    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Mine did the same thing when I got it. I only found out because my wife followed me one day. It is a pretty easy adjustment, just a lot easier with a second set of eyes so you can adjust and test till it works as you want. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    FL Insurance policies

    I just checked my policy and it actually does not say. I know I called USAA and they wouldn’t insure it so they transferred me to Progressive Commercial and told them I had a commercial vehicle to insure. I have insurance but honestly don’t believe it is enough so looking elsewhere where I can...

    Alternator

    I do know I had the washer in mine. It even fell out yet again when I just took alternator off. I may have found a new metal one from Russel’s. Will find out early next week. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Alternator

    So driving to store and my belts suddenly started screaming at me. Opened hood and belts were loose on alternator. When I went to fix it, found that the bottom mount broke off housing. New housing piece or whole new alternator? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    pics please of rear/forward camera screen mounting?

    It does, but currently I only use pintle for snatch rope so I turn it sideways to open it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    pics please of rear/forward camera screen mounting?

    Put mine where a rear view mirror would be. It is always in if HMMWV is on. This way I can also use as rear view mirror especially when back curtain is on and vision is restricted Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    A2 M1123 - Troubleshooting Stop Lamp Switch

    For what it is worth... When I first got my HMMWV, the brake lights would not come on unless I had brake pushed all the way in. Problem was that by that time I was already at a complete stop so nobody behind me knew when I was slowing down to stop. For me it was a simple adjustment of the...

    Humvee Rear driveshaft

    I would verify with them first. When I got mine I called them to sign up and was told they will not cover the HMMWV. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Humvee Rear driveshaft

    I completely agree... I would never drive it without one if it was not needed. This is why I simply drove straight home and put her in the garage until fixed. I've paid a couple rather expensive tow bills on this already and it would have been outrageous amounts to get it pulled out of the...

    Humvee Rear driveshaft

    I broke my front half shaft when I was on the trail and drove home (about 30 miles) no problem in HL. I did not drive it again until I replaced it, but if you need to get it somewhere it will work.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    When you go through Mobile how far you going? I’m right off I-10 and Avalon (exit 22 after the bridge) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Power Steering Gear Box

    That part number referenced above Auto Zone says they have in stock until you go to checkout then it is unavailable. They called Napa and they cross referenced the part to a Napa part, but that turned out to be the wrong part all together, mounting holes did not even line up. Rock Auto has it...

    Buyer's Regret?

    Not sure what others have dealt with, but when I first got mine, my insurance company did put a bunch of 1s after my vin to make it 16 digits. About a month later I received a letter from the state saying my VIN did not match and that I needed to contact them. I called and let them know and...

    4 man soft top modifications

    I looked into Mojojeep tops and they are willing and able to do custom tops. They told me one with graphic would be around 350 as the width of it they have to print it on two tops and sew them together.

    Power Steering Gear Box

    Thank you for the input, this helps a lot. The reason I think that mine is out is not only because I have not had power steering in a couple months now even with new pump, but now it decided to dump all the fluid out of it where the pitman arm attaches. Was going to just do a rebuild, but was...

    Power Steering Gear Box

    Ok... working on trying to get this thing out of my HMMWV and I have a bolt that no matter what I’ve done will not budge... any tricks on getting it out? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Backup camera solution?

    Something else to think about is if you even want it on a switch. Mine is wired to always be on when I'm driving and it works great since there is no rearview mirror. I actually mounted my monitor up by the wiper motor so I is more less where a rearview mirror would be anyway. Mine was wired...

    Jack Stands for HMMWV m998

    I too am using a high lift with jack stands. Only time I ever had an issue with it was the first time I tried the jack out and I forgot to chock the wheels...

    Has anyone seen this AWESOME spare tire rack system?

    I would think so... I personally was just doing an inquiry for the group. I want to find a way to mount mine upright in the bed, but have not found a way to do so yet. Honestly it has not been a high priority though. If running around town where I might actually use the bed to haul something...
