Civilian H1 hood to military 998 hood

[dcartledge]

What steps would one take to convert a civ H1 hood to a 998 hood?

Is it simply to install the appropriate b/o drive light and bridge plate? Or are ther other more subtle differences that should be remedied?

Thanks for info,

I'm no expert so don't take my word as the finial say, but it is my understanding that booth the military vehilce and the civilian one used the same body parts to a point. Doors and back tops being different, but the body, hood windshield where all the same. Therefore I would think add composite lights, b/o drive and bridge plate. Cammo or OD it and you should be good to go.

Headlight buckets on early H1s used same buckets with connectors. A pigtail then converted to 3 pin spade on the light itself. Military uses a round canon waterproof 7 pin(?) plug. Civilian uses GM metricpack connectors. Clearance lights use a separate ground, and powerfeed. H1's use the two pin trailer pigtail.
