    Aftermarket wheels and tire sizes

    Cepek Makes wheels that are rated for the Humvee/Hummer. As far as I know, they are the only one other than what AMG put out and maybe some rare wheels made by Hutchinson for testing. If you want to go cheap and use Hummer H2 wheels, you have to modify them and they are not rated for a Hummer H1...

    New injection pump,still no start!

    OK well1 the nipple that the return hose from the injectors is attached too is not just a nipple, it has a glass plunger with a spring inside of it. That can get stuck with bits of decaying return hose after thirty some odd years. You can remove it and try to blow through it. Looking through it...

    Short exhaust

    Those were used on some of the Humvees that had the Avenger System mounted. No real place that you can just go and buy them.

    Wheel bearing replacement

    Take it to a welding shop. They can weld a bead on the race and when it cools off it will shrink down enough to almost fall out by itself.

    It will probably try to take the main body wire harness on the smoky ride too!

    Blown 6.2 any suggestions

    I have used their rebuild kits on Chrysler 727's and one Turbo 400. They leave out one of the bands, because it never really wears out, unless someone constantly adjusts it over and over. That band will start slipping before the material wears through, unless someone has gone beyond spec on the...

    Blown 6.2 any suggestions

    The 4x4 transmissions have a much shorter tail shaft. It can be swapped into a two wheel drive trans, bug it loads from the front so the trans needs to be taken all apart. You could buy a B&M rebuild kit and do the job yourself. The kit comes with very good step by step instructions.

    Open up your Parts TM and learn what that little thing is. It isn't mysterious.

    How much more inventory of HMMWVs does GovPlanet have?

    I figure that there are at least 50,000 Soft Skinned Humvees sitting around here and there. Hopefully they don't start a scrapping program to clean up the dusty corners of the Military Bases.

    How do I remove a broken glow plug from 6.2 diesel

    It will fall into the pre chamber not the cylinder. You need get some shop manuals from various sources so you can learn about how your engine is designed yourself. Internet info might cost you lots of money in repair bills, because you followed bad advise from someone who also doesn't know the...

    Cooling upgrade system.

    So what you DO know is that a small percentage of GM Turbo Engines had issues with #8 cylinder cracking do to poor cooling? If that were the case and not "The Queen of Cheap, General Motors" not designing it's block to withstand a certain amount of core shift during casting to not allow for...

    What goes on the hood? Windshield Pillar?

    The louvered Combat Identification Panels don't go over the upper hood grille. There is one that goes behind that is pined in place by cotter pins through studs and one that to the front that covers the front grille. It is tied in place.

    steering wheel cover? anyone use one?

    If you wrapped that in sections of cord, you could more easily retighten it if it were to loosen up over time.

    Humvee Pipe Doors

    If you incorporate the latches from the X Doors, your doors may not fall off in the event of a roll over.

    What does the "Sensor, Air Charged Crankcase Depression Valve" do?

    The CDR's get gunked up. You might try cleaning it out with some diesel fuel if it is a non fording type.
