These are 40.0x17/16.5 old school Ground Hawgs. I like the look and the increased highway speeds, but a lift would be required to do any more than mud puddles off road. Goofing around with offsets and track can also mess up bearings and make a truck drive funny. Exacerbates alignment issues...

Glad we got that cleared up ! I apologize to all concerned for my perceived troll like actions. I meant no harm. I was and am still trying to remain a tad anonymous in light of the fact that we collect military vehicles in a time when there are those that would change our ability to do so if...

Thank you

Sorry if I am not a great photographer. It is reasonable to want to get the truck and paperwork prior to posting about it.

Oh ok great. I have those.

Well said ! Howdy back ! So off-roading use only then ? The kid next door agrees. Wants to test the fording capability in the swamp. OK sorry. No more annoying close ups.

Yes I believe so. The doors looked like this: my hinges are slightly different. The backing plate is riveted to the body and the hinge is made to clear the rivets. Production trucks had no rivets so the hinge plate was flat.

Funny that you called it a depot hack job in the fuel sender hatch thread and now you are saying it is rare ! The truck is amazingly original now. Paint, tires, engine, hand made radiator, suspension, frame rails, all different than the production trucks than started production in late 1984 with...

That truck is TE000K. This truck is TE0001. TE stands for Testing and Evaluation. I guess the General Dynamics trucks were alphabetical and the AM General trucks were numerical. The truck I have might be this one:

Sure ! Thanks for sharing my enthusiasm !

I think this and that but know very little. I think..... This truck never had a plate in the normal location. I think it is a 1983 and the first truck made for Testing and Evaluation. Phase I was the developmental mule phase from 6 companies. Phase II were the prototypes from 3 companies...

I was referencing the serial number on the hood. Sort of hard to read ! it says: U S ARMY T E 0 0 0 1

Most have hinges. I agree. Mine does not. Has the multi leaves but it is a fixed bracket. No pin or place for a pin. Probably because it is so old. For some reason I can't post a picture.

I have not memorized it yet.

1983 Govplanet Hummervee prototype TE0001 Just took delivery of my 1983 Govplanet Hummer prototype and I am very pleased with both the truck and the buying experience. The truck has only 3000 miles on it and still has the original tires, seat cushions (look to be out of an M151), Paint with...

That may be. I am basing my experience on a British sports car that had the brakes lock up last weekend during a race (of all times). Heck of a time to tell ya but I don't know squat about Humvee brakes. Just British sports cars. Still, bleeding your brakes might help or solve your problem.

Well maybe that's your problem. You put in thicker pads but still have the same amount of fluid In the lines and a simple brake bleed is all that is required.
