    New guy with a slant back question

    You need to be one of two types of people in order to buy and keep a HMMWV. #1 you like working on your own vehicles and doing your own maintenance. #2 you have a big bank account and spending money on your toys isn't a problem for you or your wife. You mentioned long adventure trips . Not sure...

    1919 pintle fitment problem MK64

    I doubt he can send it back after he took a grinder to it. With that said if the latch on the bottom locks into the pintle now it isn't going to fall out. I probably wouldn't want to fire a live M2 out of it but for just display purposes and driving around unless your off-roading in it I doubt...

    1919 pintle fitment problem MK64

    You don't really need the travel lock your using you need the yoke part of the UPA more then anything. Once the Yoke is attached to the UPA and the T&E mech. is on, the travel lock your using is useless.

    1919 pintle fitment problem MK64

    I have plenty of OEM pintles. They have 2 groves. So they will work with both the M2 and M3 tripods and related mounts.

    6.5T 4l80E swap harness question

    Good luck finding a body wiring harness. You may want to check MAC motors but I'd see how much you can get for one of your kidneys first then I'd try and search for the thread that was started about making a body harness. I'm not sure where your planning on getting the 6.5 T motor but It should...

    998 side mount machine gun mount

    I hear that . I spent a lot of time finding parts over the last 15 years since I got mine. Wife said you get one. Didn't say I couldn't keep changing what it looked like. You know they made a rear weapons mount for the turret back in the day. bolted up to the bearing at about the 7-8 o-clock...

    998 side mount machine gun mount

    I guess I was basically asking what you thought it would cost to make a swing arm.

    998 side mount machine gun mount

    Legal issues driving on street with turret cupola

    It's called a cupola. not a chicken coop. Try to use the proper name for it.

    I would have told them no. Why would I? I don't have chickens.

    Legal issues driving on street with turret cupola

    I never had any problems . I used to do a lot of promotional events for a big airsoft company located out in Ca. I was always proactive and would drop by the local sheriffs department or police department a few days before hand with a few pictures of the truck and my name # and address and the...

    New to me m998 what year is it

    Did you buy it without looking at it first in person? The fact it has 2 titles seems a bit odd to me. How did you pay for it? Cash? Check? Who got the money.

    New to me m998 what year is it

    Since when can police departments sell HMMWV's ? I thought they had to turn them back in to the Gov. when they no longer had a use for them. Perhaps it depends on how they acquired it but I'd want to ask that question.

    998 side mount machine gun mount

    it's mostly pin sizes and spacing between the front and rear pin . Also the width of the sleeves on the guns the pins go through. I made mounts and modified some first gen swing arms to fit my airsoft 240's and 249's years ago before the MSG cradle's started coming out. The hard part was making...
