I hope you dont mind me asking a stupid question - but how did the silicone do that much damage (or any at all) I just replaced a faulty 60A generator with a brand new one on my Truck at the weekend and I sealed up the hookup box with LOCTITE SI 5990 which is a high temp silicone sealant. Now...

Thanks 155mm - Im going to have a crack at following your guide to see if I can repair it or at the very least learn something!

Thanks PapaKB, I figured that the reading may be from the batteries and I was surprised by the heat, so I reckon you are right about it being shorted out inside. Ive purchased a replacement unit and I am going to follow 155mm guide to take it apart and see if I can fix it up as a spare.

I took possession of a 1986 M998 a couple of weeks ago and I Love it. When it arrived the batteries were dead, and one was leaking so I decided to purchase two new batteries, which I installed fully charged. When my truck is running the Volt Meter is sitting in the middle of the yellow and...

Trucklite published a document indicating that the root of the problem is the bulb in the turn signal stalk. A regular bulb allows current to flow in both directions, and when you add LED lights to your truck it can cause current to flow in a reverse direction back into the flasher unit causing...

Looks great

Thats a clever idea alright, looking forward to see its progression

Congratulations, and good luck - I see they threw in the spare tyre also - awsome

I see this truck is now back for sale on GP starting at 4K complete with the roll cage and Hawaii Seats

Wow, thats impressive, it looks almost like its solid copper, not individual strands Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Looks great, thanks for sharing your pictures. I had to change out my batteries recently, and while I was working on them I wasnt really paying attention to how I was moving the negative cable that goes from the Shunt to the battery, and the cable wasnt clamped. So now the lug on the shunt end...

Wow thats nice!

Here are two that are based in Europe, Ive bought from both before and always found them great. https://www.us-army-military-shop.de/index.php?language=en http://www.sotaparts.com

Hi Wire Fox, Thanks for that, i will check out Erik's Military surplus the next time. Im a newbie here so Im still trying to find my way around, I just found the instructions on the ebay listing useful - mind you we will see how my install goes!!!! My big problem is that Im based in Ireland...

I recently purchased a reverse light kit on ebay - I dont have it just yet so I cant comment on how the install goes. What the guy said in the description is that the Ambulance HMMWV has a reverse light, and that it taps power from the horn circuit. You can view the item and description here...

Congratulations on your truck - its beautiful. I was drooling over its pictures on the GP auction for a while - Would Love to own something like this.

Wow M813RC - I would really really appreciate that - Im trying to get as many reference pictures as I can. The primary reason for the repaint is that my truck was originally green, but was then sprayed tan, but the tan is now pealing in a lot of places and I figure the best thing to do is...

Thanks Tommy, I think I am going to try a USMC look, as authentic as I can - mind you I have a lot of research to do!!!! I would love to put some Irish markings on it but I think I will stay clear of that for now. In Ireland it is illegal to impersonate a member of the defence forces. So I...

Thanks M1010plowboy, I dont have any history on the truck - but when I saw it for sale the IBIS Tek bumper is what made it for me. I have some close ties to family around Peterborough in Ontario. Its been a few years since I was last there, but I love Canada!

Hi M813rc, Yeah, Ive had some fun on narrow country roads - mind you the other road users have had even more fun when they meet the Truck!!!! I dont think any of the markings are origional. I bought this truck from a guy in the UK who's hobby is rebuilding HMMWVs, I imagine that the markings...
