Wes, Thank You for helping Elijah out!
I had the pleasure to meet him and his crew on the way to Port Arthur to help with Harvey. Karma has a way of working out......:clinto:
Check also if you have a plastic handle NAPA by balkamp as Kiddie made those for NAPA.
The list did not show NAPA or Balkamp ( their brand) but the kiddie model number on mine came up and in the corner of the label it does say made by kiddie
mine was a balkamp 770-7019 NAPA part number 2-1/2 ABC
I did not have a rivet nut tool at the time and my solution was to use rubber well nuts that fit in the hole and swell up when tightened by the 1/4 bolts. Home depot stocks them in the hardware aisle in the drawers. Unless you plan on whacking it with a huge tree limb, it will do just fine.

Driver's side antenna mount set up
On the rear driver's side I have one of the hmmwv offset antenna mounts (thanks 86humv) with a AS-3900 base. On the inside of the side fender is a 3 bolt fender reinforcement plate A3046222. I bought mine at Flight Source/Equipment parts sales. It can be right...
The decision was made for me as it was already dexron for my M923 from Ft. Polk. I have changed the pan filter once and the spins on yearly and had no issues. It also "feels" like it shifts better than other trucks I have been allowed to drive but that has many variables....
but I also rarely...
If you are towing with just a pintle/lunette double check the weight to your current bumper set up. The OE curved bumper was not very stout, then it was upgraded MWO with a straight bumper, then the air drop. I think that m200 sits too high to tow behind the hmmwv as the hitch is pretty low and...
A few years ago I picked up a hemtt transfer case in the can for min bid $25 at Ft. Polk. Sold it to one of the few hemtt owners at the time (before GL sales) in Colorado I think for a couple Hundred as no one was interested. Supply and demand plus timing.....
part number 12340142
These folks do sell direct but have a min order I think of $100. I ordered other goodies to get to the min.

Thanks for the tips. I did not think to check across the pond :-) My seat has a very small rip that the patch fixed but I was just curious what they will tell me. I think Greg has a care package coming my way with clips but if not I will follow up.
I found the seat manufacture ISRI Isringhausen Cage code 62226 in Mi and requested a price on the seat cover in green 929384-00 just for reference. I will post what I find out when they reply.

I triple yes the shock as that is exactly how my m101 was after I picked it up from red river and made a side trip to hot springs. It was not happy at all in the land of hills.
I would also suggest ordering the nylon bushings for the links as I found 2 bad ones when I disassembled.
You could go through the vin thread here and request info. Bumper numbers could be useful and sometimes the vehicle serial is in the inside fender footwells stenciled. Sometimes it can be an alpha numeric like n63t5632 etc
You might have to get the truck to first to "search" it and then...
At-1011 antenna on a tilt adapter with a Harris 100-5154-01 base
Took some time to piece together this antenna mount, base, mast, and accessories.
For now, It is mounted on my right rear but some of the hmmwv have this set up on the rear sides of the fender with 2 more antennas on the rear. It...
That would be the weight of all the components. 3 cages, 2 big brackets, 3 plates, and hardware . Not as much as I would have thought. Front cage I would have guessed around 30lbs.
Could you share info on bulb cost, part number, and supplier. I have a bunch of lights with bad bulbs and this looks like a great solution over those expensive dual element bulbs.
