I have my own vision for the LMTV. Started a vlog about it. Vlog #1:

And the OH 1078 Coupe is born...
Nicely done. The only fault I could find was with the joke at the end....

Another difference in the weight is that the TM defines "curb weight" as a weight that is ready-to-roll, with driver, equipment, fuel, MOPP gear, etc. Right away you should be about 1000lb off.

Yes, the "before" weight at the scales confirms what you say. I weighed it in stock configuration, with a second spare tire/wheel, before I started the project. Steer axle = 10,440 lb, drive axle = 6240 lb, gross weight 16, 680 lb.

Thank you for that clarification.
