    Humvee 4L80e ATF 3 or 6, can ATF 6 cause leaks?

    From the information I gathered, both of these fluids can be used in the 4l80e but GM recommends the ATF 6, I heard that the ATF 6 is a thinner fluid which can give it a better chance of leaking, which is why I'm asking this question. This is at least my 4th time having a leak with the ATF 6...

    Humvee Engine Knocking (yes it's actual knocking, probably)

    Its really hard to diagnose exactly what that noise can be on video. I'll start at checking the belt first, rub some dielectric grease on it and see if the noise would go away, if it doesn't, then that eliminate it from being the belt. The next thing I'll check is the pulleys, injectors, and...

    200 Amp Generator to charge power bank

    I decided to go with the deep cycle batteries, which ones do I need to wire up to charge the batteries at 12v? I have the dual voltage generator, I'm still undecided on whether I'm going to wire my batteries in 12v or 24v

    Humvee USMC Markings

    Does anyone have any tips on putting these back on or is there some special sticker I can use for masking off the areas where I can easily paint it back? I know its crazy, but I like the original look with the all the numbers & such, mines is faded very badly

    36 inches or 37

    Speaking of tires, have anyone tried these? https://ntwonline.com/38x12-50x16-5e-tsl-sx-interco-super-swamper/ Not the price I was thinking of paying but 38s would be nice, especially since those are the same width. Something in the road actually punctured my tire today and its on a flat

    4L80E - No Power?

    One thing to check is the internal wiring harness as well. Mines done the same thing and it was because of the internal wiring harness being jacked up

    200 Amp Generator to charge power bank

    Im either going for a 200ah or 300ah lithium battery. I currently already have 3 600w solar panels. The plan is to use it for a backup generator and power supplies around the shop. I may end up going with another 600w panel if I have the space to fit it nicely

    200 Amp Generator to charge power bank

    Does anyone know if the humvee generator is able to charge another battery besides the starting battery? I'm about to put together my solar battery bank on the humvee and was wondering would it be possible to also wire the battery to the generator and have it charged that way. I do not want to...

    80MPH odometer ?

    Like postman said with the correct wiring, but I think its extra unnecessary work, I use a garmin GPS in mines for the speed and that's very accurate. I have the speedo with the cable but it doesn't work
