Another frustrating point are Vendors who don't respond to PM's. I have one vendor who finally responded after well over a month and another one going on a few days. Not sure why they're vendors if they don't want to sell anything:-/

SINCGARS Radio Mount Project I completed final painting on the MT-6352 mount yesterday. Luckily it was a nice, cold, crisp, and very dry day. It took no time at all for the paint to dry. Last night I braved the 24 degree weather with the tail end of the flu to get everything bolted in. Tonight...

Thanks Al, I'll post more pics once I get the main mount in to complete this project.

AM-7238 and AM-7239E OK, what's all the fabrication all about anyways? What kind of radio you putting in your truck? The simple answer....SINCGARS. At least someday I will. In the meantime, I will get everything ready. At this time I have an AM-7238 and AM-7239E. I have the MT-6352 en route...

Radio Tray Support Mount (cont) Second phase included mounting the actual radio tray to the top of the dash and marrying the horizontal support bracket together. The first part of this process included sitting in the driver seat and eyeballing the location of the radio tray. My goal was to keep...

Radio Tray Support Mount The first phase of the radio tray support mount was procuring some parts to make it possible. Rather than reinvent the wheel, I opted to go with the USGI parts that were designed for the M939 series 5 tons. Though these parts were designed for this truck, I tweeked the...

Haha Scott, to be honest with you, I was surprised I had a nice uninterrupted 6 hours of time to do something today. Rain or shine I was determined to get out there to get that cable replaced. As my luck had it, I was laying in a nice mud puddle underneath my truck. Man, I'm not sure where time...

Winch Control Cable Replacement- Wind-Neutral-Unwind A couple days I manage to work the old cable loose. Just like everything on this stinkin' truck, it's a test of patience! The old cable was seized. It was like that since day one but I never really had any motivation to get her fixed until...

Do you need a CDL to drive a HMMWV in my state?........LOL, had to ask;-)

Did you find the correct power cord?

Upcoming Projects and Ideas Well, as the weather would have it, things have been slowing down around our household. During this downtime, I can't help but think up projects for my truck. So, I have been pondering up some projects for this once completed truck;-). So here is a list of for sure...
