Humvee Duramax Upgrade

[@dlz1622]

sooner or later I will be your customer, such terrific monster is what I can not live without

[@hummervs3278]

Do you have yours yet? If not, set a date and make a plan. Then go play!

[@austin1022]

Ooooooh, I am saving up to get this as my first car. They are so affordable

[@skeltonslay8er781]

Why the fuck don’t I do that?

[@bluemopdisaster6445]

@@skeltonslay8er781 you should save up for Humvee you could buy one from them right there and while you're there they'll probably ask you if you want it upgraded or something like that. I am extremely interested in buying a Humvee from them I would like for them to upgrade it. All I need it to save some money right now I only have $100.

Edit: Apparently dan has ghosted me when following up on getting additional repairs covered by Plan B after I had gotten the vehicle home with under 1700 miles on it. It took two trips a couple days each , up to Utah from Texas to pick-up my Duramax conversion. Several issues were identified with the build, and they were addressed, but it took them SEVERAL attempts to get things right. If you guys at Plan B are ready to resume talks about covering the additional repairs, and ill consider taking down this comment. Additional repairs to shift linkage and electrical system were required, aside from the additional grinding I had to personally perform on my brake calipers since no shops locally wanted to perform the repair due to safety concerns. I've been patient with waiting on a response.

What was their last response to you?

Good to know. Thanks for commenting. This was one of the companies I was thinking about using for my H1 conversion

@@chadkeech226 sure thing. Still chasing electrical gremlins out of it off and on.

What is that blue top at 1:55? That doesn't look like your standard wagon-back hard top (like at 1:51). The blue one looks like it adds 6+ inches of head room!

[@lt9690]

Its a removable fiberglass helmet top

Helmet hat is a little goofy looking to me 😂

What's the advantage a duramax have over a hemi or cummins?

[@commonmockery1074]

You've already shown that you do Duramax conversions, but would you be willing to do a Cummins conversion? And would you still be able to do an Allison transmission with it?

[@jthetunes1]

They definitely do Cummins swaps. There's a more in-depth video they have and they talk about the benefits of each (Duramax vs Cummins). He talked about the Cummins being mostly an all mechanical engine which I think is really cool.

[@K0WB0Y-KEV]

jason laplume which video is that?

[@braedonwells7616]

Fuel mileage with the duramax conversion?

[@zacmathews5989]

How much is a 4 door full conversion turn key. without prior ownership of the truck?

[@rambo4war]

Street use is ok, but the minute you take all of that torque off-road or rock crawling expect to snap something. There’s a reason why they are slow in stock form

[@Onyx408]

What’s the average cost in converting with the interior?

[@miguelestrada8779]

Probably more then an h1, that's if you add the cost of the vehicle as well.

[@geneclemetson4779]

Is it possible to do a Duramax or equivalent Cummins to manual transmission conversion?

[@snazzymcnazmy]

I heard it's a bit difficult due to the sheer width of the vehicle and how far away the driver is from the transmission

[@GelsonMwale]

Can you make it RHD?

[@devingarrison5265]

What's the miles per gallon after the conversion?

[@devingarrison5265]

Aaron Cross not much of an improvement

[@Tobias611]

same MPG for triple the HP and most likely more torque? You could probably swap for an engine with 150 hp and same torque numbers but better MPG, it's all about the configuration

[@AllThingsRamdom]

@@devingarrison5265 that's actually a pretty good improvement. When you get 8 to 10 on average with a stock configuration doing the conversion it's now at about double the fuel mileage and I would say that's a significant improvement. Not only are you getting nearly double the fuel mileage you're also getting about three times the power.

[@AsianNIGMA]

Devin garrison you get like a extra 100 miles out of a full tank

[@notsojoerogan]

Predator Inc who also does Duramax swaps with similar power figures claim they get 18mpg. I don't recall if it's city or highway though

[@pineappleshake3952]

You all should really think of a new name.

[@Itsaboutthewaterlife]

Agree: switch to plan b.

[@mattevans1643]

I would rather own any other vehicle in the world than a humvee. Been fixing them for years. Yeah, it's pretty simple, but how often shit breaks on them it's astonishing. Everything from water pumps, to mechanical fuel pumps, to fuel injector pumps... nope, fuck that shit, i'm done with them.
