    M101A2 Spare Tire Mount/Carrier

    I simply have mine standing upright in the back facing the side inbetween the wheel well and back with a ratchet strap to the side and through the tire. Takes up minimal space. Others have used tire winch mounts from pick ups or suv's and made a frame underneath to hold it under the bed and...

    AN/TPQ-36 FireFinder (Modified M116A1) Trailer

    I had uploaded it in 2014 :-) Frank was pointing to the post. It is a large 18mb file. Files that large can chock depending on your ISP.

    Shifter Box Rivet Nut Installation Help

    Do you wire it via a manual switch or another way? I know in my state and others to pass inspection, it has to come on when in "reverse"

    HMMWV M998 presentation across the Atlantic.

    That is the newer style of turn signal switch that can be used with the newer black bigger steering wheel that has a cancel ring underneath to turn blinker off automatically after turn is complete. I think you still have the old style wheel. The newer one is worth the upgrade if you can find it...

    Many Scrapyard and tow truck drivers are a different breed of humanity.....that give them all a black eye. Cool find.

    Lets Talk M1101

    They sit real high in my mind, wider than most tow vehicles, and unless you need hmmwv wheels/tires, another level of complexity. My personal preference would be the m116a2 chassis series of gen set trailers or an m101a2 if you want the traditional "box" bed. Easy peazy rim and tires widely...

    Rod Hall suspension

    Ebay has for sale from a fellow member here these brackets and I believe the sway bar is different for the rod hall set up https://www.ebay.com/itm/2EA-SWAY-BAR-BRACKETS-ROD-HALL-HUMMER-HUMVEE-HMMWV-M998-CP3B5R/110662941243?epid=1350668587&hash=item19c4067a3b:g:fOIAAMXQgb1RTJtT

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Just a note of caution that they do not fit a truck with no armour. They will need to be modified and stick out much further out from fender. I do have a correct used one in New Orleans but will not ship if anyone is visiting the big easy.
