What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

[blutow]

Trucklite led headlights. Maybe the best 5 minute upgrade possibly. Visibility is so much better compared to the originals. All the lenses on my other lights are pretty sun damaged. I might just replace the lenses if I can find them, but I'm debating going full LED.

Where did you get your truck lights from?
You can wetsand your lens with 3,000 and polish them to look like new.

I got them from Mac Motors. They were running a special on them for $159, had to wait a while on backorder

I was going to try polishing the lenses, but some of them look like there are micro-cracks that run pretty deep

It doesn’t last. Harbor freight lens kit has everything in it for like 10$

Did you get your sf97 or can you get that temp plate with just the invoice? I just assumed mine can’t be on the road until I have it titled, but i have not really looked into it.

I got a temp liscense from Arizona for 90 days. Was 200. But very well worth it. I've put 100 miles on my humvee. It was from dirt Legal with just a bill of sale.

Finishing up my license bracket holder with light for airlift bumper. I wasn't about to pay $89 for a kit. Good excuse to break out the plasma cutter.

Nice. I have to work on mine as well.

You can make your own harness, very simple! Just use the lead for your corner light 469a I think it was. Buy the Packard military connectors and just interrupt the feed to light.

Installed grab handles for each of the four seat positionsView attachment 862600View attachment 862600

Where did you get those? They are nice.

 

[OBX]

Google “E-5 Surplus” you will find a link to his eBay site to buy the grab handles and other MV items.

Interesting. I still want to check all my spindles before driving on the open road, but that's a good option. I guess it's a license plate, but not titled yet and isn't useful for titling in your state? You will still use the SF97 to get title in your state? I like to think I'll have my SF97 in the next few weeks, but who knows.

Also, I have held off getting insurance until it's on the road and titled, wasn't sure if it would be a pain to insure until I had a vin and title.
