    Are you mad that the gov is selling HMMWVs?

    Those of you that have HMMWVs from the USMC auction years ago, are you mad that the gov is selling HMMWVs again and causing the value of your vehicle to drop? Is this one of the reasons the board is so anti-registration? Just wondering.

    If I grab the left rear and right front half shaft under my HMMWV I am able to wiggle them left and right about 1/16 to 1/8 of an inch. The boots are not torn. Is this amount of articulation normal or is there some sort of adjustment to make?
