He's referring to Ether or starting fluid as suggested by papakb. Does your truck turn over when you push the lever to run, or will it not crank at all? I had a similar experience when my truck showed up. They had to slave it to get it onto the transport, but it wouldn't start once it got...

If you're not opposed to a COTS solution, check this out: http://www.thosemilitaryguys.com/lighted-license-plate-kit-v2/ Comes with the packard connector splice already in place, so it's just plug'n'play to the tail light wire, not cutting involved.

No, they're bolted right onto the spindle.

I have LED front turn signals with standard bulb rear signals. With the light switch in Stop Light position my turn signals behave normally. With the switch in the Service Drive position (headlights on) the left front turn signal does not flash. The left rear does, and both right turn signals...

Little stuff over the weekend. I installed the updated, self-cancelling turn signal switch. It's great but the cancelling ring that screws into the steering wheel has too much flex in it so the pins were flexing out of the way when contacting the cancellation cam instead of actually...

I have the XD Series XD798 18" wheels with 37" Cooper Discoverer tires on mine. I like 'em.

My right rear hub output seal is blown and slinging oil on the inside of the wheel. I've ordered a new hub seal kit from eBay that includes the input and output seals, the spindle nut key washer and the plastic washer for the fill plug. A few questions: 1. Can someone point me to correct...

That is a thing of beauty.

Since this is a new-to-me truck, that's the plan. Thanks.

Getting ready to change my hub oil. What commercial product are people using for sealant between the cover and the hub? Permatex RTV Gasket for Gear Oil?

Good to know. I'm tackling this today.

Mine are like \-/ as well. Big time.

This is a great thread Shawn, thanks. I'm definitely going to do this because the inner tread block on my tires doesn't even touch the ground, so I'm definitely going to get some uneven wear on these $250/each tires. Time to pull some shims!

Thanks! I don't care what riderdan says about you, you're alright for a white guy. :lol:

Thanks Ryan. Do you have a source for the LEDs that you're using (the SuperBrightLED ones, not the ones that flickered).

I was actually looking at this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/HMMWV-LED-Dash-light-kit-best-humvee-Dash-bulbs-bright-LED-M998-replacement-/172710511105?hash=item2836594201:g:Rj0AAOSwjqVZMhEJ Looks nice and bright.
