Having trouble finding replacement Interstate 6TL batteries for my M998. The ones recommended in other thread's aren't available around me. Just Walmart and auto parts stores. Are there any common, readily available batteries that will work as good or better than the 6TL?
Picking up a HMMWV today. Finally. I read the sticky about maintenance, but still need some guidance on precautions to take after it's been sitting for so long. 7 years based on the mileage reports. I know the batteries are dead and may not be reparable, but the truck slave starts well. There's...
Hey guys. Can the standard troop seats be modified/shortened to work with a 4-man HMMWV? In other words, I would like to keep the 4-doors and 4-seats, but put shorted troop seats on the bed rails only. Here's a picture of them on a 2-man truck. Are they modular to where they can be easily...
Just an update here. I had to restart the process due to Someone at GP losing the original EUC. I found out the updates come out every Tuesday, so check the site for your EUC status then. Their EUC guy Dave is great, very helpful.

Interesting, thanks. Is there anything that would be placed on the vehicle that would identify it as a 2007, rather than a 1987, for registration and identification purposes? Or should I proceed with registering it as a 1987?
Yeah I called Maine and they confirmed it was a complete frame-off restore. Everything. New motor, driveline, everything. I found this site that explains it all pretty well.

Thanks fellas!
Awesome, thanks guys. I got the MWO's, but am trying to find out what was done in the "Overhaul". Engine, driveline, etc. Anyone familiar with the standard procedures and what constitutes putting an Overhaul plate on a M998?
Hello, I am trying to figure out exactly what was included in the "overhaul" on my M998. Here's a picture of the plate, indicating that the vehicle was overhauled at M.M.A. on 8/07. What would have been done in the overhaul, and what/where is "MMA"?
Thanks!
