I've got 5 or 6 types of stick-on noise and heat foam to try in different places as well. But I'll need to strip the interior and clean it thoroughly before that project. :)
Haven't updated in here for a while. Probably the biggest of a LONG list of updates has been the turret and GPK that now live on top of the Battlewagon 3.
:)
And I checked the spindle nuts...
And put some armor-like overlays on the quarter and rocker panels to cover up the holes where the MAK...
Thanks.
Did you go with LED bulbs in the conventional sockets?
I switched to LED replacement fixtures on both of my HMMWVs and have been thrilled. The difference in visibility is amazing.
Um. What?
I've put immense blood sweat and tears into this truck over the past year. Unfortunately, business priorities have changed and I can't justify keeping this business asset at this time. I'm not remotely happy about it.
How does joking about the buyer being worthy mean I'm not a good...
Strictly a business asset management decision right now. Too much $ tied up in one asset.
I'm still very interested in MVs and see a place for one in my business. I expect that another is in my future, at some point. 😎
lol. I get a kick out of this type of comment.
I had tan doors on the original Battlewagon for a while and it drove some folks NUTS.
Personally... I liked it because it was visually distinctive. ie. it made my truck stand out. It is a marketing truck. I have it to get attention for my brand...
Lots more done the past few days. The biggest two were...
Installed the Turret
Installed the Ibis Tek Low Profile Protective front bumper
And other stuff... https://gear-report.com/p/6cb
The Ibis Tek spare tire carrier with freshly fabricated mounting brackets should be delivered today. :)
Got one of the dome lights apart to reconnect the power cable.
Won't install it until after the turret goes back in.
Started fabbing mounting brackets for the Ibis Tek Low Profile Protective Front Bumper.
And other stuff... https://gear-report.com/p/6cb
Installed Airlift bumper and pinball hitch.
Sent IP to be rebuilt. REALLY hoping it comes back this week for installation over the holiday break.
Finished installing the new round LED side marker lights.
Installed one JW Speaker LED headlight to test against the military 24v incandescent light...
The bottom of the IP in the M1045A2 sat in water for a few years while the USMC had the truck in longterm storage and was rusted solid. I pulled the IP to swap in a locally sourced replacement.
Then realized the replacement is for a 3 speed truck, not a 6.5 with 4 speed. That is the last time I...
Same question here. I've emailed them before and never got any response.
So, I got a few of these cheap and put them over the seat, with the chest molle panel facing aft. Worked better than I expected.

Thanks. Neither the IP or the truck were under water. The USMC left the intake uncovered while it was parked in long-term storage for years. So, it filled the engine with a few gallons of water. The throttle control on the IP is stiff. I'm hoping it is just some congealed fuel in it that will...
