    HHMWV Fuel tank leak

    Don't try to drop the tank until you have used a long screwdriver on the filler neck hose clamps. I had to jam a piece of wood, between the tank and frame, in order to get enough room for the screwdriver. My problem was solved.

    Parts for Scepter cans

    Thanks. But, it turned from a missing gasket to a missing flange unit. The gasket has to fit around the protruding center section of the flange. Just the gasket might work, but wouldn't work as designed. Maybe that's how the water cans were made? I ended up buying one of those aluminum flanges.

    Parts for Scepter cans

    I just found that my cap is missing the flange/gasket unit altogether. It would have been nice if the person I bought it from would have mentioned it. Now I'm trying to find the entire unit, but I'm only finding a couple of after market units.

    Parts for Scepter cans

    I looked on eBay and didn't see any for a Scepter cap. Unless the ones for the "metal" gas cans will fit.

    Replacement Covers for high back seats?

    I got a pair form Jatonka, and they fit so tight I actually ripped both trying to slip them on. The rips aren't large, but maybe they should have had extra stitching in the are where the back meets the sides.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Mine is an '87 M998 and none of my connectors are empty. Maybe they weren't thinking of backup lights then?

    Speaker for HMMWV Laptop

    OK. I didn't even think of the speaker needing it's own power source. Maybe their instructions with help with that also.

    Speaker for HMMWV Laptop

    Would the 19V going into the 24V speaker make any difference in sound quality or anything else?

    Speaker for HMMWV Laptop

    Thanks. I've ordered the speaker so I'll have to see what instructions come with it. My concern is if the docking station is wired in for 24V, would there be some sort of difference for the CB installation? Or, does the docking station convert the juice back for something that works off of 12V...

    Speaker for HMMWV Laptop

    Checking to see if anyone has wired a military speaker into their laptop. Specifically, I'm thinking of using this speaker from The Military Guys, http://www.thosemilitaryguys.com/military-loud-speaker-n-o-s-now-with-instructions-for-wiring-to-cb/ , and wiring it into the docking station the...

    Cool option for mounting a "step" to access the bed

    Looks like it could use some heavy and deep checkering on the ring.

    sharing my hmmwv restore/ repurpose for civilian use

    I don't know if the tires are "supposed" to be that way. Goodyear says they are directional, so I lean in the direction of being too lazy to care which way they are going when they are mounted. Apparently, when driving there isn't a lot of noticeable difference which way they are mounted...

    HMMWV Fuel Fill Up - Overflows from tank?

    I was able to get by with tightening the hose clamps on the filler neck. To get to the one close to the tank I had to wedge a piece of wood between the tank and the frame in order to get a screwdriver in there. It worked.

    Should be kinda fun. Wheeler Dealer is doing an episode on a Humvee on 2 Jan.

    Labor costs not being mentioned is what has always got me about the show. It's one thing if you are a private person doing the work as a hobby. It's quite another for these guys being portrayed as business men, where in reality they almost never make a profit on the cars they sell, if the labor...
