I can't seem to find much in the archives to help me on these two question. I am going to be running some high amperage cables from the starter to the front bumper for a Sherpa electric winch installation. First question, the winch connections are currently covered by a layer of that...

This isn't a hypothetical. So let's say you were going to buy a parts truck and cannibalize it for hard-to-get spares. Currently I am thinking that I may do just that. And let's say your driving truck is a late model ECV/REV B. Assuming you didn't have space to store the truck more than...

It's on an auction truck at GP. Never seen this before - what is this for? https://www.govplanet.com/for-sale/Humvees-2008-AM-General-M1152A1-HMMWV-2-Door-Hard-Top-w%2FTruck-Body-Georgia/8523954?h=5000%2Cc%7C3468%2Cmd%7CM1152A1%2Cyr%7C2008%2Csm%7C0%2Cms%7CG%2Cmf%7C1&rr=0.5&hitprm=&pnLink=yes

Here's one for sale. Not mine. Or you can buy it direct from Rico/Rhino too. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/950024873

Took me 9 months to get my most recent one. Will the fee change pay for faster service?

McSpeed’s thread on getting stuck has me considering adding a rear winch to my M1165A1. I do go in the backcountry a lot and getting stuck is a real concern. I will shortly have a 17K front mount winch permanently installed. I am just toying with options, but I am wondering what people who...

It's combat footage, so you are warned if you click through . . . several armored HMMWVs in combat in Ukraine. Also lots of American weaponry around the HMMWV. https://www.itemfix.com/v?t=j2iki4

From their new spin-off show, "Pawn Stars Do America". Advance to about 36:43 for the scene. The Pawn Stars passed. I would have also - the 6.5 non-turbo doesn't have the juice to run up and down I-70 in Colorado. https://play.history.com/shows/pawn-stars-do-america/season-1/episode-1

I'm going off on a lark and adding a winch to my M1165A1. I've secured an ECV front winch plate and am planning on adding a Sherpa 17K winch. What I'm worried about now is the added weight in the front of the vehicle and weight. About 70 pounds for the winch and close to that for the mounting...

For those running on Montana plates - has anyone applied for the exemption from front license plate? I am thinking of putting the winch on the front of my M1165A1 and it will be difficult to mount a plate if I do. HQ-1704-FRONT-PLATE-WAIVER-2.pdf (dojmt.gov) Appreciate if anyone has done this...

From a quick stop I made at the Heartland Military Museum in Lexington, NE. About the only good part of driving cross country I-80.

My neighbor and I will be driving our sister trucks - both M1165A1s - out to Moab for a bit of off roading. It's about a 300 mile trip (each way) for us. We'll definitely be bringing tools and a few key spares but I wanted to be prepared for one of the trucks going down. Which makes me...

Just curious - anyone know when the last HMMWVs were produced for the US military, and what are the highest serial numbers seen? GP has had a few in the low 350xxx range they say are 2012 manufacture; are there any newer than that?

This guy is in pretty rough shape, even for a GP truck. It's obviously a non-runner, but I only want it for parts so I don't care. But I'm wondering what these mysterious markings on the hood could mean?

Oh wait, maybe that's me. Because it's -13 F this morning. But the HMMWV is just fine on the backroads here in the High Country. A little winter formula diesel and some Howe's additive, and no start or operational issues. Other than I wish the heat was working.

Well here's one: https://www.govdeals.com/index.cfm?fa=Main.Item&itemid=378&acctid=4351

For auction, opening bid $1,800: 2009 AM General M1123 HMMWV 2 Door w/Truck Body

Yes. Yes it can.

I'm now operating the HMMWV in an extremely cold mountain environment (it's 12 degrees this morning and the roads are between 7,000 and 11,000 feet here) and it's also sitting for as much as a month at a time. Wondering if anyone uses any additives to deal with these kind of factors, like...
