    Flat towing Humvee with 40,000 lb military tow bar

    What are your opinions on flat towing a Humvee? I have a 40,000 lb military tow bar. The trip would be a thousand miles. I would probably bring two Humvee tires with me just in case I ran into problems I am wondering if I would need to remove the drive shafts? I have seen the Marines...

    auto trailer

    Did you experience a lot of sway while hauling with the uhaul trailer? I am concerned that I won't be able to travel at highway speeds without sway. Was yours a 2 door or 4 door with a soft top of hard top? Mine is a M1097A2 2 door pickup with an empty bed. I own a trailer that is similar to...

    Quick ? on sway with U haul style trailer

I appreciate the replies. But it seems that no one...

    Quick ? on sway with U haul style trailer

    I have a similar trailer to the type used for auto transport by Penske and u Haul. I need to load and transport a Hmmwv roughly 1000 miles. Hauling it home with this trailer will allow me to take the more comfortable vehicle on my trip. (Sprinter RV) I am concerned with sway and having to slow...

    EPROM’s

    Are you saying that you were able to replace the TCM 2100 with this unit you are referring to and do you have a part number? Is this something I can go to the junkyard and grab from a GM vehicle. I appreciate the fast response.

    EPROM’s

    If somebody can point me to a refurbished one for $200 that would be great. I have a failed tcm-2100. @twisted60 How did testing for spares work out? I trying to figure out the most economical way ahead to get my truck on the road. Has anyone found a rebuild service that is reasonable. Is...

    2010 6.5 4l80 gets to 50 no overdrive and no trans light

    I noticed that this ground wire is loose, could that cause the TCM code or would that have caused several others codes? I may tighten it and reinstall to see if the problem remains, unless the loose wire would have caused a bunch of codes or no codes at all. Thanks

    2010 6.5 4l80 gets to 50 no overdrive and no trans light

    Is there a replacement TCM that makes sense. I was watching a YouTube video and a person stated that the guys at steel soldiers helped him find a TCM replacement on from rock auto. Unfortunately, he didn't list a part number or price but stated that was cheaper than he was able to find one. My...

    2010 6.5 4l80 gets to 50 no overdrive and no trans light

    I have taken apart the original TCM. The seal on the case was pretty strong. It is completely dry. I test continuity between the two purple plugs and the J1 and the other 6 pin external TCM connector. I get continuity across all connections. k to c15 .3 ohms of resistance g to D16 .3...
