No idea how you can fit into this thing without seat modifications. I also reinforced the structure if the pillar.

What wheels are those, and what size tires? I'm also looking at the springs (12k version) and shocks from Military Truck Works. Super interested to hear your feedback.

Those are early h1 wheels. Tire selection stinks. I should have went 17" I hate the fender poke most of them have. Looks stupid with rim hanging over the fender.

Will be installing springs and shocks next week. Taking a small break the daily is going to use that lq9 and I am looking for a rusted our LBZ truck. Need a donor to build.

Back to humvee. Hummer h2 waiting on dyno appointment.

Testing out monstaliner. I tried rolling it. Plan on using this on floor and seat bases. Having snap in carpet made like a boat for the center and rest of truck. Great for hiding wired and soundproofing.

H2 is up and running. Time to tear back into the Humvee

How did you reinforce the pillar?

 

[EVANSWASTEOFMONEY]

I made a support plate. Completely unnecessary. I would just chop it and forget it. no way that support is needed.

That bar behind the seat is for things like shelters to land on and for the 2 door "pickup" fill plates to attach to, the civy models do not have it

curious to see what that looks like. I've thought about modifying mine so that instead of it being kinda square its more rectangle, so it would still be there for the 2 door fill plates, but also angled so that the front seats could recline....

Springs are in. Shock arrived right after we finished springs. Going to get shocks in tomorrow. Round two on suspension. I haven't had any time for a test ride yet. Front is higher and truck looks better. temporary image hosting
Still have to clean this thing. Waiting to finish overlanding trip first. Got a little more recovery gear. .

1ST major outing
Everything perfect except lost wheel weights in the mud( ride home sucked) and pinstriped all the paint and windows from thick brush. Definitely want a liner paint job now.

Drove for an hour and a half into New Hampshire for an overlanding guided tour,

1= impressed it takes a long time to reach highway speed but it was able to keep up with highway traffic 70-75 for the round trip. share images free
2= The Hummer during the tour

3=I will upload more picks later. Hands were busy during the rough sections.

4=I am glad the water crossings were not over the soft doors. Water did come right in thru the floor

5=Always be humble. This guy has a set up that absolutely killed it in every way. He was better than everyone.
