    Any info on states issuing titles for hmmwvs?

    I've heard from several people who talked to DMV prior to purchase and were told no problem. When they came back they were told just no. So talking to DMV prior is no guarantee you'll get the same answer when you come back...

    I overshot neutral into Reverse

    Be aware, if your shifter is working correctly it won't allow this. You can shift from lower forward hears to higher forward gears, but it won't let you go past N until you mash the button.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Now that I have a functional door handle, I took the doors off and drove it to sonic. The rusted brushguard, headlight bezels, and other assorted tan nastiness is bothering me. So I took the brushguard and headlight bezels off and got after them with a powered wire brush. Then I painted them...

    Possible solution for dreaded engine stall when brakes are locked up.

    Not all of them got it. There's a scant few that didnt. I've seen several go through auction without it.

    That headlight pulsing and volt meter swing is electrical load caused by afterglow on the glowplugs, as an aid to keeping it running until it gets warm. Feature, not bug. :)

    Modest reliable upgrades for NHC-250?

    Dare i say it? TRASH TRUCK :) Back on topic - dual fuel and call it done. Anything else has excessive risk.

    That's an M925A0. Trivial difference. Looks decent. Drop the driveshaft on the M1009. Got lights?

    Does it have reset tags on it? Looks like a nice truck. I'm biased, but I like the 2man pickup variant.

    6CTA8.3 engine rebuild for Sur Móvil

    One option is a full refund. Although I'd find it instructive to compare them side by side with what's currently in the truck. 98G

    Way Ahead for Kansans to on road title MV stamped Off Road Use

    It would be nice if they'd include former MVs under the antique vehicle rules, without regard to date of manufacture. That'd be a quick easy fix, and former MVs of any vintage have similar use profiles to antiques... I read through the current legislation. I find it amusing that a half track...

    LT295/75R 16" tire's on 16" X 8" rims

    At full inflation pressure you should have seen increased wear in the center of the tread compared to the edges. Not a big deal.... OP certainly wouldn't see any significant issues without altering the OEM rims. Having them rehooped is an empty expenditure. I have maybe half a million miles...

    Way Ahead for Kansans to on road title MV stamped Off Road Use

    What about all the HMMWVs GP sold with nonbranded titles? What about people who move to KS with a HMMWV street titled from one of the more friendly states who want to re-register in KS? My point, which is moot at this point, is that attracting legislator attention is as likely to get "no...

    Way Ahead for Kansans to on road title MV stamped Off Road Use

    The thing about attracting the notice of legislators is that they're as likely to make things worse as they are to make things better. Let's hope they look at KY, TN, ID, and MT when they're crafting their proposed bill, and not at VA, LA, FL, OK or MI. I'm wondering just what KS law the...

    Where oh where might the TM be? (Applied Companies GETT Generator and ECU)

    So, looking at this 5pin plug... The bottom smaller pin is ground. The one at 1100 is neutral, and the other three are 120v each voltage potential from neutral. If I take a 3 wire cable and grab B C and Neutral, and wire a 50amp 240v female on one end, and a 5pin male on the other but...

    Unless I misunderstand something, the output should be 2/3 of the rated output.

    Where oh where might the TM be? (Applied Companies GETT Generator and ECU)

    There's a lot of really knowledgeable people here. Please correct any misconceptions that I may have... it seems to me that I can take some 8/5 cable and a 5pin male plug and I can wire my 3phase air compressor to plug into that 5pin port, from where it will happily slurp 208v 3phase power...
