I've written about this in the past. I have pulled this thing no less than 3 times, replaced every seal and it still leaks. The transmission fluid seems to be coming from the trans shroud. Any Ideas? Both the trans and transfer case are new. The puddle of transmission fluid is about 1 days...

Anyone know the best way to hook up an Ibis Tek medium tow bar to a hmmwv? I apparently picked up the wrong size Ibis Tek feet as the pin on the feet is huge and won't go through the hole on that the shackle mounts to on the hmmwv bumper.

I touched on this earlier in another thread but the situation seems to be somewhat worse. I can't seem to nail the issue down as the symptoms change from time to time. The one constant is a rough idle. Initially the rough idle would go away after you drove the thing out of the neighborhood...

Hello I have a VIC 3 system that i'm having some issues with. The sound on it is spectacular with the exception of about every minute or two the person talking will sound choppy then it'll go to static, then you can talk again. It's really odd. I have 2 squawk boxes (full function crew...

Hello all, I have an M1101 that i recently repainted. In doing so i drilled out all the rivets to remove the data plates and reflectors. I realize now that i don't know what size/type rivet i need to put the data plates and the new reflectors on. If anyone knows where i can go to buys some...

I went to NAPA convinced i had the correct part number, but i was incorrect. I need a pinion seal for the rear differential where the drive shaft enters. Unfortunately i had a minor leak that i wanted to fix before the parade. I pulled the old seal. When i went to install the new one that...

I'm getting ready to do some painting. I got some Rapco 383 as well as a wire wheel to remove some rust. I have a question for a few spots that i want to attack. On the rear sponson where it contacts the body and where the recessed antenna mount is, it seems there is something that seals it...

I brought this out to Spencer Indiana to give the kids and adults something to play around with. I figure this'll give everyone an idea of what i'm working with whenever i ask questions LOL. This wall isn't as big or impressive as the one in DC, but it did give my dad a chance to say HI to...

So i've essentially fixed the majority of the leaks i can find and my m1025 is running great. I have noticed that when i let the thing sit for a while i lose tranny fluid like crazy. As long as it's running consistently, it seems to hold it all in and it dipsticks right at the hash marks...

I've been looking into brush guards for the HMMWV. I'm happy with not having one, but i bought this thing so i can spend quality time with my father wrenching on it, so the more opportunity to add/fix/replace stuff the better. Anyways there are many brush guards, and i'm sure i'll forget a...

So i'm meeting some friends for breakfast that want to see the new Hmmwv. As i'm driving down the highway the thing starts to track weird, i smell burning rubber and i pull off immediately. The issue is coming from the driver's side rear. It felt as if i lost the toe-in adjustment linkage on...

I've only seen these once. My goal is to make an aluminum shield replica. I have some dimensions i just need the riser to mount the shield to. http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p235/beltfed34/DSCN9746.jpg This is the only one i've ever seen listed...if anyone knows a source, please let me...

Just got my hmmwv and i'm having overheating issues. Today i took her out for the first time and i noticed that the temp gauge was reading kind of high but didn't waver from that position for a while. I later looked back and it was at 240. I immediately parked the thing and looked under the...

I'm trying to insure my newest acquisition. I'll be picking 'er up here soon and want to have insurance in place for the trip back. I got a picture of the title and I went to the same place where i have my house insured and they couldn't find AMG, 998, or any way to add such a short VIN...

I recently purchased some "route clearance" trucklite LED's I can find the individual lights all day long, i just can't find a wiring diagram, a switch, or where to mount them on a HMMWV. Any help? I have a pulse tech power distributor that i planned on using so getting power to them wont'...

Hello all, I plan on buying a rear tire carrier. I know of Rhino and Ibis Tek. Are there any others? I know that Ibis Tek recently released a new model. Does anyone know where to get one without signing up for a 2 year contract with the military? If not, i think i like the Rhino...

I just purchased this for a ton of money. It's an RT 1523B that's brand new, but not real. It's a trainer. Apparently you can't send or receive but it has all the other features for Radio folks to learn on. I jumped on it as i couldn't afford the $4,000 real thing. My question is this...

Here is where we are at currently. I want to make sure i have all the parts together before painting and i'm having issues. I know these things come demilled from the military... what all hardware is needed to restore this to working order? I guess i'm just looking for specific names for...

I'm looking to switch from halogen tail lights to LED. I've heard there are a few things you need to swap out to do so. I have the tail lights, i just need to know what else i need to make it work. Any help is appreciated :)
