HMMWV High Maintenance Money Wasting Vehicle !!!! What part don't you understand

No offence but the city seems to have their priorities screwed up. If the look of the truck is scary then it might also be a deterrent to the bad guys. Funny you keep saying Texas is different then Cali. I'd think Texas of all places wouldn't give a hoot what the people think. They seem more...

Before I spent a penny I'd find out about registration in your state. Every state is different laws are changing all over the place . Are you handy with a wrench? Because you can save yourself a lot of money if you can do your own work.

Most of the material used in banks, gas stations , DMV's is plastic of some nature. ( its about 2" thick) You might be able to fit it into a X door window frame some how but the window would be fixed not able to slide down. Yes you could probably take some AR500 and skin a set of original X...

search and rescue different then using it as a raid vehicle. I believe that is what your original post said. if a department vehicle probably could qualify for surplus military stuff. not so easy with civilian owned . That and the liability issue if involved in an accident or other unforeseen...

A lot of us have made our own stuff but none of us have decided we trust it enough to sit behind it while somebody shoots at us. The aluminum armor normally fit the body parts around the door. Not going to help much if you don't have the armored doors. Is this your personal vehicle? What's the...

It's common. congratulations you just bought a High Maintenance Money Wasting Vehicle ( HMMWV for short). Get your self a set of TM's or check out the TM section . Start doing your maintenance procedures. If it's just a cracked boot you can replace it. if it's an 88 and that's an original boot...

Didn't the second generation X door have a skin on the outside hiding the X . I like how they don't show the door from the inside. Strange I think you can find real original X doors for less if you look hard enough.

Aren't you in Washington state?

Who made that door? They should be able to tell you. I'd guess some camper trailer place . Nice door crappy window. Does that one even open?

How in this day and age do you not own a drill motor. I'm thinking you need to give up your man card. You have three options . Go buy a drill motor, borrow a drill motor, go buy a smaller belt. I'm hoping if you choose either of the first two choices your not going to ask how to use the drill motor.

It's your truck. So it's up to you where you put it. To me I'd run the military hi back seats with the green or tan cordura. And I have a flat black truck. Those seats look like there going to get real hot and sticky to the touch on a warm sunny day. That and there is already minimal space to...

There is a whole lot of weirdness going on in that picture. If that's where it is currently mounted it's in the wrong place. If it's where you want to install it . wont it interfere with the rear door closing? Also will the belt be long enough ? It's kind of low isn't it?

It's a tinker toy . why not buy both sets of parts and switch them around every once and awhile.

That section already looks like it was repaired. See if 86humv has any floor pieces or maybe Retired War Horse or Ted Gates

Read the TM. There fixed it for you

You better spell out the meaning of TM for them.

You need to start learning how to wrench on it yourself.

Funny you link your details to a historical club when the modifications go against anything remotely historical to the year of the vehicle you installed it into. Most historical clubs try and keep the vehicles they represent as original as possible. Not sure how many HMMWV's came from the...

B.O.A.T = Break Out Another Thousand. You my friend have a project on your hands. I thought HMMWV's were bad. BH
