So update: 1. Made my own brake tool. 2. Had some custom steel braided lines installed to get rid of the crappy hard lines and multiple fitting/failure points

Thanks everyone got her buttoned up tight with nordlocks and red thread locker. Word to the wise...wear a respirator and eye protection. I got covered in brake dust and all I was wearing were some shorts

Thanks for the update on threadless and washers. - I got the caliper off and the old pads out. - I c-clamped the caliper to push the piston in. - I put the new pads in The caliper doesn't want to squeeze around the new pads even with piston all the way in.

Does anyone have any idea on how to disassemble the brakes without taking the caliper off. My goal is to just swap out pads. The rears look easy (there's a lot of room). The fronts are tight in there especially the driver side.

What about with an air dog or fass

I think your over heating and stalling issue are independent. the over heating is your cooling system and your stalling is fuel/air/glow plug issue.

I had cut one rig off of the passenger side, I'll have to cut another on the front driver side but maybe add spacers. Might do rear spacers after I get new wheels and tires. I kind of wish I didn't cut anything off but hind sight 20/20

I'll have to say, the guys here have helped me a lot too. I was a corpsman of marines so I spent some time in the motor pool on these things but medicine was the real game for me. Now I feel like a real 3521

I want a set for sure but won't afford it for another year or so after I finish this doctoral program. In the mean time it's stock shocks for me. I'm trying to fit 42's. Any thought on the tire size?

Sounds like air got in when he replaced lines.

So I cut 1 round off the top of a 4x4 armada rear spring. Hope I did this right. It's going on the front of the m1123. Going to be compressing the armada spring to get it in. Left spring is armada and right is stock front m1123.

How do I tell if my current shocks are bad?

Are our trucks gas or hydraulic?

Sorry if this is a dumb question but Im new to the HMMWV coming from a chevy suburban. Does the M1123 shock rebound or does it just provide resistance both ways? i pulled my shock out and it has resistance going down but doesnt come back up on its own. is it bad? do the new shocks bounce back up?

How much should I cut off the top?

I pulled the transfer case because I lost drive. I pulled it and everything was OK. Checked the differential thinking that was the next culprit. Nope it was all good. The 6 bolts holding cv axles to diff flanges sheared. Got the rear end (diff and portal axles) refilled with new gaskets and got...

The hole at the bottom is where the fluid was coming out of

So that's normal?

There isn't a slip yoke. It's where the transfercase mounts to. You see the hole at the bottom? Is it supposed to be open or is there a plug there?

Anyone have the past number for the rear transmission seal on the 4spd? I was leaking between the transmission and Transfer case. Is the transmission supposed to leak when the cross member is out and the transmission is angled down? I saw these holes and saw that fluid was coming out which...
