Place a weebasto and never need glowplugs.

Doors needed handles. Modified and work GREAT. Gonna rethink my window attachments BUT nice to have an enclosed vehicle.

My concern is NOT blowing out plugs. My concern is swelling. 12V seem to do it less, IMHO Also easier to find 12V at NAPA last minute, for when I forget to call the awesome people at Kascar, HPG, etc….

Sometime in the next couple of weeks, I will be posting a PCB hack with revised schematic that will allow you to use 12 V glow plugs which do not swell while maintaining 24 V power to the rest of the vehicle. Essentially, you run a 12 V wire from the battery to the box and cut a hole in the...

The frames on these cars frequently do not ground. what I did for my LEDs is I wired them into my highbeam both power and ground. I can’t envision a time when I would use the LED without the highbeam off-road. I have a switch that will keep the LEDs from coming on during routine driving on the...

Just a note about the rear door strikers… There are three screws. The lower two have a loosely applied connected backing plate. The upper screw has a free spinning rear bolt. When placing a wire striker, DO NOT remove both striker screws at once. You will lose the back hardware plate and you...

Windows cut and placed. Super clear so only the reflection gives them away. Rain stains, dirt, and pin-striping from the trails will fix that. Door strikers and handles placed. Windows are removable. Gaskets later today. Who was it who said I don’t know how to fabricate??? 🙄🙄🙄 Seems like he...

Awesome. Well done. I’d like to see many more members post home made units.

Thanks Steve… It was definitely an option. Rivets have central holes… that leak. I considered rivets but decided this was faster and easier and would easily complete the task during the 1/2 hour silicone workable time. Using rivets means things can shift during drilling, and I don’t have...

might grind out but more than likely will be covered in two layers of KillMat.

Back in Cali. Turret hole covers cost $350-400 shipped. 🤦‍♂️ Eric and I just took 4’x4’ 18 ga cold rolled steel, painted it, and locked her down with silicone and self tapping screws. Positioned on roof and taped off. Rounded corners. Painted with self etching primer, (only came in grey)...

Nothing to see here. Move along

Obviously you have never taken a shower under a turret during rainfall.

RWH has posted elsewhere a couple of months ago that in all his years he has never balanced HMMWV tires.

Diesel runaway is a serious consideration. Did you bypass EGR? Bad EGR? Oil entering intake air will combust like injected Diesel fuel. It is called a “runaway engine”. You best ensure this is not occurring. It will blow up your engine and turning the ignition off will do nothing.

My $0.02 This belongs in the Mess Hall or Conversations or Munitions I hate seeing senseless wanton destruction of HMMWV’s.

I swear by this system. No affiliation. Many options. Mechanically activates towed vehicle brakes. https://nsarvproducts.com/?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAACuEVQ9Ti_m8gjGiob3wnewdgW3F7&gclid=Cj0KCQjw4Oe4BhCcARIsADQ0cskyn5i-rKMShkcHp4h3SpSwnHqudLxfXS-Il8lo5S1KCx6T9qQf1-YaAq0ZEALw_wcB...

Looks, errrr, toasted?

The answer he is looking for is an at-a-boy saying what he is doing is OK and such. The answer he is looking for is will he be swaying (unsafe). The answers he got is “NOT SAFE”. No matter how a phrases it, his answers were “NOT SAFE”. Look at Patracy. He pulled a unit with just a bar, and...
