H1 is much quieter inside. They have insulation and carpet and some sound deadening to keep it quiet inside. They also have under hood insulation. If you want to make your HMMWV quieter inside (still not H1 quiet) use bed liner on the underside of the body and inside the doghouse. For the...
I think in this state it depends on who you get at the counter and what mood they are in. I licensed my Humvee without issue same as any other ranch pickup on the road in January. I have a friend who has bought, titled and licensed 2 deuce and a half trucks in the last couple months without...
I have done LOTS of alignments and the shop won’t need any info or specs. When they align it they put sensors on each wheel that read back to the main computer and show positive or negative camber and caster. Then they adjust until each wheel reads within a degree or less of where it should be...
Don’t worry they don’t show up on airport scans. I have a rod the full length of my right femur and left collar bone. Been through airports in America and Russia and they never say a word. Makes me hurt to look at that lol.
Great looking bumper. Any idea of a rough estimate of weight? Does it...
Mine clunks a little when you put it in drive or reverse from neutral. It also clunks when you go from forward to reverse or vise versa. If you are going down hill and drop it to first you can hear a little clunk. I have checked all U joints, diffs and anything else I could think of and can’t...
Does it really matter if they are milspec? Government contracts don’t always go to the guy with the best product. 99% of the time they give the contract to the lowest bidder. It’s not the guy with the quality product that get the contract it’s the guy that can get the most parts at the lowest...
Pretty sure hitting the brakes is what caused the problem. Tired and sick of calving in the snow and wasn’t thinking about what I was driving. It’s been going bad for a while I just haven’t had the time or money to fix it. I haven’t torn it completely down yet but looking in the torn boot it...
Are the half shafts for the Hummer H1 the same as a Humvee? I have found some advertised as 10k that fit a 2002 to 2006 Hummer H1. Will they fit on my 1993 HMMWV? I was busting snow extremely wet snow drifts and broke my right front half shaft. Tractors and the Humvee were the only thing getting...
I have heard good things about LizardSkin ceramic for heat reduction. I have also read a much cheaper version is to take latex house paint and mix in ceramic micro spheres. Pretty much the same thing as LizardSkin ceramic. Everyone that I have read about doing it covered both the LizardSkin and...
Headphone are illegal while driving where I live. Not looking to totally block out the world just want to cut back the decibel level at highway speed some. I am sure I could Dynomat the whole thing inside and knock out a lot of noise but I am also looking for something strong and waterproof.
Post some pics and let us know how much it quieted the inside. There are a lot of people out there who have posted about planning to use these products but it’s almost impossible to find any posts on the finished product and if they were satisfied. I have had a couple people PM me that have used...
I have my glow plugs on a push button in my Humvee. I just use regular 12v glow plugs for a 6.2/6.5 and they work fine. HMMWV’s have a different style plug than all the other stuff, humvee is round all others are a flat plug. I would try to stay with the 24v round end humvee plugs just so you...
Hey everyone I am looking to do a roll on sound deadener and I have searched all over the internet but not much for results on finished product. I know someone on here did a Humvee in LizardSkin but I could not find any pictures. Basically I just want to know how well it works and if you think...
You don’t necessarily need the line wrench. They just make it so you don’t round the corners. To figure out size take a regular wrench and check it. I would go with a half inch torque wrench but that’s just my preference. Just check your torque specs to make sure that none of the bolts need over...
http://www.northernautoparts.com/part/gs-260-1315 here is a full gasket set for a 6.2L. You will have a bunch of left over gaskets but never hurts to have them around especially for the price.
As for tools I don’t know any of the sizes without checking but I would recommend a line wrench for...
