    M998 Bumper paint suggestions

    Rustoleum matte black (satin black). Very durable and easy touch ups. If you have the Air Lift bumper will need a good etching primer and metal prep to get the paint to stick properly. Recurring problem for me but as I said easy touch ups. Mark

    NY Humvee Insurance in NY

    I found Hagerty had the best deal and have had them for a year. Stay away with anything to do with Geico. Last year they attempted to double my premium for nothing on my part. My cars are now with Progressive. Mark

    4 man Soft Top suppliers

    One thing I have is a nos 4 man green artic top and rear curtain with the two oval plexiglass potholes. I paid very little for them years ago and am amazed at what they are going for now and have become unicorns. Mark

    6.5NA HMMWV 3L80 to 4L80e

    I run 62 mph on the highway with my three speed and that's fine with me. I'm sure not in that much of a hurry anymore to need more speed. If mine gives up the ghost I would definitely go with a built 700R4 and won't have to deal with electronics. I've had a number of vechicles with the 700R4s...

    4 man Soft Top suppliers

    I should have purchased a spare green one from Benton before the shuttered. They were selling them for $350.00. Dumb move on my part. Mark

    Hawker Batteries

    IMHO selling them locally due to the crazy cost of shipping the most I would ask for is between $200 - $250 per and see if they move and if not readjust the price. They are great batteries and my last set of Hawkers lasted 10 years. You are still selling used batteries so you have to be...

    Fiberglass X Doors

    I have the oem X-Doors and the hinge mounts allow with a bit of work to align them properly while not perfect they are sure respectable. I'm thinking about putting some bed liner in the inside of the doors to help with the noise. Mark

    Fiberglass X Doors

    Why in the world are they not pre drilled? For the money they are charging they should be ready to install and ready for paint. Mark

    Hmmwv proportioning valve question

    You could install a remote stand alone proportioning valve to the rear brakes with an adjustable knob and makes everything very easy. Have done this on equipment over the years. Mark

    Opinions on MEP-831A

    He's a ham as I am. He has two setups. One for the cabin and one for his Pinzgauer 712M.

    Opinions on MEP-831A

    They are nice units but heavy as hell to move. Three of us all over 60 had fun carrying it to my buddies cabin/shed/hamshack. He has a crazy exhaust venting system that allows zero genset exhaust into the shed. He has the Genset as a backup for the shed and house and well pump. Mark

    Getting LMTV from Hawaii

    The POR15 is a hell of a product. Lasts forever.

    Getting LMTV from Hawaii

    But what a great place it's just so damn expensive to live there. Mark

    Getting LMTV from Hawaii

    Rust is a real problem on the islands. Hope you looked at a large amounts of pics as to the condition of the equipment. Just my .02 cents. Mark
