    Tips to short list HMMWVs up for auction on Gov Planet

    Some say emissions, some say crash rating. The link on sticky just tells you it's a no no.

    Do HMMWVs / m998s pass emissions test?

    AZ is stupid easy to pass a diesel emission test. Half the time they don't even hook up the machine when testing my tdi's... Blows a 0.00 opacity when I see it spew coal.

    After market seats or alternate seats for HMMWV / m998 ?

    Compared to the inflation of the surplus seats on eBay, those are attractive. I have mocked up a spare kirkey racing seat and I like it. Just double the price of those ^^

    Watch out for the ban hammer. They don't like talk of anything title related to hmmwvs here.

    I need help with HMMWV 12-bolt wheels

    I lather it as you oil a normal o ring. I'm sure you can go over board with it, and still have a good seal. As mentioned, let it cure before you air them up.

    I need help with HMMWV 12-bolt wheels

    I buy mine on EvilBay. 7.50$ each shipped. They aren't the Orange ones, but I use rtv and they hold air so far. I'm going to guess you pinched your O ring.

    2 piece wheels

    Just get some steel wheels from jegs/summit. I have my spare mounted on one. I don't like it as it's not diy friendly, but if you don't feel like beating on them with a duck bill hammer, I don't blame you. Plus I can throw the spare in the back by myself. Try that without blowing out your back...

    HMMWV Half Shafts

    If you go new, they could be had for 500 or so for a complete set. You have 10k units, and the rear pair are the same.

    Tips to short list HMMWVs up for auction on Gov Planet

    Imho it's all a crap shoot with the engines. Gp will not take pics of rebuild tags. Some people get lucky and have a fresh engine with blow by from heavy break in oil, others much worse. You have to go off the pictures instead of the report, especially since gp will state the pictures are a...

    Thank you for confirming that. I had a hunch that what was going on. Thank you additional info on the compatibility.

    Nartron EESS does not like the hot?

    I keep reading the threads of bad pcm's, and thought I would share my issue. I have the yellow label Nartron EESS, and cold starts on hot days (over 105 F) the light will come on for a split second. Starts fine, takes couple extra cranks though. When it's cooler out the wait light comes on...
