Came here to agree with CAMO... disconnecting the battery of a running vehicle is not a test for anything. It can complicate a diagnosis by randomly frying something new.

I just held it flush with the top of the cab and scribed and cut to the line. Did all the bow cutting free hand eyeball because all the bows i used were bent ones. because of their compound shape and easily bent tubing you got to hand fit each one

Be advised...if you are planning on using the factory bow attaching hoops, you can expect a lot of hassle trying to slip the tubing through them. Leave them loose till the end. They are not a precision component, and they tend to be bent and out of round

Next door neighbor has a commercial sewing machine and tools. Layed it out on the driveway to mark out the strip that was removed. All the kids that had gathered to watch helped maneuver the the whole thing around as we ran it through the sewing table. Humvee rides to complete the project.

The tubing is 1" diameter OD I dont have a way to measure the bend radius or angle The straight part of the legs are approximately 29" and 34" respectively The height to the center apex is approximately 34" and 40" respectively My bows show signs of being bent and straightened enough that...

Everything I've seen has looked like it was more obstructive than less. The factory setup blocks damn near 50% of the potential opening. I fabbed this myself to represent my take on what looks perhaps more effective

Ive always removed the seats and insulation pads and vacuum what you can then hose out, then pressure wash top to bottom and underneath then purple power and a scrub brush on every square inch. Gets all the nooks and crannies and panel gaps. Makes it look new. If your paint is good and you want...

Unfortunately those are just about unsellable. Ive scrapped a few and have one I use as a ladder on occasion.

Yep...RFID "transponder" just like stores have. Mine was branded "Omni ID" Cracked it open and it seemed to be the same simple induction antenna setup that pings back an ID code when queried by a nearby transmitter unit or "portal". Main use seems to be tracking what gets loaded on ships etc...

The "squad carrier" in the first pic was actually the first humvee i was able to buy back in 1994.

Try and find a cover made by "Transhield" Its what the military uses to cover them for transport sometimes. They are fitted to the truck's configuration. Mine came with one for the 2 man MAK configuration.

Yes... A2 brushguard mount and early shackle mount

Four different trucks in 2020. 5 months, 5 months, 8 months, 8 months, ... Just for the EUCs! Including the SF97s... 14 months, 11 months, 11 months, 11 months Never again.

From my observation, they seem to use whatever tan was on hand. I touch them up with the CARC substitute tan

The filters with an anti-drainback valve are recommended. Not only for the sideways mounting, but I believe also to help keep the large volume of oil in the high mounted oil cooler. Reduces the delay in getting pressurized oil to the bearings on startup by not having to fill up these empty...

Agreed. A couple 1/4-20 holes aren't gonna hurt that bumper. Thats how i install all my plate brackets.

I read somewhere that the early four mans had only the drivers side insulation pad because the exhaust was on that side and would blister your leg otherwise. The passenger rear insulation pads seem to have shown up on the models that incorporated the built in A/C systems. M1165s come to mind...
