    "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...
