    Well the HMMWV didnt make the trip to the beach this year...

    Too much to overcome in 3 months. Plus steep learning curve. The TMs are helpful by diagnosing problems vs just buying the next fix was too expensive for a route to success. In the end i had 2 problems left to overcome that were deal breakers for this year. Radiator overheating and black smoke...

    Free acumulator for hmmwv AC. 5715175 / 01-460-2456

    For some reason I bought 2 receiver dryers for my 1151. This one does not go to this truck. I'm not sure why I did it. If you want it you can have it for free. It's $60 from Hummer parts guy where I purchased it. I opened the package, so it's not air sealed now. I have it in a zip lock bag...

    Sheppard Steering Gears are a PITA

    There is a post in here that brought that up. The concensus was all the various components and linkages would need to be changed to the same that are with a saginaw set up. More expensive then repairing the old gear. I spoke with a shop owner I'm friends with that works on commercial fleet...

    Sheppard Steering Gears are a PITA

    Ok. I dialed one of the relief valves all the way and it did nothing about preventing the steering stops from contacting. I can't find any reference to it in the TMs. Am I just chasing a ghost. Has anyone else done this? I've talked to an offroad shop and an avid offroader who works on his own...

    Sheppard Steering Gears are a PITA

    So my new to me M1151A1 had a massive steering gear leak when it arrived. Not so subtley hidden by flex seal or something. After the 1 mile drive to my house from the drop off point, It was dripping off the truck at idle. Within a day the brakes were acting up and I realized they were on the...

    Where did everyone mount their pulse tech power distribution boxes? Did you put a converter to the 12 volt lead? Or right to the battery? What's best practice? Did you put a fyse in line on the hotleads? If so what amperage? I plan to run the following 12v items Garmin Power ports for cell...

    Installing back up lights on the Humvee

    Not to resurrect an old thread, bit it's pretty spot on. Will this kit allow me to tap into the transmission for the backup lights or do I still need source the 3/4" thread adapter bushing? Thanks.

    Pitman Arm Removal?

    "Looking on one of the 4x4 boards they all recommended a product called PB Blaster to loosen the connection. I am a believer in that product, now! Worked well. I took the longest ratchet that was in the drawer and two long extensions to allow me to really torque it up from just beyond the...

    Any particular problems with soft doors in an 1151?

    My budget for this year is about out with a bunch of unanticipated expenses on my 1151 purchase. I'm hopeful to get this thing back on the road in time for an offroad beach vacation this summer. Likely will take them off driving on the beach anyway. I am strongly considering putting soft doors...
