Lmao, too funny. Yeah the stuff NHTSA and DOT can come up with. Its debatable whether those foolish brackets would actually catch and hold the hood anyway in a collision. Glenn

Those brackets that were required by NHTSA to be installed on the civ sale vehicles are NOT # 27 in the exploded view posted. They are additional parts that are not shown on that diagram. # 27 can be used with the standard unarmored or the supplemental armor glass using the rubber gaskets that...

Any time you want to drive a Commercially operated Class A vehicle you simply have to get your Medical Cert and convert your Non-Commercial Class A to a CDL Class A. And adhere to FMCSA rules when operating COMMERCIAL. Also OUI BAC regs which are tougher only apply when you are driving...

Class A and Class B are license classes that are standardized nationwide now. Class B will allow driving of a non-Class A vehicle regardless of weight. So the weight has nothing to do with this situation presented by the M818. This truck is a tractor. ALL tractors must be operated by a Class...

Hey Ohio, I can say that the 92 and 93 Civilian truck bodies are pretty much the same as the military versions. Beginning with the 94 model year, AM General began to produce Civilian hummers that diverged in many ways as the years went on, more and more from the military model. Under the...

The Military Transport Assn of New Jersey supplies all types of military vehicles including humvees all the time for photo ops and movie productions. They also supply personnel and drivers as needed. The have an officer in the MTA who is tasked with handling all the vehicle rentals. Just hop...

MWO - Modification Work Order. Yes on that trailer you can clearly see the MWO work right in the picture. There are 3 orders . 2 are actual changes, and 1 order for just an inspection. And even if it wasnt done, you would never have to worry about it. You will never test the unit to...

Yes. Just looked at the pics. It does have the MWOs done on it. Nice find.

In 1996, just before the first of the USMC sales, there was according to most experts, approx 6 humvees were in private hands in the US. They were selling for an average price of up to 55K. These were legitimately sold by AMG and made their way in to the used vehicle market. The rest of the...

I agree on the air filter check. Also it is not uncommon for people to put ATF in the hubs to try to improve fuel mileage. Since you are a new owner of this vehicle you may find all kinds of stuff that you will change to the way you want it from the way someone else did it. I would be pleased...

RIP John. You will be missed.

We found that the Federal FMVSS requirements not applying to a military vehicle built for the government ONLY apply to the use of the vehicle(humvee) by the government. The states still have the right to require that the vehicle (any vehicle) conform to the FMVSS/NHTSA standards for its class...

Hi depdog, The antenna brackets used on the rear fender of the HMMWV and the 800/900 series 5 tons are totally different. The light duty bracket for the HMMWV that is mounted on the rear fender above the taillight is used with both the VRC46 family radios(MX6707 TUNER) as well as the newer...

Bought 1996, still have it 16 years later:beer:

The GoodYear plant that is making the 16.5 inch 37 Wrangler MT HMMWV tire is working 2 shifts straight out producing these tires. There are making a ton of them but they are just barely filling the Gov't contracts. There are not any making it out to civy channels. For now. I understand BF...

Pictures did not come through.

A. If you go on to the Hummer Mailing List forum, H1 and Humvee Section there is a full thread on using replacements from McMaster Carr. I have used them for years now. Work great. And are way cheaper. B. You will find that the valves are not your problem/or only problem. The main issue...

Check your PMs. I sent you some info on the trailers.

Different transfer case in the 1008 vs the humvee. The humvee 218 is heavier duty and if it has the hd humvee transfer case used now which is the NVG242AMG it is heavier still. Different bolt patterns. U will have to use the adapter that was in the humvee between the trans and tcase. This...

That depends on how it is built and registered. If it is a Heavy Hummer, HHV Variant or ECV or similar with the 10,000 lb or above GVWR then it would be a Class 3 truck and completely street legal on any road where Class 3 trucks are allowed. To be completely street legal for a civilian, the...
