    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    Battery Hold Down Rods

    It's a simple "J" bolt. $5 - $6 bucks each. Now the bracket pricing can be a bit pricey for what they are. Shop around $25 to $40 bucks for NOS. Prices just keep going up Up UP, And that's for the simple stuff. I think mine is worth more in parts, LOL. HumV... spelled backwards is DIY, CAMO

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Tent is a CVT Rainier. https://cascadiatents.com/ Not a sales endorsement or affiliation. Those M- series trailers are being built into DIY overland rigs... which might be why the crazy high prices. I bought three years ago NEW out of Barstow $470 +/- each. See utube for all the builds...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    From corner plate to finish phase one. The "Tactical Tent Trailer - T3" Now working on the beer and BBQ, B2. Not exactly HumV, but the colors match and the hookie hoop hooks right up to HumV, CAMO

    Charging voltage question

    Generator or alternator and a volt short. Is this a HumV or what? 70 Amp unit ? Make sure you have or need the shim? Ears are not to be pinched. lol Middle green and a little more. That's if you can believe the gauge. 28. 8 Volts on the high side and tenths of volts is critical. After...
