I’ve created a FB group call New Jersey HMMWV owner group. It’s a place to start. Https://www.facebook.com/groups/NJHOG Short cut NJHOG

I’m trying to pull local owners together for some camaraderie and camping etc. The pine barrens are a easy to access spot I discovered. Perhaps I should make a public Facebook page for the NJ crowd if enough people are interested. Let me know if you are “local” for this and interested in...

Just dropped in a new 60 amp alternator. Fired up and after a couple min I noticed a bit of smoke coming from the guts of it. **** down, let cool, fires back up and it did it a bit less after a 2 min idle. Then Shut down. Little smoke for a few sec. then stopped. Now as we know these new 60...

Finally getting around to those clearance lights. What I'm atempting to wire in is the center bar.... three windshield clearance lights of an H1... a positive and negative wire connection. I see the Y connector layout...is that red to be the positive wire and the negative wire I would connect...

Just replaced the EESS, glow plugs and 60 amp alternator. Truck finally starts up like a champ! Though bizarre issue is the voltage gauge. Replaced items, stated up for first time ..great....gauge was low yellow, slowly building to mid and stayed.... at idle sits mid yellow and sits mid green...

Alternator rebuild based on .... Very good and detailed info!!! I just ordered a new unit but intend on having the old one rebuilt and shelved as a back up. I'll try to document the rebuild and photograph based on what you are describing. Illustrating what actually fails would be a good...

Just purchased the kit. Easy install. Just incredibly hard to access the cluster of plugs for the tail light as they were encased in a metal shield. That will take some time. Otherwise looks great. Thanks for the tip. Did you end up needing the grounding wire included? Not sure if it is...

Found out that TSU doesn't need to be changed. Even tried to adj the 60amp alternator and had it running at 28.2 Volts out put for a day. Next day was seeing massive spikes in Volt meter when revving. Shut down and will replace the starter box with new one, glow plugs as there was a severe...

Great Pics.! I used / referenced this and posted a short video on my YOUTUBE channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jge5opMXmjw

Will give that a try. Appreciate the feedback! acquiring a voltmeter as I am seeing a strong use for one with this vehicle. More tools! Love this truck.

Consulted with tech staff at thosemilitaryguys and they stated they have been successful upgrading to the newer EESS without upgrading TSU, never having a problem. But I did some work on the vehicle this past weekend, just swapped out the batteries with some grp. 34 1000 ampers and installed...

That is exactly how mine arrived.

Very happy to have the truck. Time to tinker! In prep, have Kascar grounding harness ready to go as I knew that would be important. Will install, then replace with new group 34 batteries. Worst case, new box. Will upgrade to the S3. Received mixed info on the (correct term?)..TSU. If...

Doesn't get cleaner than that! Nice find.

WOW....great idea, nice and clean. Good source of components. Much appreciated! The LED Im adding to the front are clearance lights.

don't touch....What are you referring to?

Finally received my M998. Batteries are sulfated probably, They jumped/started it to load onto the carrier but would not resort. Initially told him the correct way to connect the cables, still didn't have amps to crank over but the wait light would light and go out properly. Time the driver...

Finally have my M998 in my hands. Have two things I plan to install and just want to double check with anyone who may have done the same. 1. Have LED marker light plan to install, front. 2. License plate holder with light Which wires are ok to tap into?

Gotcha👍 I see what you mean about the trim getting hammered and closing... especially around the corners. Good idea to lubricate prior for the removal. Will look at various tooling to accomplish what you are referring to with the opener. I'll record what I can and if or what works I'll...

Just acquired some xdoors. Ordered new weather trim/seals from Kascar. Has anyone ever replaced old seals with OEM? Hoping to do this without removing the rivets and trim. Looking for tips on removal (as it looks like the toothed insert could break apart). Install...possible with a lubricant...
