    Questions on the M998 Hmmwv Humvee

    Well I have a HMMWV question or two and I feel like another thread is unnecessary. Really not trying to take over this thread but perhaps it could be used further. If I'm out of line, please delete. Today I noticed a leak from a rear geared hub. Looking closer the front bottom bolt in this...

    Questions on the M998 Hmmwv Humvee

    Thanks Mogman, just ordered a set. Recently sent back a pos set from feebay claiming to be a HMMWV wiper upgrade. Pure junk, was an arm with the end pop riveted on, painted black, and the blade was too big. It wiped 1.5 inches below the glass.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Thats great to know. Will try that stuff if this doesn't work out. There may be a curing time, I didn't read too far in the directions😂 But today is a little cooler and it's staying stuck so far.

    Questions on the M998 Hmmwv Humvee

    I have a friend out of North Carolina that makes exact replicas of the special forces half doors. He sells them on feebay but if you call him directly you will get a better price. And I doubt you will find a better deal or better quality. I have 2 rear halfdoors from him and they are of...

    Heres a link to the product I used. Used almost the whole can for the curtain and roof of a two man. The mat seemed to soak it in. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07DNK8NBP?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title Update, now that the roof has been cooked in the sun all day, the mat is coming off of...

    You're not to far from me. I could help with the welding possibly on a weekend. Got a mobile weld truck and need to get up to my house in Buffalo Creek soon anyway. Think I even have the nickel rod up there.

    You Marines out there will remember these iso sleeping mats. I used a few of them, some mirror trim and spray adhesive to insulate the hardtop. And added another rigid molle panel.

    Made a bracket and rerouted a cooling line to add this 24v alternator to the Duramax. Hope to purchase batteries soon and rig up a 24v system so my AC will work along with heater blower motor and a couple other things.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    After ordering some rigid molle panels and being disappointed in the high price of plastic sheets with holes, I decided to see if I could make a small one to fit on top of my ac unit. Using one of those expensive panels as a jig and a 6 dollar piece of hdpe I managed to make one with only a few...

    Really nice work. Would like to see more of how you accomplished that repair. Not that I plan to damage my truck but just in case.

    Using lock washers

    Come to think of it, I don't really like lock washers and don't believe they work very well. I just gained a whole column in my short of space bolt bin. Thanks for the idea!

    First load.

    Good lookin trailer. I have one but much rougher shape. Use it for scrap metal. With the light load you have there you might explore using the " dump" feature thats not really supposed to be used for dumping. I think its just for compact storage but if you set the brakes and pull the 2 pins in...
