do is open up the fill port and out pours fluid. It was a decent amount and yes I was parked on level ground. So either there’s another fill Location for these cooled differentials that I don’t know...
I just received my euc for my Humvee that’s in Yermo, California. Looking for a reliable hauler to Pensacola, FL. I thought I had one lined up through Veritread but in the time I accepted the bid and now (roughly 2 1/2 months) they say that things have changed and now want an additional $700. I...

Because everything I’ve read says that the title definitely comes with an off-road only stamp on it. Florida is very particular about titling these things. If it is titled with the off-road stamp it’s becomes a HUGE pain in the ass to get it street legal. But if I have a clean sf97 or just a...
Thanks man! Really appreciate the info/pics. Very helpful! So I've been debating getting the sf97. I've gotten conflicting info on whether or not it has “for offroad use only” on it. If it doesn't that will be helpful but if it does I can't use it anyways. My Wife is an attorney so she's...
Still waiting on my euc to clear on my M1165. It’s been 2 months so hopefully not too much longer. Was hoping/planning to put 40’s on mine as well. Did you have to move your exhaust to be able to fit them? Is there any concern about them flexing up into the fiberglass hood? Any idea what your...
