Friend sent me these. We were wondering about the camo. It looks familiar to me but I can't place it. The tags indicate owner is a veteran.

I'd read in a post that some people have had trouble getting CARC paint and thought I'd relay my experiences. Recently I got a McClarin helmet top and contacted their sales department about some missing parts. I also asked them about the camo paint they do and what colours they used. The...

Over 700 miles, round trip. 2 fuel stops, 2 meal breaks, 2 dog breaks, 1 mountain pass, 1 shortcut (got lost in the clouds), 4 naps. Didn't really think about loading a 85" wide top behind a vehicle that is 71" wide. My rear view and passenger mirror were useless and I only sort of had some...

You can read the Wikipedia page, for some insights. Here's another article. Lots of ads in the 2nd one. Think a properly outfitted Deuce would be ok? The 2nd article I linked mentions you cross over 900 dunes and it recommends no heavy trucks. I'm posting here because my Deuce has been...

Simultaneously making every other humvee slightly more rarer/valuable. My M1114 body at the scrap yard. 610 lbs...got $62 for it.

Ok, so, I have a M1097R1. Now, according to the literature and the auction listing it was supposed to have a 6.5l, but it doesn't it has the 6.2l and it's still a 3 speed. Bought a M1114 with a wrecked front end that came with a 6.5l, turbo & 4 speed. The plan was to grab whatever could be...

Hope I'm not stepping on the toes of the 1 bidder, who could be on SS. GSA Auctions, General Services Administration, Government Site for Auctions (realestatesales.gov) Buyer is responsible for completing the End Use Certificate and bringing the aircraft into compliance with 14 CFR Chapter or...

Can't do a search because I don't know what it is or even where it goes. It was a loose part that was on the floor of a M1114 with a destroyed front end that I bought for parts. The attachment pins are the kind that are somewhat quick release. Obviously, it must go somewhere that you...

See attached flyer. I've brought my M35A2 in the past and have encouraged other military vehicle owners to bring their vehicles, especially those from the Vietnam era.

So, I did a search but there wasn't much there. Has anyone driven with FLIR? How fast or slow is recommended? Articles written by manufacturers are self serving. Would vehicle mounted be better than wearing a personal device? I await the first post saying I don't need this.

So, my state won't license a humvee for the road. Doing a little research, I found that many people register vehicles in Montana under a company they create. Most, probably 99.999% do this to avoid taxes as Montana has no vehicle tax. I bought my humvee in the state I live and already paid...

Riddle me this: My M1097R1 has a GVWR of 10,000 (per SF97), truck weight 5,600 lbs, carrying capacity 4,400 lbs. I don't have the slant back on my truck and it just looks like a 4 door pickup. According to Wikipedia, this would make it a 3/4 ton. According to this random equipment site I...

I'm gearing up to start the actual camper part of the build so thought I'd start a master thread here. I call it a mini home because it's much more independent than a camper. I'll post links to all that I've done if you really got a lot of time to waste at work. So...I started my process...

BLACK 2.0 - The world’s mattest, flattest, black art material by Stuar – Culture Hustle USA Granted, it's expensive. Though they do give a discount between sizes, so maybe they would give a discount for volume. What I'm wondering is, would it be looking for trouble or just plain stupid to...

So, for me the hmmwv is a fun vehicle. I have a Subaru wagon that acts as my daily driver, but it's really poor for carrying weight. I also have an M35 that I'm converting into a tiny home so that won't be much use anymore for hauling stuff. Cue the humvee. Now, I don't need a pick-up truck...

I just bought a 2007 M1097R1. I also own a 1971 M35A2, that I've had for 6 years. I'm not shy about asking questions, even if they sound dumb. If you don't like people that are newbies you're probably gonna want to avoid my threads. In the short term, I have to replace the fuel tank -...

So, I'm putting a Red Dot system in my truck for a/c and heat, specifically their 2300 model which is designed for off-road applications. The manual states that the unit is supposed to be mounted "flat" somewhere, on the ceiling, floor, whatever. Thing is, space is getting a little tight in my...

Is there a way to increase the capacity of the deuce, say to 3 or 3.5 ton without spending a fortune? Would custom built springs make enough difference, for instance? I'm pretty far along and committed to all the changes I've made in my deuce so moving to a 5 ton is not an option.

One sold at an auction in France on 4/3. Anyone here get it? I put in a bid based on the pre auction estimate (10k - 20k Euro), but it quickly went out of sight beyond my meager budget. With premium, it sold for around 51k Euro.

Friend of mine is doing an engine swap on his M61A2, and though he is registered here he rarely posts so I thought I would pass some pics along and some general info. He also is changing the transmission to a Spicer 6453 He's relayed to me that the L10 is longer and taller, so he's raising the...
