    Alternator and gauge

    When I was cleaning the vehicle I found the that cover and saw where to put it, so mine was off and I just pushed it on, wonder why it was off. I wonder if they were having the same issues with the low voltage. Now when I start messing with the Alternator, can someone tell me "about" how...

I want to put a voltmeter on the battery's but I don't know what I should be seeing numbers wise. Also is...

    Interesting enough, I changed out the batteries. Well there was a zipped tied peace of paper on a cable, well there was a fuse. The fuse was blown and in the zip tied bag it were fuses. That said it was too that device. Well I changed the fuse, not that I can do anything about it but odd that it...

    I made this a few months ago. HMMWV shift lock

    How would you do that? Get it rolling in N and then put it in drive? Or physically have it pushed in drive? Would that even work well?

    cool! I know that speaker really isn't designed for music but that would be pretty slick if there were an adapter to play music from my cell phone through it!

    Need a wiper knob....dont know if its worth 10 bucks plus 6.50 shipping on ebay, its a GM knob and I think just about any GM knob would fit. Am I overthinking this or has someone else used something else?

    So my drivers side window wasn't unzipped as I thought in the pictures. It had come undone at the zipper. Well I took it to the same place it took my vr4 to get redone today. Shot the ****, next thing I know they are fixing it right then, 20 bucks later my zipper is sewed back on. Makes me...

    Does anyone have a short video of the humvee belts at idle? Ive read they "dance" the manual says they move and that doesnt mean they are bad. These are not dry rotted and I tensioned them with plenty of tension. I just want to see if mine are correct, or I need to replace them and inspect...
