    "but it drove off the lot under its own power"... they give used car salesman a bad name. And well. rolling stock contractors. I can see why GL just stated. "no key, no start". let it go for what it is.... Buy the correct GP's. I was able to get some from a friend at a motor pool. Literally...

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    You will have to bleed them all. Some times you can get away with not doing them all, other times it's a fight. When you have white smoke coming out of the exhaust then you know you are partially burning the diesel. Usually a good glow plug session, and the engine is off to the races. You can do...

    New M998 Project looking for input.

    looks like the 4bt can work with the stock rad stack. I think the shop hosed you. "The Front driveshaft carrier bearing needs to be repositioned slightly towards the left front tire. A local driveline shop can do that for $200. The reason for this is for the front driveshaft to clear the oil pan"

    Wiring 7 LED lights to hmmwv

    As they're LEDs you will want to wire them in series and parallel while using a resistor. I would run a relay. Save your switch the load. will also allow you to run a cheaper or lower amp switch. "think push buttons" this is good as you will also not be maxing out the amps of the switch...

    fuel filter change

    Depends how bad the leak. If it's a drop every now and then. Well it personally wouldn't bother me. It's diesel not gasoline. However, that's a really bad way to look at it. You can try the method lionel. Just tighten the ip casing bolts. Sometimes works, other times it does not. You can also...

    Ibis tek light bar vs led light bar.

    HID vs LED. HID are going to be more direct plug, and play. and cheaper. Fleabay has the Ibis for 200$? Safety crew at the local dirt circle track uses Rigid Industries LED's. Even had them set up to flash blue/red. Higher quality. $$$ I mounted some Hella's with H4/ballast where the motor...
