Hint from a wheeled vehicle mechanic: download yourself a PDF of the technical manual (TM) of the version of your vehicle. Be aware of your serial #. There is a section in that TM called PMCS (preventative maintenance checks and services). It will walk you through before, during and after driving checks, as well as semiannual, annual, and biannual services. It has literally every piece of info you will ever need for your surplus vehicle.
The -10 manual is operator level. -20 and -30 manuals are your maintenance manuals. -14P is your parts manual that will have diagrams and part #'s for every single piece of the vehicle.
This video is an actual life saver! Just bought my first Humvee and am going through it getting it road ready while I wait on tags. I live in the land of high taxes and corrupt politicians that heavily salts roads during the winter. I use a product called fluid film as a yearly ritual on all my daily drivers to saturate the chassis to ward off the rust. I remembered this video when I put it up on the lift and starting checking. The right rear axle bolts at the brake rotor were not only loose, but were backing all the way out! One of them was hitting the caliper! I gave them all a checking. All others were tight.
I still need to change the oil in the hubs, but am shaking down other items first. Then will change all the fluids at once. I HATE the odor from the gear oil and it lingers for a long time in the shop once you let it out of the gearbox...so I'm waiting for a day when I can air out the heated shop to drain those.
Good stuff!!!!!!!!!
Where did you get your hummer?
Nathaniel Gordon I got it from a fellow that got it from the gov planet auctions. It came out of a Michigan auction.
Instablaster
Good job dude. I was a hummer driver in the Marine Corps. This makes me want to buy one of these suckers.
Thank you for the clarity and showing the safe processes. Using jacks and stands as well as putting the tire under the frame when working with the wheel off. I have lost 2 friends that did not take the time to do this and it cost them their lives.
I just changed my oil and it was black as sin. I didn't realise hib oil was a thing. Guess I know what I am doing next weekend! Thanks man! Great videos. Am learning a lot from you.
just bought me a humvee you saved me hours of research good job man. i live in pigeon forge tennessee in the mountains a cv coming out would disastrious in thje mountains in 3 feet of snow. good job. keep them coming.
90% of the time the U-joints have never been lubed on these trucks and believe me, you don't want to lose one on the road. But even before this for first time buyers download a copy of TM 11-2320-280-10 drivers handbook and read the damn thing! After Uncle spent millions writing technical manuals you'll be amazed at what your going to find in there.
Nice job!
I just bought a basic, M998. Very helpful.
Thanks for the demo
I already knew about the Detroits that the AM General HMMWV's have after dealing with them in G.M. Trucks.All the information is what I finally know about,after dealing with my M998 one step at a time for a fuck up...Thanks for the video,very informative.
All the fluids looked good
Thanks for the info. Just got my first humvee and need as much info on keeping it up!
Good job thanks for sharing yes chock those wheels
Great video! Thanks for making it.
Me encanta el Humvee y el cariño con el que lo cuidas!!! Yo en España tengo varios vehículos militares, espero poder comprar un Humvee pronto. Gracias por tus videos.
Dude, Yessssssss! Please keep doing these videos. Good camera shots, great explanation of the procedures, and very informative.
great job man!!! Another informative video.
william welch thanks buddy! My phone broke last week but I just got a new one. Will you text me so I have your #
What a great video. I keep on wanting to pull the trigger and pick up one of these.
All the information that you had provided should apply to any used vehicle you buy. Whenever I do buy a used vehicle no matter what it is the first thing I do is to drain out all the fluid except the transmission. If you work around car or your car into cars everybody knows about changing the fluid in the transmission. Not knowing what the previous owner had done you are looking for trouble if you drop that pan. It's happened to me it has happened to people I know and the people they people know that before 3,000 mi or less you're buying a new transmission. If you Google this there are millions of different views on this subject. Some people don't believe and there's others like myself that just know firsthand to leave the fluid alone and when needed.
The theory behind the fluid is that when the clutch plates in the automatic transmission start to wear down those particles are in the fluid what happens when that fluid is changed it takes everything out of there except for what would be stuck up in the upper part of the transmission. Then when you add your fluid you are deleting everything that was helping to keep your vehicle working.
Great video I'm looking forward to watching more of them.
Those tires are directional tires and the left ones are mounted on your rims backwards (driver's side)
Lol no they're not. Otherwise they'd say "rotation" with an arrow on the sidewall.
AWESOME Video!!! Thanks for this video!!! Atte: Pedro LEON
AWESOME!
Hubs - great point about making sure the fill plug will come loose before draining the fluid.....that would suck.
Wonder if Chiltons or Haynes has come out with a Service Manual for these rides?
Technical manual TM
Good video, music sucked...
JD Markham sorry, it was the best free no copyright music I could find. The other songs were even worse
I thought the music was very calming.. Showed some diverseness to the uploader. Great choice.
@@DakotaWoodHD you tried at least
@@DakotaWoodHD some basic metal riff would’ve done nicely
@@DakotaWoodHD The music was great.
Where do you get your hand calibrated so you can torque those bolts to the proper spec? I'd like to get my hand calibrated to so I can stop using this damn torque wrench, LOL.
haha uhh I use a Harbor Freight special hand torque calibration gauge
Are those tires directional? Pass front and drivers rear should have been swapped.
Good video I’m buying a humvee tomorrow. What type of axle lube are you using? Is it same on the cv, and diff?
I’ll be watching your other videos.
ayy more hmmwv videos
Dakota, any tips on engine inspection on one of these auction vehicles?
Hi thanks for the video! my military humvee is finally on a truck and enroute! How much gear oil do I need to buy? and is it sae 80w-90? any you recomend? and same for hubs and differential? Do you have a video for the oil/trans fluid/and air filter change! Thank you so much very helpful.
Honestly bud I would check the gear oil to see if you need to change it first if it’s black then yeah change it if not then don’t and probably like a half a gallon to a little bit less than a half a gallon for each side
youre supposed to use paint marker, its called a torque mark
4:34 what happened when you tried to rotate the tyre? Looks like it just popped out of place or something
How do you know when its enough grease ? I never know if its too much or too little
I have heard of cases where a humvee will loose a wheel at highway speeds. I am purchasing one next week as long as it all checks out and was wondering if anyone knows what to check for regarding this. I know there was a fix for it that I would imagine most military surplus ones would have had done.
Michael Saunders I would look online on some website called Steel soldiers for a detailed list of what you need to do when you first buy a Humvee. The main thing to check is your spindle nuts. You need to make sure they are torqued properly and the locking tabs are on properly. If that is all good then you won’t have any problems.
A torque wrench would be your friend when checking for tightness
What’s the price range of the humvee to buy from you when it’s done?
Ah yes, the universal torque method when a torque wrench isn't available, Gutenteit. This generally works on chassis bolts and single bolt suspension components, but you will come out ahead in the long run with a torque wrench on things that reciprocate, have stress from opposing directions, or heat cycle. Brake discs have the latter two.
Curious, have you actually had a cv shaft bolt that was loose? Also, would it be a good idea to apply loctite on the bolts?
What kind of fluid do you replace it with?
How come you didn’t check you hub bolts while you were there. Don’t want your tire falling off due to GI joe not getting the tabs lined up.
How often would you want to do this maintenance on the humvee
oil change is after several thousand miles, but I would say check at least once a year unless you make a daily driver then pobably 4 to 6 months and regular inspections for leaks. the axle bolts were a nonstop problem when I was in the Army, I checked the ones in my section after every Field Ex. and we didn't drive more than 50 miles. if I had one as a Civilian , I would replace all the hardware with high quality bolts and with Lock-tite applied to the threads or even go to cross drilled bolts and install lockwire, they worked loose all the time.
Where do you get replacement parts from?
What fluid did you use for the hubs and the diff???? Details on vid...???
Gear oil, obvi
I noticed that on the front two wheels the tread patterns are facing different ways. Are the tires not directional on a HMMWV?
No they're not directional
Can you help me out? What is the bed width and length of the Humvee in 4 door truck configuration. Looking to see if you can make a helmet top Humvee into a camper or if the rear is too small for that
Just buy one of the Ambulances. It'll be far better setup for your needs
Start saving up for the repair bills?
Did you grease the steering shaft fitting (under the dash)?
Good vid. Tho..
You’re like Seth Everman with hair
I just purchased a 1988 -1038 and noticed this rack below the tail gate. it un-clips at the rear from the frame and swings down. It has two fabric straps. looked thru several manuals and found nothing...
jim dufour I believe it is for the Pioneer tool kit, a shovel and other tools fit on the rack.
@@DakotaWoodHD Your the best- let me look into it!!
Where u fill the brake fluid?
Where do you recommend for getting parts, like bushings, links, etc for the suspension, or brakes for that matter?
The Saucy Goblin Shark Usually ebay, Hummerpartsguy.com , and Kascar. Sometimes I just google the part I need and a few other sites will pop up.
Ive been researching how to make them street legal, are you in FL by chance? How do you keep the DMV from recognizing it as a "former military vehicle" and slapping a limited off road use constraint on the title?
What do I have to look for when buying one from auction, as far as paperwork goes?
Thanks, I saved it. You can delete that previous post if you want so nobody else will have it, I will contact you later when I have time.
where you able to register it ?
Try replacing a number 2 cross member. It is a pain lol.
Looking to get one of these in the future. Are they road legal from Govplanet or do they need to be certified?
You can opt to pay for a SF97 upon purchase. And a bill of sale, then take to tag office or DMV. Some states won't issue tags for a surplus Humvee so do your homework
What is the price in the US for a surplus Humvee?
White out will wash off with any amount of water.
bud, you should always chock your wheels if you are doing this.
dont be a hater. hes on a flat surface, your right but how bout a nice video dude chalk the tires for safety. gotta love a pessimist.
@@CB-kw9we he’s not being a pessimist. That’s not the definition of a pessimist. He was just saying hey Chuck your wheels if you’re doing this-
Hey bro , i really want to get a hummer for my first car and learn how to work on it , can i live in you're backyard(or nearest public forest) and live in a fighting hole for two weeks while you teach me how to work on a humvee , once i get one of these things
A fine Murican haha yeah man I’ll clear out my shed in the back for you 😂
I was lucky that im a short guy (5'6") cause ridding in the back of a humvee was slightly less shitty. The poor guy beside me was 6'2" and was eating his knees
Where do you get one?
Can I ship my M1123 Humvee to you for you to do some maintenance that I have no skill of doing?
How many foot pounds you got that torque wrench set to?
3 and a half ugga uggas
i have a question Dakota, I will be getting one soon in an auction, and i noticed that the fuel cap say f5-8 fuel only, then and the bottom it also says diesel fuel . can we use regular pump diesel ? I know j5-8 is jet fuel so did i screw by buying that humvee? thanks
Hey! I have never known of anyone using anything but regular diesel in their Humvee.
@@DakotaWoodHD Thanks for the info, thats what I thought, btw i saw your video of 2 to 4 door conversion , awsome video, i am thinking of doing the same thing when i get mine, where did you get the kit from and what does that cost , thank you
A Compression Ignition Engine (Diesel) can consume any Diesel,Oil,or Fluid but the Fuel Pump is the one that takes a beating for a Rebuild.The only Engine in the Military that had no issue with using different Fuels compared to other Diesels was the LDT-427,LDT-465,LT-465,& LDS-465 Multi-Fuels that the M51A2-M62A2 & M35A2-M185A3 Trucks had,as well as the D333C that the Caterpillar Goers had.To make any other Diesel Engine successfully run on anything,you will need a Bosch VE or Inline Fuel Pump to make it easier.The VE44 is what the 12 Valve Cummins has.
Hey bro what’s a good way to get into contact with you have a few questions for you thanks
Davy
SELECTEES CHIEF you can call or text me at 4075087321 any time you want
Hey man. I’m on Florida too and i have a question as well. Is it ok to text you or call? Nice job on your videos!! Keep it up! 😉
How did you learn all this
Where the brakes are they hard to change
I would use I torque wrench before I mark them
How much we need to spend to buy
Where I can get Humvee? I live in Canada.
Kirit vara iron plannet
It would need to be shipped thogh
YOU CAN NEVER SHUT ME UP, SHUT ME UP!
Great info in the video, but sheesh the same annoying song for the whole 15 minutes?!
skip to 1:00
seems like he was looking for a reason to show off the new truck. why would the cv shafts be loose, lol.
Stacey B Ah you got me! 😂😁
Aaron B They can work lose from time to time. Especially after continued off road driving.
That’s the dumbest comment I’ve seen in a while.
Buy a pneumatic wrench to simplify everything.....
Hi there do you have e-mail address? I would like to ask something about humvee
Thanks
yes, it is Dakotawoodhd@gmail.com
hello, i have some question i want to ask personally. how do i contact you. I am from India.
Hello! Do you have Facebook? Or you could email me.
My email is Dakotawoodhd@gmail.com
Great vídeo Bro. Will keep watching them but please lose the music. Not everyone has the same taste but all who come to your channel like the ideas
Didn't pop up in my notifications,,
Im a 91 bravo the first thing you do is throw it away.
hello, is it possible to know an address or a website, to be able to buy a humvee before 1990, in good condition and a correct price, thank you in advance, Jean Yves
Apart from that annoying song rest all is fine, Those are uni directional tyres you're running on and the right front is in wrong direction fyi.
This is not real HMMWV owner music. Sounds like a chick flick.
Good video, music REALLY sucked...
I had to ditch the video. The music really, SUCKS.
And why do you have to do all this torquing .why got nothing better or just to or show off
Not sure why you think i'm trying to show off.. It's an important thing to check when you first get a Humvee.
good video, the gay music is annoying though......
bad music
Yeah I know. I’m planning on making a completely new video now that I have way more experience with these trucks and making videos.
I gave up after five minutes of shit music.....
only no copyright music I could get. I'm having some friends who are music producers make me some good background music.
