Here's Nates 4X4 carrier, Gerry cans, HiLift, Spare. I know it took me a while(like two years):oops: to get this mounted and it was only 4 carriage bolts!

There is only one sealant that sticks to CARC. It is flexible and sand-able. It also can be painted with CARC and the CARC will stick to it. Black 3M™ Marine 5200 Adhesive SealantIt has to be Black and it has to be 'Slow Cure'

EMP Ground 'wires' should be wide flat braids, like battery braided cable. Braided is less 'antenna' like.

Chris, As long as you're getting good at it, keep up the fun. I tried one of the Dorman split boots last week, not being in the mood for half-shafts in the heat wave we had here in Chicago. Squirt glue in the groove, squish together, let dry and clamp. A temporary fix just for experimentation...

Kevin, You're leaving out the South Side Ogden/Roosevelt Rd segment of the Chicago Memorial Day trip into the city!!!? Good thing we had a convoy of 40 MV's... and it was 7AM. Still scary.

I felt sorry for the shiney red Antique Firetrucks and classic Cop Cars(w/sirens!) but we had a crowd of 20 constantly around the MV. I loved the 'young' families where the vet starts explaining every single detail about the MV and it's ordinance to his young bride or his toddlers, that's the best.

At our last static display show a female vet from 'The Sandbox' talked herself into tears next to my HMMWV. It wasn't combat. It was the HEAT rollover training for a claustrophobic female in Kevlar and heavy gear explaining her terror of just the HMMWV simulator! And the length of her service...

I know that KsM715... ashes to ashes, dust to dust, steel to rust, and that dern HMMWV aluminum turn signal flasher housing which pretty much dissolved into a white aluminum oxide powder under my dash! No wonder the turn signals were getting balky the last few weeks, and after only 28 years! ;)

That's a civilian H1 Hummer, look at all that neat plastic trim interior. My wife would even trade in her 'commander seat' swivel mount M249 belt-fed for that AC.

I scrunched mine going in my garage:sad:, Kascar wants about $700, but their swap meet has a $400 used one. Shipping will get ya too because it's big and clumsy(and a fragile mesh heat shield).

parts... congressmen... sure, AMGeneral's (contributions/influence) over the politicians trumps the entire MVPA membership and this forum combined @ $3.2 Billion 2011 in sales alone. dream on. We are so appreciative... Does the LESO fine print actually say you have saved it? Or do you have to...

I think it would look cool, especially dual! I picked up the intake parts used on the HMMWV(not Hummer) and rotating them 180 degrees that would get them to fit under the hood. I have a HMMWV fording tailpipe with an additional 10 degree angle(drove my 6-1/2foot HMMWV into a 6foot garage...

Yeah... It takes all types...

Parasitic Drain Without a fuse block to help zero in on it, you have to get a multimeter and track it down. BO switch is a good call by KsM715, bad generator diode, unswitched accessories 24to12v power supply?

You're right if a local muni can use 'em, use 'em all. But the LESO says they still go back to the Govt for crushing when done, nothing different than now. It's AMGeneral calling the shots, and protecting their interests. The delivery label below says it all. LESO says a steady stream of parts...

Yup, I've seen feds chase down a lousy $1000 night vision tube, base on the nsn/serial number. Which reminds me, my title still has the original short VIN that gave the State of Illinois fits.

I don't like the sound of that, F&F all over again. The whole AMG strategy may be OMG we lost track of these dangerous non-roadworthy muni-HMMWV's so ban/de-title/de-plate all of 'em from the street. Because they can't tell the contraband from the legal. AMG is an influential player in Govt...

4 years, the first couple were tear apart and restore. After the Marines submarined it and deadlined it for 15 years, it was IROAN'd and auctioned at GA with low miles on it. NY/FBI agent had it for a while. But the Govt rebuilt 6.2 crank went on me at 4500 miles. Still has about 5000 miles, old...

Not to be too conspiratorial. hndrsonj, You hit the nail on the head, glad you said it and not me. It's a 'Fast and Furious' senario. The answer is... Govt won't, they will just ban them all from the road. Like AMGeneral wanted in the first place, and couldn't.
