Made In America, Buy America The vinyl I use is made in New Jersey and the other parts (thread, cord and cord lock) are also US-made. And then it's made (by me) in Virginia. BDGR

Many thanks. Where did you order it? Got a link? BDGR

Please share a few pictures. Sounds interesting. BDGR

You must have a very understanding wife. (She got a sister?) Don't forget to skim a few $$ every coupe of big purchases for flowers, lots of flowers...

Dropper mine off at a garage willing to swap the transmission and transfer case. Had gathered everything to do it myself but other obligations continue to delay me and it's too cold now to do it myself. I hope to get a highway-ready HMMWV back in a week... BDGR

Finished sewing a new soft slant back to replace my old one made out of ballistic nylon. Ballistic is NOT a good fabric for large items like this bc it changes size greatly due to heat/cold, rain and sunlight. Can be very tricky to get on and off. And it didn't weather very well overall. This...

Doing a Trans TC swap? I'm dong that soon. BDGR

Looks like a SONroof

R Sounds like a Rivnut (rivet nut). Common fastener on our trucks. bdgr

That looks pretty slick. How did you mount the console, any special considerations or fasteners? BDGR

Correct, expandable plug

Best to order a new one and have it ready. I'd say your chances of being able to reuse it are somewhere between 0 and 0 percent.

Plenty of people looking for new canvas doors, myself included. Won't be hard to get rid of them. BDGR

I've heard a common failure for wiper motors is the power wire getting pinched at the bottom of the windshield where the windshield folds down. If yours was folded down at some point, it could have pinched and cut that wire. Bulldogger

Changed the oil, greased all the zerks I could access and gave her a washdown. Plenty more to do to get her ready for Graves Mountain Rally and of the month. Also finished installing Camo Tek front blinkers. I had to first replace the side markers as they were all badly corroded! I found a...

I've got two Mini Cooper seats to try. I just need to fab the mounts/frames. Been too hot to want to cut and weld steel lately. BDGR

Looks good. Mine rusted similarly and I used an exhaust coupling as a donor part to weld on and around the old seam. Held for a couple years until I replaced the powertrain. BDGR

Here's a thread on my design with plenty of posts from others in as well. The thread has a link to the development thread as well. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/hmmwv-4-man-soft-slant-back-feedback-and-discussion.176620/ I made a tan slant back for a fellow in Maryland late 2021. I'm...

I'll be sure to contact you directly. Are you looking for 2-man, 4-man w rear seat belt mounts or 4-man without belt mounts? I figure on making 2-man and 4-man seatbelt. I wonder how many folks have 4-man without rear belts. And what color? I've green, tan and black fabric on hand. No camo...

I'm close to having a set of rear curtain designs I am satisfied with (at least for beta testers to try out). I have some 2-man versions ready, but still have to finish the 4-man design. I don't make tops and don't plan to. Way too much sewing in one of those. You didn't ask but I'll offer that...
