Wasn't sure if I should put this in events or SE members forum. I hope i am in the right place. The purpose of this message is to see if there are any MV owners in the Atlanta area that would like to join me once a month or so to provide vehicle rides at a local museum and get paid for those...

I couldn't find much out there about this system, so I have done some tinkering and thought I would provide a report in case it helps someone else in the future. I picked one of the crew boxes up not knowing much about it. I couldn't find any instructions online and there are no info plates on...

So I know power comes in thru the U-229 on J1 of these thru pins A and F. It looks like A is the ground and positive voltage comes thru F. Can anyone confirm this? I am assuming operational voltage of 24v to 28v DC, but cannot find that info anywhere. Can anyone confirm? Doesn't look like...

I have a ferret with a broken gearbox dipstick. I am trying to remove it, and boy is this thing stuck. Will not budge. Before I mangle it too bad, I am trying to figure out if this dipstick is threaded, and if so, RH or LH threads. Any ferret owners out there who could let me knkw. Also...

I am normally pretty handy at finding the NSNs, even if it turns out I cannot afford what I want. However, this one is eluding me. Anyone know of there is an official NSN for the troop seat kit that goes on the back of a 4 man hmmwv? I can find all kinds of stuff for troop seats on the 2 man...

I posted something in the conversations forum a few days ago, but didn't receive much feedback, so I will try here hoping that this may be a more targeted audience. I am working with the Georgia/Atlanta Veteran's Day Parade organizers to put together a really strong MV motor pool for this...

I have been asked to secure vehicle volunteers for the Atlanta Veteran's Day Parade November 8, 2014. The focus of the parade this year is saluting WWII veterans, and we are trying to have at least 2 WWII Veteran's from each service to ride in the parade. Ideally, we would love to have WWII...

I found a 1960 manual for the AN/PIQ-5, not the January 1969 manual that seems to be more prolific. The 1960 manual shows an adaptor/splitter cable, which it indicates may be designated MX-2974. It essentially allows the user to command two bullhorns with one mic. I do not see a reference to...

I got tired of the C-2298s slinging around on the ends of the 4723s, didn't find great places to mount them in the HMMWV without making access to the radio and other accessories pretty difficult. I found some radiac mounts for sale, and I must say, these are ideal for mounting C-2298s. Perfect...

I am troubleshoot my HMMWV glow plug problem. I finished driving it on a multi-hour road march a couple of weekends ago. I left it sitting since. I was trying to start it a couple of days ago, and noticed that the glow plug light would instantaneously go out and the relays would not cycle.\...

I've seen all the discussion about VIC-1 install, pretty sure I understand the order, and I have all the hardware, but I'm looking for cables. At this point, I need a CX-10613, a CX-13089 and a few CX-4723s. Might get a spare CX-4720 too. I have ordered a few cables from Fair Radio (all...

I have an 85 HMMWV that I am trying to get insured. I have talked to a couple of insurance carriers, and they can't seem to wrap their heads around the fact that it doesn't have a standard VIN. Who are you guys using? If it matters, my state of residence is Georgia.

Thinking about getting one of these. They look like alot of fun, and there's room for the whole family and trips to Costco. Now for the open-ended questions... Does anyone have one of these or have familiarity with them? How are they as far as maintenance? Are spare parts available...

Looking for some yards and dealers in the SE. As weather gets warmer, I may take some road trips to look for things for the deuce and HMMWV. Nothing particular that I'm looking for, just seeking good places and good people that are within a couple hundred miles. As I'm just getting into this...

I am looking for driver and passenger side rear doors for HMMWV hopefully within 3 or 4 hours of Atlanta. Hard or soft doors are fine. If you have any that you are willing to part with, please drop me a PM. Thanks.
