    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Very nice. That is the setup I am planning to go with except maybe 17". 20's look good though. 37's?

    Which paint did you use? Looks really nice. I need to do the same.

    12V system and RFID push button start

    Yeah, I saw they added something to their FAQ section of their website about 24V systems. Maybe they will let me exchange mine...lol.

    Alternator Questions

    Yeah, I guess one of my 12V accessories is drawing too much current when off. I let mine sit of a couple weeks with everything connected. The rear battery was down to ~5V, but the front one was 12.5V.

    Did that fix hold up?

    12V system and RFID push button start

    It would be a very straight forward modification to make it compatible with 24V. I guess it just depends on if there is a big enough market to justify it for them. Here is the 24V-12V DC converter I used for brake switch...

    12V system and RFID push button start

    Probably around $800 but I bought a lot of extra waterproof terminal parts, wire and specific crimpers. I won't have to buy anything when I install accessories in the future. You can find the RFID system for less than $500. You can get RFID kits for ~$40, but you get what you pay for...

    12V system and RFID push button start

    Here you go. The fob is set to manual mode (push unlock button to activate instead of automatic with proximity) so you can see it activate. Cold start and 40 degrees in the garage. https://youtu.be/__1bpB_mRVY

    Good to know. Thanks!

    12V system and RFID push button start

    I will look into it. Shouldn't be too difficult as you would probably just have to tie into the neutral safety switch so you can't start while in gear. For the push button start, I just looked at manuals online to see which manufacturers had the features appropriate for the HMMWV. I used...

    12V system and RFID push button start

    Thanks guys, it's not too complicated. Just takes some planning and google.

    12V system and RFID push button start

    So no telling how many miles are actually on it. Maybe I got lucky and it's the original one.

    12V system and RFID push button start

    RFID push button start Black box is the RFID ignition module. I am using 24V relays with 12V coils to switch RUN and START. I didn't want to modify the vehicle harness, so I made small harnesses that plug inline and/or use mil terminals. Three wires on the left replace the STOP RUN START switch...

    12V system and RFID push button start

    First post! Got the itch to pick up a HMMWV last summer (first military vehicle), and I found 86 M998 2-man for a really good price on Gov Planet. The inspection on Gov planet listed quite a few "issues" (no working exterior lights, dripping leak from transfer case...), but it had the front...
