    Geared hub input seal

    Hello all, One of my input seals on my M998 geared hub started leaking a few weeks ago. I got new seals and shim gaskets and worked on it this past weekend. Unless I am missing it somewhere in the TM, I can't find anything that states how far the seal should be pressed in. My other one was...

    Speedometer keyway

    While troubleshooting an issue I've been working on, I noticed that the keyway for the speedometer key looks like the below picture. They keyway is not what I would call a well defined square profile. It almost looks rounded off. Is this how it is supposed to look? This T/C was removed from...

    Upper A-Arm bolts

    My rear tires have a bit of an inward camber to them so I thought I'd try removing some shims since I just put on some new tires. Is there a trick to getting that big bolt out? The nuts came off pretty easy but those bolts aren't budging. Any tricks you all have used? I'm about out of ideas...

    Midwest Military Equipment Gauges

    Has anyone tried the gauge set from MME? They are a bit pricey on their site but just wondered if anyone had tried them and if they are as plug and play as it says. MME 6 Gauge Kit For HMMWV/ Humvee (midwestmilitaryequipment.com)

    RPM Signal for 4L80E

    I replacing my 6.2 with a 6.5TD in my M998 a few months ago and we just swapped in a 4L80E. I went with the EZ-TCU controller and I need an RPM signal for it. I thought I could use the RPM sensor in the front of the 6.5td but I don't seem to have a signal from either pin though the controller...

    EZ-TCU Standalone Controller

    I'm in the process of swapping in a 4L80E into my M998. I bought the EZ-TCU to be my controller. Lot's of threads of people having issues getting this set up. If you have gone through this, do you care to share your settings with those that might be doing this in the future, like me? I'm...

    Fan Troubles

    My fan quit working some time ago on my M998 but I'm just now getting around to troubleshoot it. Previously, it started cycling on and off quickly one or two times, then would stay on to cool. But it would come on early, somewhere around 190-195 so it was running pretty much constantly once that...

    M998 6.2 to 6.5l swap questions

    Hello all, I have been reading a lot of threads on this swap as many others have done it but I'm not finding anything that answers my question. I would be surprised if this hasn't been answered but I didn't come across it. First, as I mentioned I have a M998 that came with the 6.2. I bought a...

    Air Box Modifications

    Hello all. I have an M998 that I'm doing a 6.2 to 6.5l TD swap on and was looking at all the air box to see what could be done to help with air flow to the turbo. The filter looks like about 1/2 of it is covered with that baffle. Has anyone trimmed that baffle and or the stack to help with air...

    Choctaw H140 spark problems

    Hello all, My Choctaw heater has decided not to work since it has gotten cold out and I could really use it. I have run the tests in the manual for no spark. I can't figure it out, I tested the terminals under the control panel and that was ok. I've tested that I have voltage to the capacitor...

    Chehalis Washington

    I have seen in the past things I would like to bid on in Washington but that is a long way from Indiana. Anyone have a connection they deal with in that area that could help with picking items up and getting them shipped to Indiana?

    Choctaw H140 - no ignition arc

    I picked up a new to me Choctaw H140 duct heater earlier this week. I was excited to get it home and fire it up and see if it was going to work for what I was hoping to use it for. But, right now I just have an expensive duct fan. Vent mode is the only mode that works. I filled it up with off...

    Heavy Duty Receiver Hitch Measurements?

    I would like to put a receiver hitch on my Humvee. I have found a couple on the auction site and the big "A" that look decent. I wondered if any of you that has one of these could take a measurement for me? I am curious what the dimension is from the floor to the inside bottom of the receiver. I...

    Soft top grommet

    I noticed that the middle of my soft top at the pillar is starting to bow upwards. As I investigated it, I noticed that one side has a rubber grommet, the other side doesn't and the side that doesn't looks to have been wollered out. I have not had much luck finding anything in any TM to help...

    Joining the HMMWV club

    Hi all. After watching auctions for the past several months, I finally pulled the trigger on a 1990 4 door out of Whitehall, OH. Now, I am just playing the waiting game. My EUC was submitted to the TSC on July 3rd. Who is the TSC by the way? Hopefully things go through quickly and I am able to...

I can get it back to the Indianapolis area, specifically Rushville if you want to split the costs. I can also store some items for a while...

    Fuel pressure sensor install

    I am installing some new gauges, EGT, boost and fuel pressure. I have found some info on here where others have installed the EGT and Boost but can't seem to find anything about the fuel pressure. Should this go before the small filter shown as 3 below or after the filter as shown in 1 or 2? If...
