    Humvee 6.5L engine block coolant plug

    So you replaced all the rivets across the center raised section of the hood with bolts to attach the rubber strip material? Also looks like you made your own steel backer strips. Nice work.

    Windshield Frame

    Thanks for the feedback guys. Kascar has a set of weld on brackets for the roof mounts, so I was thinking of taking that route. I believe the alloy used in the humvee is 6000 series, but I need to confirm that before I can weld. I see NOS soft top windshield frames listed for very reasonable...

    Windshield Frame

    Hello, Does anyone know what the structural differences are between the soft top and hard top versions of the front windshield frame besides the corner brackets that accept the roof mounts? I know the defroster vents are different between the two and the hard top frame has threaded holes for...

    2 position electrical connector

    Hello, I am trying to source both halves of an electrical connector that is used in a few locations on the 6.5L engine harness. This connector is used in the interface to the tachometer sending unit and also on the crank sensor at the front of the engine on the drivers side. It is a 2...

    Humvee 6.5L engine block coolant plug

    Thanks NDT, DREDnot, and Action for your feedback. After doing some research using the information you provided I was able to find some pictures of the engine without the transmission installed that shows the drain pipe. Now I see that my 1025A2 is actually set up with the correct valley...

    Humvee 6.5L engine block coolant plug

This hole is between...

    M1101/M1102 Trailer Body Panels

    Thanks for the input Buffalobwana. I will post some pictures when I return from traveling, but in the mean time I have a few questions. You mention welding the body panels as an option, but I was under the impression that the trailer body is made from the same type of aluminum as the Humvee...

    M1102 Trailer Body Panels

    Thanks Shark Bait. I left a message at Schutt and waiting for them to get back to me. Would be great if these part were available as surplus, but so far I have not been able to find any.
