Anyone install the front high back seats kit in their HMMWV that can give me some pointers? Anyone do video instructions? I’m starting the process today and the instructions that came with it are no good. And I’m 6’5” so need all the legroom I can get.

Did you find a part number?

Took the GMV out for a commercial shoot.

Getting ready for the MV Show and Parade!

Yep. It stopped 90% of the water from coming in... even in a rainstorm. There are small gaps & creases that allow water in, but would be too much of a hassle to try and seal. This was a successful "axe approach" to weatherproofing!

I've been waiting for one of those Special Forces Toolboxes to install in the bed of my HMMWV, but am thinking they're long gone. Wondering if one of these would suffice... (CARC'ed of course). What do you guys think?

The kit covered all four doors well.

I'm the one who posted it and they're still working well! Much appreciated in the Utah winter...

Yeah, call these guys. Steve will take care of you.

To *help* prep for the wet weather, I got a FRAG #5 Armor Seal Kit to use as weatherstripping for my doors. Worked great!

A lot of wisdom being spoken here. And I can vouch for 86hmmwv and Retiredwarhorses - great guys to deal with. I couldn't have built this without them.

If you haven't done it yet, I'd put a fresh set of glow plugs in. That'll do wonders for starting the engine on a cold winter morning.

Barstow/Yermo MCLB is a Logistics base strategically located with tons of equipment ready to deploy by rail, so most of it will never be for sale. Picked up there last year and scheduled a base tour and it blew my mind to see all that heavy equipment ready to deploy. Truly amazing. The...

Possibly, but if the price is right it's good to stay mil spec.

Yes, just no weatherstripping around the doors.

I'm hoping that if it is soft enough, and compresses well, it'll at least close the air gaps.

I am not trying to stay dry.... just a little quieter.

I had to cut off the old beat-up weatherstripping on my hard doors and am looking for alternatives. The OEM seal wasn't thick enough to form a good seal around all the corners. Has anyone found a good aftermarket alternative? Seems like a 1" wide, thick seal with heavy-duty doublestick tape...
