    Let's talk about HMMWV paint

    Mine was painted with Behr paint three years ago and it is holding up very well. My M101A2 Behr painted trailer is five years old and it is in great shape, I was leary of using house paint but sure swear by it now. My buddy painted his Pinzgauer in this color first and I liked it so much I went...

    700R4 transmission in a HMMWV

    Looks great. That is the exact same place I plan to install mine. Did you have to gave the gauge overhang the mounting surface? I wondered because of the depth of the gauge and the metal supports behind the dash. Thanks, Mark

    HMMWV Hot Rodding Forum?

    What about one for MV owners that have been abducted by Aliens while driving. Maybe sub categories for probed and non probed victims. Just a thought. Mark

    who out here has a Pinzgauer

    My buddy has one on the north shore and we use my M101A2 trailer now and then. Pinzgauers are great rides. Mark

    Added some 3.5" flood lights for the front and also in the rear as backup lights

    Just do a search on a popular auction site for 2X 3.5inch 18W Round LED Work Light Flood. They are 10-30 volts and are under 16 bucks shipped. Mark

    Added some 3.5" flood lights for the front and also in the rear as backup lights

    Installed these little 3.5" Leds (1320 Lumens) to the three holes in the bumper and two as backup lights. Will be wiring them up tomorrow. Just going to use toggle switches on these lights as they are only 18W each. Mark

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Installed two newer batteries in the Hmmwv. The old Hawker batteries finally gave up. They had a 2004 date code so LOL. Installed a Solorizer and a bridge plate. I guessed the combined weight of the M998 with my M101A2 would come out at 12K. Anyone have another opinion? Have to have it right...

    Have a new car trailer that my HMMWV will pull from time to time

    The 6.5 with the 3 speed but it honestly will be once in a blue moon to haul the trailer. It's mostly a garage to protect the car and motorcycle. It's a 24'L 8'W 7'T trailer with a 5' V nose so I can drive the bike up into the front. Mark

    Have a new car trailer that my HMMWV will pull from time to time

    Thought I would post some pics of my new toy hauler. Had it custom setup to carry an old car of mine and my motorcycle as well as a small workshop. With the car in the trailer she will weigh in at 8K and I have an electric brake setup and my HMMWV has the airlift bumper so all is well. The...

    24v to 12v

    You could go with a 24 to 12 converter or if it is just lights you are looking for you could go with LEDs that will run from 10 to 30 volts. I am installing some backup lights on my HMMWV and I have a pic of the lights below. Mark Model:18W Voltage:DC 10V-30VWaterproof:IP67 Color...

    Gear oil coming out vent lines

    You sure it is not gear oil mixed with ATF? I had this happen and it turned out to be the dreaded Vampire leak. The cooler in the transfer case develops a leak so the tranny pumps ATF into the transfer case and then out the breather lines to the pumpkins and Portal hubs and onto the air cleaner...
