    HMMWV listed on Copart.

    A little plywood and bondo and it will be good as new.

    Cheap rock sliders on amazon

    Just the fact they are made in China is reason enough for me to pass them by. I would pay 4 times that amount for made in USA before I would support a communist country using our money to build up their military to use against us but I digress. I don't off road mine to the point of needing...

    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    In another thread I mentioned an option to add a keyed ignition and steering column lock. I don't like the key/lock replacement for the stock ignition switch and have been wanting something different. I decided to buy the one I suggested to see if I could make it work. One of the requirements...

    My new 1992 M998 Avenger

    Tailgate update: After taking the tailgate apart I was able to mostly untwist it. I would have needed a press to get the last of it out. I think it will be fine. I reassembled it and it's ready for paint. I was also able to straighten the hinge out with a large fine tuning tool. Now I am...

    STE/ICE Delete

    I'll tell you my thoughts because I thought the same thing as you. I thought I would like to get a mating connector to be able to use some of the signals from it. For example, there is a tach sensor on the motor and the only place it goes it to the STE/ICE connector. You could tap the...

    Sources/options and types of 12V wiper and heater fan motors…

    Make it out of plywood rofl Or you can take it all apart, measure it and find a 12v motor of a similar size and make it fit. That's what I would do.

    Guess what it sold for at auction!

    It's about $54,100 more than I would have paid.

    Guess what it sold for at auction!

    On a side note, I was going to answer your question on Queen earlier and forgot to. I've heard this question brought up before and I grew up listening to Queen. When I was probably 12 or 13 and just getting into Rock music, I had an 8 track tape player in my room and Queen was the 1st tape I...

    Power steering pump leak - reseal or new pump?

    After a little digging I could not find a rebuild kit for that unit. I did find remanufactured pumps but not the kit. I'm sure it is nothing special, bearing seals etc but you would probably have to source them individually unless someone else knows of a kit part number. I did find the pump...

    HMMWV (not H1) Helical Hubs oil level

    I don't have the the Fording kit myself but I have read others talk about overfilling something and it getting fluid in the Fording Line. I think it was ATF from the power steering? But I suppose if that is a possibility there may be other possibilities that could allow other oils in the...

    HMMWV (not H1) Helical Hubs oil level

    That was going to be my next question since it's hard to overfill them on the truck unless you really try.

    HMMWV (not H1) Helical Hubs oil level

    Not an expert here and have only had to change my hub oil once and only because it was new to me and I didn't know the condition or maintenance on it. My thoughts, did you remove the filler plug first? If you did, is that when the excess oil came out? On the other ones I would pull the filler...

    Duramax 6.6 and Allison Transmission Swap

    If you've never done something like this before, this isn't an easy one to start with. There is nothing that "bolts in" and nothing is "plug and play". When I initially bought my HMMWV I bought a 2002 Chevy 3500 with a 88,000 mile Duramax the same day with the intentions of doing a swap...
