A couple of years ago I bought a steering wheel and adapter for the humvee. I didn't like the look of the adapter and mounts or the horn setup and I put it on the shelf. After mounting the new ignition switch and steering column lock it was time to revisit the steering wheel.
I took the...
I would not put the time into rebuilding it and I put a lot of time into stuff like that. If you have a few hundred hours and about as much money as it costs to buy a replacement, you could rebuild it. That said, in third world and poor countries some guy with a butter knife and can of WD-40...
Ok, so I have version A on my truck and purchased version B. It was just delivered a few minutes ago and now that I have it in hand I see that my picture B is not the complete unit. I am pretty sure version B did not come on HMMWV's. It mounts using a adapter and the hose clamp. The version...
This is kind of a learning question for me. So far I believe A is Early style. C is late style with cancelling. B also has cancelling but I'm not sure it was used in HMMWV's. Seems too short and I assume all HMWV's have a mount and would not need the hose clamp type mount. I have some minor...
Isn't that more like C?
I would love to see a better picture showing the mount. The photos I used I found online and and had the hose clamps on them. Thanks
Here's a couple of examples of Skeleton doors that give that wide open feeling and still help retain the precious cargo. It would not be hard to make a set.
I made the switch mount and it works but I have to tuck the switch in tighter to the column. I think I can get another 1/8" - 3/16" clearance. This is only required on mine because I shortened the steering column 2", on a stock column it wouldn't be a problem. I ordered a newer style...
In a previous post about the ignition switch I mentioned I might try to upgrade it for increased current capability (more AMPS). During my locking steering column modification I cut open the old Chinese key switch ignition and found the contact plate was burnt and melted. This was partially a...
I'll also add they have different connectors for the different systems so the current brake light switch wires will only fit the correct connectors on the new brake switch.
Ok, good luck. FYI, the ones I pointed out are made in USA and are a fraction of the prices of what you indicated. They are not a Hummer style "finished" door.
