    alodine bare aluminum

    Anyone out there with experience using alodine to prep their bare aluminum? I used alodine on some bare aluminum plate pieces I cut to reinforce my rear late style seat bases. Cleaned bare aluminum with water, then alcohol, then soaked in alodine for 10 minutes, then rinsed with water and...

    body panel glue removal

    Anyone know what will remove the hard glue residue that's seals things up between the body panels? I removed my rear seat bases and want to clean things up before painting the areas that are bare aluminum now.

    Removing rear shims to get the tires to ride vertical? Good idea?

    My 2 man had the tires slanted out as well. With a load of 4 tires with rims they were pretty much straight up and down again again. Maybe that'll give you an idea of how much weight you need. That was with no airlift bumper or rhino carrier.

    late style rear seats

    Does anyone know if these have reinforcement plates underneath the truck or are they simply riveted to the floor and that's it?

    Source for under hood jack storage

    I wonder if there are really two different model types or are some of the covers that are for sale out there just factory rejects that bolted the clasps on the wrong position?

    Thinking about upgrading my HMMWV half-shafts

    I think it has something to do with balancing out the whole engine. Isn't it slightly angled on the frame?

    Bogert jack, storage location??

    Yup, way too big. I just figured these trucks have either a mount or footman loop setup for everything that ever went into the hmmwv along with a nice labeled sticker or two but there doesn't seem to be anything specific for this jack(just the bag). Strange since you really don't want 80lbs...

    Bogert jack, storage location??

    I wonder if the bogert company ever made anything to bolt this down for storage. I checked out their video but I'd didn't see anything where they actually removed it from the truck.

    I did get one. Seems like a nice stable jack.

    I have the Airlift bumper and brackets, but no nuts and bolts. Need sizes...

    I lifted the bumper and rhino lift myself. Just lift one end up(with opposite end still on the ground),secure one bolt, then lift the other end, secure a second bolt. Then do the rest of the bolts. It wasn't too bad.

    highback driver seat install

    Here's a few. Not complete though. Removed old seat and base. Secured base plates to new seat. Positioned seat in truck. Drilled a couple holes in each plate to get proper position. Removed seat. Now I can secure plates with the first couple holes I drilled. Then drill remaining holes...

    highback driver seat install

    Searching through old posts it looks like sikaflex 221 is the panel sealer. Now I just need a carc compatible primer that is readily available.

    highback driver seat install

    When installing pieces like this where it calls for caulking panels and putting primer down over exposed aluminum, what will work? Is there a primer that works fine with carc that is compatible. If possible I'd like to get some primer in aerosol can so I can quickly spray down and then it'll...

    I think I posted a list here somewhere but you'd have to search my posts. Someone else asked same question about a year ago.
