Utterly consumed with jealousy!

91B army mechanic here. We never get to use the hoist with the 400amp units so we curse our superiors and break our backs.

Whoops, fat fingered my reply. Core charges and shipping may make a reman model not seem attractive. See my $11k+ quote from meltons. Months ago meltons had a reman motor selling for like 3k plus shipping but no core charge because it had been a canceled order or somet.hing

I'm looking at the takeout motors as well. People say good things about the eastern surplus motors? The risk in my perspective is having some webbing crack or something waste the whole investment. The alternative which im considering, for a couple thousand more, is a reman long block. As I...

I have a troop cover but no bows. This is the least popular and ugliest hmmwv configuration, but I love the versatility of a 2 man pickup with the covered bed. Eastern Surplus will solve my lack of bows problem for around $340 after shipping but I'd rather put my skills to work and build my...

I recall looking into this a year ago and there was some ac delete idler pulley bracket but it was stupid expensive, like $300+
