    Rust proofing & protection

    I was thinking that would be the only solution , what do the latest Hmmwv's have in the frame rail's , by way of drainage points ??

    Rust proofing & protection

    Just a thought . As the chassis rails are open either end & are sealed front to back , how do you guys get the water & sand out of the chassis & rust protect , to prevent internal corrosion . answers on a post card :?

    Is their a link or a post which details the age of the truck , by the frame number . Production dates by frame etc , I did come across one somewhere years ago , but I cannot find it now ? Found it , it was a previous post on this forum , problem solved.

    Demilling

    What a waste of parts ! , Great for all us Hmmwv owners , that they will only go up in price , but wouldn't it be great if the spares price came down due to over supply .....

    HMMWV VIN Numbers

    I found mine behind the front bumper , in the right hand chassis , on a factory wired on tag , it was a little rusty , so all you have to loose is 20 mins , it's a 50/50 shot
