    700R4 transmission in a HMMWV

    It has been an amazing upgrade for me. I did however do the turbo upgrade offered by B&S. Adds another 100hp ish. I still have trouble on hills on the freeway with passengers, but it’s way better. I also have 40” tires. If I went down to smaller tire, I’m sure it would help

    Alternator/Generator housing broke. Repair?

    dang I tried brazing alloy from a local welding supply and no go… I hooked up the alternator after my quick fix and it’s not charging. I think I just got it too hot😢😩. I should have waited for more advice… $800 mistake. Ugh

    Alternator/Generator housing broke. Repair?

    Than thanks. Here is what I came up with for the weekend. I tried to aluminum braze the metal, but it wouldn’t take.

    Alternator/Generator housing broke. Repair?

    I tried to separate the case, but it's pretty involved. I think it's aluminum?

    Alternator/Generator housing broke. Repair?

    I don't have machining equipment unfortunately. It's not magnetic, so I'm assuming it's cast aluminum? I wouldn't mind purchasing some steel for you to do some magic!

    Alternator/Generator housing broke. Repair?

    I forgot to put the spacer in and broke the housing. Can it be welded? If not does anybody know where I could get a new case because the alternator is good still. TIA!

    CV boot on HMMWV

    This is a great writup. I used what you said and this was super easy. No need to buy new shafts if they are t making noise IMO. My rig has low miles, but 30 years of rubber sitting causes the boots to break and start throwing grease. I am super diligent about maintenance so lucked out to see...

    4L80E shifter assembly wiring help please

    So apparently one is for the back light, and the other for the Park safety switch. The unit did not come with a reverse switch

    4L80E shifter assembly wiring help please

    I see 5 wires that exit the shifter. I am changing it for a 3L 80 shifter because I’m doing a 700R4 conversion. Three of the five wires fit perfect and match up to number stamps, but the other two I’m not sure what they go to. Can anybody help with this? Thank you!

    700R4 transmission in a HMMWV

    Oh cool. I guess you used the old shifter? I say that Bc there are 5 wires off the new HMMWV shifter that came with the 4L80E transmission in the M998. 3 are the same. Wondered if it was reverse lights. That would be awesome bc I have a separate switch for that

    700R4 transmission in a HMMWV

    Omg I feel so dumb!!! Thanks so much. I was confused bc they sent a transmission mount with the transmission that is not necessary! Ha! Happy I don’t have to deal with that. Do the 2 extra wires coming off the 4L80 shifter hook directly to the 2 wires out of the transmission? Does it matter which?
