The extension comes in real handy when it comes to hooking up a trailer. I have the class three hitch hooked up to the original location on the airlift bumper and have a 10" drop Alumistinger hitch. With this combo I can hook up to just about any trailer with ease. . Mark

Take baby steps. Check each plug (still in the engine) with a meter to see if they are still viable. If the plugs are good it is more than likely the box is having issues and is very common. Many of us keep a good spare box around just for these issues. I put in a new set of plugs (PITA) only...

Those knockoff switches have a miserable track record. Replace that first. Mark

R.I.P. Dave.

And you think the later models are "fast" ? I would love to have a turbo along with a least a four speed but oh well. The GM v8 diesels are a poor engine to begin with as time has told. The Cummins 6 cylinder offerings is a far superior engine but a rather costly conversion for the HMMWV. I...

And just why should one "stay away" from the M998s??? Mark

Mine,

Massachusetts isn't bad but I highly recommend you use the Taunton MA. DMV as they are knowledgeable about registering former military vehicles. Last thing you want is someone who can't think outside of the box. Mark

That does sound off. My increase in ins for my stand alone policy for the Humvee was less than 50 bucks in the Peoples republic of Massachusetts. My oldest boy lives in Fort Worth and I can't believe what he pays there. Mark

Mine has been on my trailer for seven years and counting. One mod I do to keep it from sagging between the hoops is to use 1/2" shock cord tied from one hoop to the other. I have three rows like that and it keeps the tarp tight. Mark

I know exactly what you are talking about. The duct fabric is a hell of a lot more durable than the thinner vinyl product. From the looks of the pics of the cover for sale in question to me it shore looks like the duct fabric. Real hard to come by in green color these days. Mark

If the starter is not shimmed properly the bendix gear could get jammed on the flywheel teeth and that could cause the issue. Was it trying to engage when you first hooked up the batteries or the first time you turned the lever to start? Mark

Do you have a key switch? They tend to have issues. Mark

I'm just not in that much of a hurry. My MAX speed on the highway is between 60 and 62mph with my three speed. Any faster and it sounds like all hell is breaking loose . Mark

Yep, The M116 would also be a good choice. The old Ben Hur trailers IMHO are the best looking of all of them but very hard to find anymore. Mark

The M416 is a good trailer for the jeep as it's relatively light and narrow. You could go with the M101A2 if you need more cargo space than the M416 can offer but it comes at a heavy cost. Mark

As long as you got it registered I would start jumping up and down. Always a lot of stress getting these things registered and insured. Mine is a Hum. Lol Mark

On all electrical connections I use Permatex copper never seize. Obviously It's a great never seize but also helps prevent Galvanic corrosion (dissimilar-metal corrosion). This product is also a good electrical conductor and can handle high temps so it's a win win all the way around. Just...

Mine is a 91 M998 and I have those reinforcements. Didn't know it was anything special. Mark

Yes please offer for sale custom stencils. Ones I had to look for. TP50, No step, DIESEL ONLY and so on. Mark
