    Power Steering Leaks

    I just went through the power steering on my 998 and found a couple leaks. One leak was the seal on the input shaft on the steering gearbox and the other was the pump. I pulled the gearbox off and cleaned it before tear down. I pulled the top lock nut off and removed the packing gland. Then I...

    Gorilla (glue)Snot On Steering Wheel

    I used the 1008 and tow bar to recover a nice 1009 today. I know that it has sat for a little over 2 years. The odometer is showing 13,878 miles and going by what I see, I think the mileage may be correct. The sun has taken a toll on the dash pad but everything else seems to be good. This thing...

    MEP-016A Help

    I tried to search the site and the web but still came up empty handed. I have a good looking mep-016a that has less than 10 hours on it. I believe that to be the correct run time because everything looks to be that clean. The screws on the hour meter are rusted and the rust stain is in the hour...

    Rear Wheel Caster

    When I got the 998 the right rear geared hub was not on it. The top control arm was missing also. I bought a top control arm and installed everything. Now after the test drive I have noticed that the right rear wheel is out too far at the top. Did I get the wrong top control arm? I did check the...

    Need to check wiring

    I finally have the 998 about ready to test drive. Before I put power on the truck again I would like to check the wiring for anything that may cause more problems. Last time I tried this I had a EESS box failure and had to replace all glow plugs and the EES box as well. I have used the ohm...

    Exploding Glow Plugs!

    I finally got everything bolted up tight and filled all fluids yesterday. I decided it was time for the ultimate smoke test. I double checked everything and hit the start switch. It was a little slow to spin but then it came to life.:beer: The engine ran great. It idles smooth but seemed a...

    Mechanical modulator

    Anyone have a good source for the mechanical modulator and cable for the 3L80 transmission in an M998? I pulled the transmission out of a 1008 and now I need to replace the vacuum type with a mechanical one to get this thing to shift.aua Thanks Sarge29

    Now the search begins.

    :jumpin: Well I just became the owner of a slightly used HMMWV. It is an M998 that will need some work to get it back on the road. But with a few parts and a couple sheets of sandpaper it will be as good as new. As they say " it just needs a little spit and polish"!:roll: The previous owner...

    Water Pump Help

    I just purchased and installed a kit for the M151 water pump. Assembly was easy and it looked good when finished. After putting it on and filling with antifreeze I fired it up only to find the new kit (seal) is leaking. I let it run at idle for about an hour and kept an eye on it to keep it from...

    Early M151 Question

    I have been working on the restoration of an M151 and would like to be sure that I can get as much of it right as possible. My question is: What are the differences between the 151 and the 151A1? Things I know about are: A1 had turn signals and 151 didn't A1 had a blackout light in the right...

    MEP 003 Died

    I was running my generator for an old timers reunion for my old NG unit when it just shut down. I restarted it and as soon as I released the start switch after holding it long enough for the oil pressure to build up it shuts down every time. I checked the oil pressure switch and it is good. A...

    H1 bias ply with a tube in it?

    Just curious if anyone has ever ran the bias tire with the beadlock removed and a tube put in. I want to use this setup for a highway spare but not if it is a death trap. I just need a spare and this one has good tread but the local tire shop boogered up the bead and it wont seal with the...

    Deadly shakes

    I have an 85 1008 that gets a deadly front end shimmy when I hit a bump in the road. It just does not do it every time. I have replaced tie rod ends, drag link, shocks and steering damper. I had the tires ballanced and the front end checked by 2 different shops. Everyone tells me that everything...

    Need Parts

    OK, I know the standard people that sell mighty mite parts, but I wanted to see if anyone here had any parts for sale. I have the shutters and the screen that goes in front of them. I am looking for all of the rest of I guess what you would call the grill parts. The mite I just bought is missing...
