    M1097R1 Parking Brake Stuck Down (off)

    I've got an M998 that does that occasionally as well. Twisting the cable adjustment usually resolves it. I haven't chased my cable yet either. Unfortunately I'm not familiar enough with the TM to know where to find that information. There's a retrofit access panel in the bed of some HMMWV's...

    The cable is intermittently binding on something most likely.

    Up to Date Super Singles for the Deuce?

    Sorry, those have been gone for almost ten years. It's worth checking with feltz. They might have some.

    Superthermal's M813 Build, THE BOT

    I don't have any detail to add. I remember thinking at the time that it needed to be uniform pressure, and to not drag. It has been a decade ago... Since then we put a new transmission in @RGS20inophir 's deuce and I may be conflating some of what happened during that. Time flies when...

    So my company car is now a Jeep Sahara: My thoughts on an FMTV vs a Jeep of today and yesterday

    Me, deaf ears? Only literally. I'll change my mind on any topic, in any direction, given more and better data... The Jeep compass is a seriously capable offroad vehicle?

    So my company car is now a Jeep Sahara: My thoughts on an FMTV vs a Jeep of today and yesterday

    You see the pic of the compass wearing it. Do you believe that's a capable off road vehicle?

    Best Battery Opinions

    I had Hawkers that went >12 years. At 17 below, the vehicle equipped with them was the only thing that started. I have no experience with the Odyssey.

    Best Battery Opinions

    Hawkers. You said "best" , not "best value" or "best for the money" or "good enough".

    Another ill conceived and poorly executed trip by 98G

    Uneventful. Home and scrubbing it out. Contemplating a repaint. SF97 says 1994. Data plate says 1957. Obviously the latter is correct. It's in surprisingly good shape.

    I don't see any differences between the major manufacturers. What do you use for a DD?

    Given a large enough sample size, you can find something to support any position.

    So my company car is now a Jeep Sahara: My thoughts on an FMTV vs a Jeep of today and yesterday

    We've got a 2021 Gladiator. It feels enough like the HMMWV while driving it (and vice versa) that I've reached for controls in the wrong place while driving each of them. The Gladiator has about twice the power and twice the tow rating. A higher reasonable cruising speed. It's LOUD, with a...
