    Soften M1123 suspension

    Do you have a part number for the 16" 4x4? You recommend not using 2x4 spring for front. Does that still apply for 4x4 spring

    Spring replacement, leveling springs

    Thank you for the insight. Looking back at the 3 links in first post. In the spring link there is a 14" 954# spring that is used on a truck with a winch. Oddy enough there is a 13.3" 1250# listed for all other vehicles.

    Spring replacement, leveling springs

    I was going off the difference between Midwest Military spring height and advertised stock spring height. I do agree with your statement. Actually I guess I should ask the question: Will a 13.5" 954# spring and a 1/2 spacer provide similar lift as a 13.9" 750# spring? Also given the same...

    Rear Seat Cushion Recommendations?

    I added high back seats from Midwest military. They do not fold. They mount to seat base and do not use the back plate. When I use the bed I remove the seats and put in the plates. Best of both worlds.

    Buying price

    Get what you can afford that has good bones. The truck costs mentioned are accurate. I have had hmmwv about 1 year. I truly believe so far I have spent more time working on it than have driven it. It is getting into the nice category and I'm in the same ballpark with money spent. Cliff notes...
