Gents, I'm fishing for an idea.... One of my non-military rides is a new Jeep Rubicon 392.... I'm looking to take an extended trip out to Montana and Wyoming in it this summer. I've been looking at either a rugged off-road camper or a simple cargo trailer. A cargo trailer would simply let us...

So... I stripped outage interior of my cab to do some sound reduction and remodeling. I removed the factory seats and seat belts. I swapped in new seats. I bought new seat belt assemblies. I, for the life of me, cannot figure out where the end of the belt goes. There are four bolting points...

So... I made a huge boo boo. I was trying to clean up my CTIS controller. A fresh coat of paint, and a new keypad. When peeling off the old keypad, the entire printed circuit tore off..... Has anyone experimented with swapping the keypad circuit? Anyone have a dead unit they might part with...

I'm working to resolve my leak prone turret hole before winter. Found this in the inter webs a while back: https://builtmfg.com/2016/11/14/moonroof/ I like the idea of letting the sky in a bit, but... It'd be nice to be able to pop it open on demand without climbing on top with an impact...

So, I've been on a journey to get my winch and a/C installed. Made a big move yesterday and got the options panel and the interior A/C unit installed. Not too much in the way of difficulties, but my options panel is not working. (All is well with the A/C unit) The options panel has two sets of...

So... I'm playing with an idea to remotely control pretty much any switch in my LMTV with my phone, using some tech hardware I bought to "home automate" my RV. More on that later if it works. In the mean time. One of the first functions I want to sort out is turning on the master power, and...

I've had the cab tilted up for a few days trying to figure out how to get this PTO installed for the winch setup, and I noticed that one of the cable sections on my step/ladder/whatever to get into the cab is starting to show some broken cable strands. Which got me thinking about replacement...

So. I've been slowly working to get my winch installed. This week I've been chipping away at the front roller assembly. I already had the bumper off to pound out a kink from an errant stump, so removing the handful of bolts from the old cab mount was pretty easy. A 30mm socket removed the...

For my admittedly small sample size I've had a third of my auctions cancelled after I won. All which I would consider a screaming good deal. One was actually canceled after I paid for it. And one that was simply relisted the next day. When I inquired about it, GP just suggested I bid on the...

Well. I managed to do it... and I broke my 40k bubba rope trying to pull stumps with my LMTV. It went off like a gunshot. I think I can re-splice a loop on the end and only lose a few feet of overall length. But... I'm now looking for something similar that does not stretch. Does anyone make...

I'm considering removing the windshield from my LMTV in order to make installing the A/C unit (and making some cab improvements easier. In planning to install the interior A/C unit, I figure there will be many, many trips in and out of the cab as well as many cycles of raising and lowering the...

So, I'm beginning work on mounting my winch, wondering how to deal with the Huck bolts, when I come across this tool: Huck collar cutter It looks like the thing is just a glorified nut splitter for several thousand dollars. I'm wondering if. Could cut the collars with one of these much less...

I have some broken/missing retainer cables on my LMTV. You know those cables that keep the various pins from getting lost. Making new ones should be an easy task, but finding a source for the cable, crimps and swag tools is harder than I thought, It seems all my searches get muddled up with...

I won a GP auction for a 14 foot mobile workshop container located in Lake Butler, Florida. I need it picked up and delivered to east central Indiana. I have unloading facilities available in either Portland or Elwood, Indiana where someone can forklift or crane the thing off a trailer and onto...

I'm looking add a 2 inch receiver hitch. I've found prices from $299 to $599. WTH? I don't suppose anyone on here is making a few at an actual reasonable cost?

What is this module just above my fuel filter and pump? It has some wires, and a cable connecting to the throttle linkage. It looks to me a lot like the cruise module for a 3126 or C7... but I have an A0. What is it?

So.... I'm considering swapping my A0 defroster duct for one of the clear ones from an A1. I found some parts online, on FleaBay and elsewhere but, I'm a bit baffled. It seems what I found is very short. Are the A1 defroster ducts 2 parts? if so are they the same right and left? Anything else...

I'm adding a complete winch setup to my m1078. The winch control box comes with a bunch of blank switch hole, but has wiring connections for each unused switch position. My question is this: If I add switches to fill those blanks where do the outputs go? They are all pre-wired, so the output...

So. I'm on the hunt for a shelter to drop on my m1078. the folks at Eastern are fresh out of the NOS s-280 that I think I want. But.... they do have a m109 insulated van body (see pic). Now, the shelter boxes have dedicated tie down points/system. I see this van body has a ring of some sort on...

It seems maybe my ether start system in inop. I left the block heater unplugged to test if the ether was working. Seems that's a "no". I replaced the can with a new one from NAPA. I understand the ether won't activate until it's cold, but how cold? It's in the mid teens today, and man it did...
