    I will say that I thought the same. What I did is I searched the towns around me and noticed that many that had those listed hadn't even logged in for years. Something else to look at when you're looking at those members around you... When was the date of their last activity. If it was 2008 then...

    Loud Noise

    They claimed to have replaced a line going to the back. I honestly don’t know that they did though. I would think if they did I would see new lines which I see none. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Loud Noise

    So I bled the power steering and once the bubbles stopped coming out, when I would turn the wheels to the drivers side I could actually see the bottom of the pump. I topped it off and it seems to be doing good now. As far as the brakes go, I removed all fluid I could from the reservoir and...

    Loud Noise

    I know it is my break fluid reservoir... I just checked that first because I knew they had just replaced my break lines. Sorry... Point of posting that pict was the fact that half the reservoir looks contaminated or something so was thinking I would need to at minimum drain breaks as well...

    Loud Noise

    Well I do not even need to bleed the lines to see there is something going on. Pulled the cover off to check the fluid and saw this... What is the best way to completely drain the system so that I can start fresh?

    Does anybody make army truck tree ornaments?

    Loud Noise

    As far as why the pump was replaced, I am assuming you are referring to the fuel injector pump. They told me once they got the water pump on and everything put back together, when they cranked it, there was nothing and they found that the fuel injector pump was seized up which in turn caused the...

    Loud Noise

    As far as returning it to the place I had the work done, I really do not trust them at all. I took it in to get the water pump put back in and are out over 3K into it. I kept questioning charges and they would take them off and add new charges so that the bill remained the same or went up till I...

    Loud Noise

    I took it in to get the water pump put back in as I had to come back to Africa. I already had the cooling stack and fan removed when I had it towed into them. They ended up also replacing the fuel injector pump and doing some other work. When we got it home it was leaking hydraulic fluid and my...

    Loud Noise

    So I recently paid an ungodly amount to get this thing all fixed up and ready to go so that when I return I can actually drive it, but now that the maintenance has been done, it is making a loud noise that it was not making before. Wanted to see if anybody might have any idea as to what it might...

    Water Pump Question

    Yea... I'm thinking that this place is trying to get one over on me because he knows I'm deployed and it is my wife that will have to come get the vehicle. Will be having many more conversations over the phone with them and getting detailed reports before she does pick it up though...

    Water Pump Question

    Any idea about how long it should take to put a water pump back in? Shop is charging me for 16 hours. I already had everything removed and all the parts. They put it together then found out that the cam would not turn (it ran when I removed the water pump) so they took it apart to find that a...

    Humvee audio systems: What have you added / done to your rig ?

    So my 20yo son drove it home for me and said the sound is great. I’ll be honest, I have not heard it yet as my wife purchased this for me and I’m still on deployment. Currently my HMMWV is in the shop, but once it is ready to be picked up I can have my wife or son take some more pictures and...

    Air Filter Question

    Ok so I’m on my way back to Africa and will be getting my HMMWV towed to a shop once I get the parts in for it. My question is since they’re going to take apart the transfer case anyway I’m going to go ahead and order a new cooling ring, but are there other parts needed to fix the vampire...
