    Supplemental Armored Door Install Questions

    Hey fellas. I'm installing some supplemental armored doors on a HMMWV that previously had soft doors. The stock hinges seem flimsy with these heavy doors. Are there sturdier hinges available? I haven't been successful in finding any in the TMs. They mount and close well, but don't seal up...

    HMMWV Battery / Requirements

    I just called Optima and asked for advice. They told me the Yellow-top D34 are dual purpose - designed for starting and deep cycles. I asked about warranty and they said it's 36-months, whether used for starting or not. I'll proceed with getting those, under the assumption that 750 CCA's are...

    HMMWV Battery / Requirements

So I'm between the yellow-top (deep cycle) and the red-top (starting) group 34s. Does anyone one have some technical input on the two and its suitability...

    HMMWV Battery / Requirements

    HMMWV Battery Requirements Can anyone help me out with finding specs needed for the HMMWV batteries? Specifically, what are the Cranking Amp & Cold Cranking Amp (CA & CCA) requirements for the HMMWV? And would a starting-type battery be better, or a deep-cycle? Mine will sit most of the month...

    HMMWV Battery / Requirements

    Man, that's too bad. Anyone got a source for the 6TL's that's under $200? Anything more than that and the Optimas w/adapters seems like the best fit.

    Where do you get your 6TLs for $125?

    HMMWV Battery / Requirements

    I noticed the O'Reilly and Napa 6TL's have lower rated Cranking Amps (and Cold Cranking Amps) than the original military 6TLs. That ok?
