Hummer H1 ran with my idea and got the manual computer bypass device on EBay. He loves it. Gets rid of computer BUT you need to manually shift. You become the computer and torque converter lock out controller. PM him or maybe he will answer this post. I’ll text him and ask him to reply.

HMMWVs notoriously resemble curling stones on ice unless you’re very careful and know how to pump your brakes. Siping tires is a waste of time. Chains work well. Younger drivers need to read up on pumping the brakes in a slide.

Really super nice!

Sand or etch the surface so paint adheres.

Perfect time to look for leaks. Rear engine, input tranny, rear tranny, xfer case.

Guys, Tom Cepek sells amazing 17” rims. I own a set of 5 that came with my H1. Check his website. Easy to paint or powder coat. Proper offset. Each rim supports more than 3K lbs. I still prefer steel split rims with Feltz tires BUT Cepek rims are outstanding quality and Tom Cepek is a truly...

Bittersweet Juan… This will allow me to sell my much loved M1025 with 4 speed 765R4 conversion. I love her BUT I need turbo for long mountain drives at elevation.

Feltz tires. They are on vacation until 01-14-2024

Guess who will be joining me next in my family? Just won this today on GovPlanet. Won’t start but otherwise complete aside from missing windshields and missing doors. Made her quite “affordable”.

Received and measured a takeout HMMWV dashboard. Dashboard base unit is a simple rectangular footprint with one angled edge, and passenger and driver side tabs held in place with rivets. The angled and shaped bits interfere with gauge placement. Rather than use body filler and such to fill it in...

My REV A 12K axle boots are leaking. Anyone have preferences for boot distributors sources and grease manufacturers?

I went 765R4 in my M1025. Works awesome. I prefer my M1165 with 4L80E, BUT there is that tranny electrical stuff. It has a turbo so it has more power. It also has a tranny electrical issue that a 700R4 is immune to.

Those star washers are 1 use only IIRC
