    Hard vs soft......doors

    I went from soft doors to hard doors. I didn't gain anything from the hard doors except for cool factor, which was worth it 😎

    Keeping the Humvee Running Cool

    I would not mess with your truck unless its overheating. In which case, I would fix whatever is broken, rather than implement some sort of aftermarket mod. Just my opinion.

    Youtube video with some good Yermo footage

    Meh, I'm happy to see young americans doing fun stuff without breaking any laws, swearing, or being confused about their gender. We need more people doing stuff like this. If you watch their other videos they all (except for maybe the camera guy) take part in all kinds of custom fabrication...

    Keyed Switch

    Someone designed a mechanical keyed switch which adapts to the existing starter switch. Its supposed to retain the reliability of the OEM switch while still utilizing a key. Unfortunately I can't seem to find a link, but I remember seeing it on a Facebook group. Otherwise, just go with a hidden...

    OUT AND ABOUT WITH MY HMMWV

    Got about 1000 pounds of play sand and mulch, amazing how the ECV springs work when there is actually some weight on them!

    Seat belts

    The regular 3 point type seatbelts are availalble at MAC motors for cheap. Whatever you buy, dont get aftermarket chinese crap.

    Universal X door/Soft Door Stryker

    Maybe I'm missing something, but why would you want to regularly switch between hard doors and soft doors?

    Gunner seat belt removal

    You want to remove the whole plate, although if I remember correctly there *might* be one allen head screw underneath the seatbelt retractor. -Use lots of penetrating oil -Use a quality allen bit on a rachet wrench for more leverage -Clean the head of the allen screws to ensure that your allen...

    CO Insuring HMMWV NEWER than 20 years

    Its on a classic vehicle plan, no restrictions other than total annual mileage which i think is around 5000 but is not checked or verified in any way.

    options for unarmored body holes

    This reinforces my decision to just use hex bolts 🤣

    options for unarmored body holes

    I used 1/2" hex bolts and washers for the through holes, and 3/8" bolts for the hinge holes. Use quality grade 8 fasteners and antiseize for anything that goes in a threaded hole in case you ever want to be able to remove it.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    More progress on the 50. Got the grips installed, charging handle installed, and a fresh coat of paint. Next step is to make a reproduction barrel. Right now I have a real barrel which probably weighs 40 pounds. It makes me nervous driving around with that heavy barrel supported by 3D printing...

    Can you please tell us which vendor gave you 10mm glow plugs so that we can avoid them?

    What is the max amperage consumption on ECV with lights and A/C on?

    After posting that I was thinking the same thing, thanks for clarifying.
