Need Help with Rear Divider Armor Plate

Hi gents,

So, I’m installing a Red Dot A/C system and new heater in my M998 4 man soft top. I need to find the 3 piece armor plate which was an add on armor for the M998. The Red Dot system needs this to mount correctly. What I want to do is use it to CAD and make my own 3 piece aluminum set to use in my truck.

Does anyone have these parts and hardware that I could purchase or borrow to make my own?

Cheers

There are many ways to mount the ac unit(s). I have seen brackets that bring the condenser unit over the top, a member (? Infidel got me? ) here cut troop seat uprights short and mounted the condenser unit on on them sideways so the soft cargo top could still be used?

I have also seen the evap fan unit bolted to the tunnel, Plywood curtain, etc.

No clue who this guy is but I saw this listed close to me. Looks like he made his solution. Maybe contact him for more info?

Only thing I see with this set up is the loss of visibility which was already pretty poor using the stock mirrors.

The armor pieces are on epay and g503 but I think they require more brackets and gizmos than you think. I did upload the manual here:
