    Is radio tray steel or aluminum?

    I can't find a decent source for the radio tray. I'm not getting MIL radio anyway and was going to use the tray to keep CB, chargers, drink holders, tissues, and other crap on it anyway. I can fab one based on pictures I've seen. With that said, are the OEM ones aluminum or steel? What about...

    Bogert jack, storage location??

    Did you already get one? I looked at those and decided that a hi-lift was much more versatile.

    the real cost of owning a HMMWV

    I got mine for $11,100. It runs. Between 60A-->200A upgrade, doors that need replacement, headlights, rear bumper and tire carrier, tires, winch, paperwork, etc. -- I'm pushing $20k. Start thinking about upgrading seats, dome lights, lightbars, etc.; you see where I'm going with this?

    I'm still looking for 2 soft doors in like new condition because both front windows are either cracking or are marred up from being folded behind the sloping door support and the black scuff marks are not coming off.

    I have the Airlift bumper and brackets, but no nuts and bolts. Need sizes...

    Good luck. Let us know how it went -- that is assuming that you still have most/all of your digits and at least some skin to press the keyboard keys. :-)

    M998 soft doors - repair or replace?

    I wanted to update you that the suggested fixes worked great. I would still like to find a reasonable source for at least 2 front doors, but what we did so far to patch the broken stitching seems to hold up.

    Tire debate...

    Whatever you do, check the tire pressure. I picked up some tires with wheels, all assembled and inflated. Didn't bother to check the tire pressure. Now less than a month and 1,000 miles later, my 'new' tire is trashed. Live and learn I suppose; live and learn. Sent from my SM-G920P using...

    New member, just got my EUC approved and headed out to pick up my M998A1 this weekend

    Got my M998 from Texarkana TX few months back. Guys are more than willing and actually prefer to load M998s with forklift. No need to try to start it, aim it, etc.

    I got myself stuck last week. I've been on a self recovery hunt since. Getting chains, ropes, shackles and figuring out a way to mount my new 12,000 LBS winch. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

    Hmmwv hydraulic fan delete, addition electric fan

    How common is for the fan to run almost constantly? While driving my new (to me) 998 at highway speeds (pushing 60+MPH) on a sunny, 70° day, the fan kicks on about 30-45 seconds after it shut off from previous cycle. I don't want to know what it'll be like in a 100+ degree weather we have here...

    What do you keep on M998 for self recovery?

    Do you have any pictures? Do you also have a way to mount it to the front? Where do you normally store it? I've been looking at the 12VDC winches but have not been able to get past the 12v supply, battery drain, etc. Is there a way to swap a motor in those and make it a 24VDC unit?

    What do you keep on M998 for self recovery?

    So while I know that the first rule of offroading alone is NEVER OFFROAD ALONE!, there are always going to be times when you're alone. After dispensing with all the mumbo jumbo about notifying others about planned route, ETA, having provisions, blankets, first aid kit, etc., I'm looking for...
