    "Tubular" key

    That's why I said I keep nothing in it. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    "Tubular" key

    It's funny, cause I have a soft top, and there is a Brinks padlock and chain for the steering wheel. I've been content to keep nothing in it. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Interior lights and usb chargers

    I mounted a 12v fuse box in the passenger rear seat well with a 100amp disconnect and ran all my accessories through that. Reverse lights, chargers, interior lights, radio, etc. Now, I feel like I worked a lot harder and spent a lot more money than necessary. I've got 1200 watts if I ever need...

    How many amps could you get away with pulling off that terminal? Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Questions on the M998 Hmmwv Humvee

    Speaking of wiper blades, I lost an arm on the passenger side and I bought 2 replacements. For the life of me, I can't get the other one off or get the lost one on. What is the deal with those? Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    Leaking soft top

    I have a M998 with a 4 man soft top that is newer. Just like any convertible soft tops are leaky. I had the same problem on my 85 CJ7. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

    M718A1 Project

    I'm lucky enough that mine isn't rusted, but I get why you're taking the time now. With surface rust you'll have a time getting anything to adhere. Sent from my SM-N986U1 using Tapatalk

    M718A1 Project

    So, I've been wondering if the CARC paint stripping process is necessary. Unless you're going for a Concours Restoration and you plan to recreate the factory original pattern I can't imagine that removing the CARC paint would be a good use of time. If it's chemical resistant, so well adhered...

    Windshield wiper pivot not matching Training Manual

    I looked that part up. Are you saying I need to replace the actual pivot in the windshield frame? Sent from my SM-N986U1 using Tapatalk

    Windshield wiper pivot not matching Training Manual

    One of my wiper arms fell off (passenger side). I bought 2 planning to replace them both but this isn't matching up with the manual or the part I received. Am I missing something? Sent from my SM-N986U1 using Tapatalk

    Tires other than Military MTRs

    I've had my M998 for about 2 years now and it's been the best second vehicle I've ever had. Truck bed when needed, great for camping. One of my tires runs down to 5 psi in a week and it does scare me from time to time. I dont want to replace the wheels and I dont want to spend a fortune on...

    200 AMP Dual Voltage Alternator Help

    This one is $1,980! This is just a 6o amp and they want over $600. If you have a line on another $250 200Amp alternator, even if it needs to be rebuilt, please let me know. A buddy of mine runs a shop with his dad where all they do is rebuild alternators and starters. I'd gladly pay $250...

    200 AMP Dual Voltage Alternator Help

    I think you guys just saved me a $900 on a 200 amp alternator, $50 on an installation kit, and probably a few Glow Plug Controllers/PCBs at $500 each. I think I'll just go back to my original idea and install a charging relay to keep the starters for starting and the deep cycles for house...

    200 AMP Dual Voltage Alternator Help

    Have you had good results with this setup? Are both banks of batteries getting charged enough for what they're needed for? I was thinking about just putting in 2 deep cycle 12v and installing a Blue Sea ACR with disconnect switch for all my accessories. It was my understanding that the 12V...

    When do you think OshKosh LATVs will be available?

    My son is 3, and he has at least 34 years before he finds himself in my scenario. I was not trying to pontificate about what might be. I just figured my son would have a chance to do what I didn't in 34 years. Much like my father. Sent from my SM-N960U1 using Tapatalk

    When do you think OshKosh LATVs will be available?

    My first 4x4 was a CJ7. Not exactly Military Spec, but it had roots. Now I have an M998 after watching them come to popularity because of the middle east conflicts. My dad is a Vietnam vet and he doesn't know anything about the HMMWV because he was long gone before it was put in service...

    Does anyone have a sherwin Williams carc paint color selection image?

    I have a buddy who was a manager at the Sherwin Williams specialty coatings store in Richmond, and I used to buy a lot of high build epoxy for concrete. H could probably get what you needed. He does his own thing as an installer now, so he's got a commercial account. Could probably have it...
