    Did you bleed the system of air after bypass by lifting the front 15 degrees and turning wheel lock to wheel lock 20 times with the engine running?

    M1165a1 power steering and overheating

    I seem to recall another member years ago had an issue where the power steering cooling radiator was plugged, or some such sort issue. Have you made sure that you have free flowing fluid through the cooler and that your stack is clean?

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    That ticking sound means time to lubricate or change. Or alternatively it could mean you made some enemies and you should call the bomb disposal unit. 😉😆🤣

    Repair or replace rear curtain?

    Attached at the top to keep rain out and zippered at the sides and bottom with cloth bits, then overlie the zipper to keep rain out. Add ties to allow rolling up and securing. Alternatively, add snaps.

    Odyssey PC2250ST 6tl the bad? best seller?

    Just as a tangential note. I have a Noco Genius 5-3 charger. My batteries on my civilian Hummer were hooked up improperly by poor mechanic and weren’t properly charging. They registered as damaged. I charged with NOCO and then used the repair mode. They now test and load test as normal. I...

    Repair or replace rear curtain?

    You can always consider sewing in with a large zipper to allow opening up on hot days

    Any issues with running old surplus 37’s

    I seem to recall we had plans BUT you decided to go get your Civilian Garage Queen Hummer with square flat tires. How's that CEL??? rofl

    Engine speed for 200 AMP generator?

    My only response would be that a small generator is a great idea, but I would consider a small diesel generator rather than a small Honda generator so you only need to carry one type of fuel

    Repair or replace rear curtain?

    Before you do anything you should consider some of the compounds that can be used to polish the plastic. Boat shops that make canvas boat tops should be able to point you in the right direction. If that doesn't work I would go to a boat shop to have them replace the plastic or the entire unit

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Not quite a HMMWV BUT 1995 Hummer is the 12V version. Same power train. My 1995 has a Whipple and water injection. Swapped out the PO’s POS 38”x14”wide tires with 24 bolt with 37x12” standard tires just like the vehicle was sold with. Drives great. Super happy. This is why I painted those tan...

    Any issues with running old surplus 37’s

    Hummer H1 has driven his rig with zero issues for over 300,000 miles on former military tires. He swears by them. Guy drives icy Winter conditions and drives to Death Valley in the Summer at 129 degrees. Same tires. PM him for his perspective.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    I’m not a fan, of tan. Rims were dirty as heck from storage. Washed with water and a scotch pad. Chamois dry and then prep work. Tedious part is taping off properly. Taping round rims with raised lips has to be done just right. 4 done. Six to go.

    NOOB. Looking for a little help joining the gang.

    AFAIK, Florida will no longer title these vehicles. If memory serves correctly If you want a legal option, Pony Up and purchase an H1. I suggest pre-1996 so as to avoid computer and DS4
