Sure everyone here knows the HMMWV is setup to allow a full size pallet in the back. But figured I'd remind all the new people of this. It can be very helpful! Housemate works at the local small town American Legion bar. The ditzy manager forgot to do their alcohol order for the next two...

Thought some might find this interesting. Mounting a Stuhna anti-tank missile system to the turret hole of an ECV. (and of course the inside of the windows are all fogged over... yup, it's a HMMWV)

I asked a friend who welds to make me a license plate holder that attaches to the rear of the trailer on the leveling leg connection point. Looks like it turned out great! I need to paint it, install the plate (and light)

In the above you can see the end of the speedometer cable broke off in the speedometer. Does anyone have a clue how I can get it out of there? thanks!

You’ve got to see this to believe it. circuit 71C, windshield wiper circuit. Apparently was rubbing on the steering shaft, shorted, welded itself to the steering shaft knuckle, and then (luckily) broke. Argh, now I have to find both ends and get this fixed, but could have been worse!

My 1988 M998 has a 6.5L (Detuned) and the 3 speed transmission. The head shield on the cross over pipe is banging horribly (and will likely fall off soon). A previous owner used some metal tie straps to try to hold it in place, but needless to say that isn't lasting. Which cross-over pipe do...

I'm trying to match original stencils on my M1101 trailer. Looking at numerous GovPlanet auctions, I've failed to find a font that seems to match the Stencils. i.e. Does anyone know the Size of the above stencils and a possible font for them or somewhere I can buy them precut for painting...

I just finished repainting my M1101, and now I need to reassemble it. I can't find a diagram anywhere that shows the cargo cover bow parts, specifically the screws/bolts required to hold the solid metal chunks (3) that go between the bows. (Mine had simple pointed machine screws in them, they...

I just got new door skins, and realized the weather seal on my doors is pretty damaged in spots. Started looking for new seals and so far I'm failing. The weather seal for the soft doors in TM-9-230-280-24P (part 1), figure 316, is part #12. Listed as: 21022103-150IN So a bulk seal, 150in...

Was wondering if anyone knew how fast the engine needed to be spinning for the 200 AMP generator, to actually output 200 AMP - 24V? I'm assuming there is some sort of rule for shelter carriers or other similar high amp users to pulling the throttle out and having it enough to power various...

Some of you might be aware of my recent saga of head/head gasket problems and getting that stuff all replaced. I noticed yesterday that when I accelerate, there is a trail of black smoke. It's not a _LOT_, but it is visible. So I assume there is simply too much fuel going into the engine. At...

I've been going to rapco for a bit over a week now and their website appears to be completely broken. I emailed them, but no response. Anyone know what is going on? I'm certainly reluctant to do a paint order if their website has been broken for a couple of weeks now. (Mobile it will mostly...

I found a newer copy of the TM 9-2330-392-13 & 14 then what is currently available in the TM section. Date is 07-Dec-2012. It is labeled as "DISTRIBUTION STATEMENT A - Approved for public release, distribution is unlimited." Assuming admins/moderators want me to, I can attach it to this post...

I'm new to heavy trailers, and military trailers. I recently got an M1101, and I'm slowly trying to understand all of the safety features and make sure everything is working as expected. It's a 2010 Silver Eagle M1101. How difficult should it be to pull the breakaway brake cable and activate...

I've got the TB-43-0209 with a date of 31 Oct 1990. I've used it to layout the paint for my M998. I recently got an M1101 trailer, but I don't see that in the document. Is there an existing tailer in the document I should use as a reference, or is there an M1101 specific camo pattern...

Driving yesterday I got caught in a rain storm, no big deal got a little wet. But I had to pull over due to the fogging on the inside of the glass. The fan, on high, didn't have enough airflow to keep the window clear.. (ended up clearing the window with my hand until I got somewhere I could...

I was under the HMMWV today working on the shifter assembly. While I was there I noticed there was just a random spring hanging from the parking brake handle area! Anyone know what this is and where it goes?

I've got a 6.5L GEP in my HMMWV. Last Saturday I dove 2 miles into town, 2 miles back and right when I pulled into the driveway she started puking coolant all over the ground. By the time I realized what had happened, the temp gauge when from 210 to 240+. I shut it down right away, but now...

I took apart my (old) 12-bolt rim today, one that was given to me as a spare tire by the previous owner. A few of the studs (that hold the wheel halfs together) are badly rusted, and two of them are loose in the wheel (the hole doesn't look loose, more like the stud is damaged.) Does anyone...

Tires on my HMMWV were put on by the previous owner, prior to when I bought it last August. These were NOS with DOT dates from 2006-2011. Well one of the tires is starting to show some minor cracking in the sidewall, and other is showing MUCH larger cracking in the sidewall. I started looking...
