Where did I mention I added a deep fording kit? I only mentioned the intake snorkel, I have the rest of the kit if I wanted to install it but I think the muffler looks goofy so there is no point installing the rest of the kit for 60" fording capability.

I agree about the muffler looking a little goofy. You did a lot of great add ons

Do NOT see ANY pics., only links, guess it is not important enough to post pics, so I guess it is not enough for me to click on the links.

"Technical"? Looks like a HMMWV to me. Your HMMWV outclasses any "technical" I've seen.

You're doing your former US military HMMWV a disservice by lumping it in with "technicals".

you will regret the digital switch when it burns up your switch and wiring....
Agreed - ya might think you want it because it's the most current, but I was at the USASOC Motor Pool at Bragg the other day and even the late uparmored M1152 GMV trucks had the "old" 3-lever switch. That's pretty telling to me.

Couple of guys have beat you up but I for one do not mind clicking links and it is a great looking truck. Now to just get a M2 for your mount.....
