    Behr paint tips and process

    Just shot this truck on Friday with 383 Green Behr Marquee Flat and need to do touch ups today. It's all in the prep work and taking your time.

    M35A3 - Opinions Wanted !

    IMHO they're kind of the black sheep of the deuce world since they were a stop gap truck. AM General had bigger plans for them but the Army cut back budgets enough to get by so short cuts were made. If you can get a clean truck with a fiberglass hood for a decent price then great! Welcome to the...

    Behr paint tips and process

    I've not had chipping but the adhesion is only as good as the CARC beneath it. Fiberglass should be spray and forget. You can even layer it up on glass and peel it off in a sheet instead of taping and scraping.

    Behr paint tips and process

    Having painted 45+ units with Behr here's my input. Behr Marquee Exterior Flat - don't cheap out, don't get anything other than flat if you're trying to keep it military Do not cut with water If you have major CARC chipping do a second coat. Follow Behr instructions for application, it's easy...

    PURCHASED HMMWV WITH NO MODEL YEAR ON DOCUMENTS - TEXAS

    Did you fill out the title form for GovPlanet when requesting your SF-97? That was your opportunity to make the correction. Past that you may need a 68A (vin verification by officer) to supplement your SF-97.

    Wanting to start a new HMMWV business. Need your help.

    This business model is commonplace already and the market is over saturated. A HMMWV priced for the common man is like $12K-$16K in as-is condition from Uncle Sam if it's road legal and safe. The $20k-$35K market is near top of the pyramid price wise without going all out for $60K+ market stuff...

    Potential for New Soft Doors HMMWV

    https://www.facebook.com/groups/967096063720957/ I like his doors but not so much his rear curtains. It's just my opinion though.

    Potential for New Soft Doors HMMWV

    Price would have to be on point. I can get milspec door skins with windows for $750/pair of 4 shipped to my door. I just have to reuse the existing frame. Each door takes about an hour to redo with the rivets if I'm watching TV while doing it.

    2023 TX MV Rally

    The odds of me attending are small this year. A wedding happening before it and I've got a role in it. We will see if I just come down for the day..

    Wheel Bounce

    Rotate the tire to the rear and drive again to see if the issue changes. If it remained in the front right look into you steering knuckle or wheel bearing.

    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Put some new shoes on this girl. It really makes the truck look not so anemic with the G177s.
