    HMMWV accessories/mods?

    Tomcat can you give is some detail and closer pics of your radio tray setup? I like the looks of that.

    Ha! Who says HMMWV's don't have creature comforts

    I found a cupholder from an old jeep tuffy console and threaded it into the rack mount. Works like a charm!

    Fuel Treatment

    I know this topic has been beaten to death in different sub forums but I am asking this specific to the hmmwv. I have had a few different diesel engines over the years and some needed more lubrication in the fuel system than others. I know the multi fuel guys just dump some ATF, 2stroke oil...

    HMMWV so quiet can have a normal conversation on the highway without yelling

    I can't speak for a diesel but in my experience wrapping the headers in quite a few different hotrods over the years it always helped the engine run cooler. It cooled the engine compartment significantly and help get the hot gas out the back where it belongs.

    Anyone tried an overhead console in a HMMWV?

    I couldn't get you to post a picture of that could I? That may fit the bill after all.

    Anyone tried an overhead console in a HMMWV?

    I was trying to keep the area where the radio shack is clear for a couple of lockable ammo boxes.

    Anyone tried an overhead console in a HMMWV?

    Has anyone tried to use a console like the one from thosemilitaryguys? Like this one. It would be really handy to put a CB in and a few switches. I have never seen one in person so I have no idea if it could be modded to work on a HMMWV.

    No forward or reverse movement at running temps

    I would definitely drop the pan and see how much metal you in it. Most likely you have a piece of gunk or trash that broke loose and is lodged in the valve body. Letting a transmission sit is almost as bad as running it to hard. At the least take it to a shop and get it looked at. It will...

    Help me ID this motor.

    I am looking at a local unit here and I can't figure out what motor it's got. It appears to have a TH400 Trans. Here are the pics from today. It's a 1991. It has this label on the lower right hand side of the wheel. Absolutely nothing legible on it. There is nothing above the data plate on...

    hacking the fenders to make 39 inch Swampers fit

    It looks like those have been trimmed up to.

    hacking the fenders to make 39 inch Swampers fit

    I put the hum V tires on mine and had to do a 4 inch lift. I also had to cut the fenders. It was really easy to do. It tool a couple of hours with a cut off wheel and a body hammer and dolly.

    M1009 rear window slips still.

    Subscribed. I have the same problem.

    I was told I have a 6.5. How do I know?

    I bought a m1009 several weeks ago and I have started to recondition and upgrade. One of the local MV guys was looking it over and said that the engine was a 6.5 not a 6.2. I don't doubt him but I want to make sure. It's pretty obvious that it's not the original engine. The engine was much...

    Anyone Running Smittybilts?

    I have plans to add a set when I get the interior finished. What part number did you get to fit the blazer seats? They are a great cover and work well. A little on the spendy side but worth it. The lack of storage in these things makes these covers worth the money.

    M1009 Build Thread

    There will be many more as soon as the ups guy starts dropping off boxes. Waiting on the POR 15 and the bed liner before I can do much more.

    M1009 Build Thread

    I got a little work done this morning. The floorpan has some rust in it (swiss cheese like) and I wanted to see how bad it was. They put some sort of rubber coating on top of it and it hid some of the rust. I am going to have to put some new metal down in places and going to put POR 15...

    M1009 Build Thread

    There is some rust but its not TO bad. The motor has been swapped from a non turbo 6.2 to a non turbo 6.5 or so I was told. I have no way of knowing. The trans would not shift into drive but that was fixed with a little line replacement. It was dry rotted at the trans and at the intake...

    M1009 Build Thread

    I went out and found a 1984 M1009 local here in Mississippi. The tires were in pretty rough shape so I felt like it would be a good idea to drag it home on a trailer. Here are some pictures of the trip home. Also one of it just off the trailer.
