    Dome light measurements?

    Go check in the Ebay for "led rock lights" such as the ones below: They can handle 24 volts, are bright as ****, come in different colors other then white, and are small enough they can be mounted anywhere. Maybe two facing the windshield and two facing the rear wall mounted on the B pillar ?

    Interior storage ideas

    Shouldn't be all too involved. A buddy of mine is a master welder so I pretty much give him the idea and he can make it happen. I will make sure to post our progress as we go.

    Not as of yet as the truck is still in my friends shop getting buttoned up. I will post a full build log on here once its back in my possession. As far as the hood light goes its just mounted with the two provided brackets and some grade 8 hardware to the hood itself. Pretty sure due to...

    M998 Heater quit working

    The stock heaters in these trucks blow, I would say with your issue check fuses and work your way more into it. This is exactly why I am in proccess of running a secondary heater on the back wall of my M998.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Along with a bunch of other things (will post a complete build thread once I get the truck back from my buddies shop) I got my 1" LED light bar installed on my hood. Never been a fan of the big light bars mounted above the windshield so I thought this was a cool alternative. So now I have this...

    Making your own hard top!?

    I took a roof off a slantback and "modified" it to work on my 1988 M998 that came to me as a 4 man softop setup. Lots of little tweaks and cuts but now its a permanent part of the truck aka it aint coming off ! The back wall or "window" was a "iron curtain" from a online parts supplier that...
