    Mounted the bumper and my new tag. Going to add another hitch/step/tube thing to my other bumper. Nothing wrong with this one, just think aesthetically I can make some better looking welds. took it for its first drive around the neighborhood today, pretty cool!

    Yup, you bought a battery box for your Kaiser from me. Love those trucks. Still gotta finish mine.

    Finished the bumper, came out OK. For a rookie I’m ok with it, but feel like I could do it better. I’m going to do it again when I get my truck back from the muffler shop. So I’ve got this bumper for sale if anyone is interested. I’m in Charleston SC.

    Hoping to wrap this up when I get home later in the week. Hard to get a long run in without the breaker tripping. Ordered some 1/4 plate to fill the circle.

    Light switch is coming out perfect! Started working on some bumper modifications. For the money these airlift bumpers are quite the deal, scooped this one up for $100. I think the pintle hitches are cool, but swapping to a 2” receiver makes more sense, plus having a little rear step will be...

    Trying to simplify the lighting, Power Distribution Solutions makes a really nice light kit that's universal. I've reach out them about creating a way to mount their switch in the dash. This would give a lot of people options, not just Humvee owners, would probably use it in my M715 as well...

    First ride was a success!! Sounds great, very smooth! I removed the transmission bypass valve, mounted the 3.5 Holley screen, cleaned up the battery compartment a bit (still have more to do here), added a fuel pressure transducer, and got it titled and registered in SC. Could have had it...

    Glad I did this… aside from not really fitting properly the 5” rubber hose had actually begun to fall apart. Also, The body lift kinda puts the spout at a weird angle and it just made sense to get a longer hose and cut the filler neck down. The new 12” flexible hose has a steel spring lined core...

    So close! I was secretly hoping to have this running before I got my title from GovPlanet. It’s supposed to arrive tomorrow. Got a few setbacks so I will most likely be next weekend before I hear it run. Battery mount should be here tomorrow so I can wrap that up. Also going to get a 12”...

    Figuring out how and where to mount the fuel filter/regulator was a little challenging. On the M998 that was here there were not any hard mounted trans lines on the frame rail so it was easy to mount one there, not the case with the m1123. Made this overkill mount and got it where I wanted it...
