    LA Humvee Insurance

    I have "hostoric" insurance on it. Like an old Vette or Chevy. Limits me to parades, camping and car shows, but it's about 90.00 every six months. Includes roadside assistance, towing and comprehensive.

    How do you secure your vehicle at shows? Armor hatches - Safety related

    I understand all of the concerns regarding the hatches etc on the V 100s and Ferrets. That said, when I bring my 5 ton to a show, I encourage the kids to get in it and check it out. Mind you, I don't just let them climb about willy nilly, but here's my thing: When kids go to car shows, what...

    The winch is definitely 12v. Probably going to pull the bracket off until I decide to either install a 24v one or a hydraulic one.

    Operation: Ethel. Kendelrios M37 (re)build thread

    Yes it was. The seller kept that. Right now Ethel is on hold until I finish the M715 as the M715 was closer to "done", and I'm going to have to completely go through Ethels engine, brakes etc before I start reassembly.

    24v battery charging through NATO port

    I bought one of those from you and it has been an absolute lifesaver between the batteries for the M715, the M923 and the M37! Awesome job bud!

    Operation: Gertrude. Kendelrios M715 restoration thread

    Today was kind of a freestyle day. I didn't have anything major planned, so I went in with the attitude of "Lemme see what I can do". I got to looking at the various lines that were disconnected and after a question here and on FB, found out I'm running an aftermarket fuel pump. I got the...

    LA Humvee Insurance

    I used State Farm for my M923A2. It's insured as a classic vehicle (like an old corvette etc). I can't use it for a daily driver, but the premium is low AF and is comprehensive coverage.

    Question about the engine ventilation system (solved)

    Question: I'm connecting all of the various vacuum/pressure lines and I am at a loss for this one. It goes back under the cab to a T and braches off to the transfer case and the little tube on the back of the filler tube. There is a piece of soft tubing close to it, which I know was put...

    An update: Had to replace the soft lines on the brakes as they were completely jammed full of junk, replaced several hard lines and fittings, started bleeding.... and the stinking brand new hydraulic brake light switch started leaking. Got a new one installed today, finished bleeding, then...
