    Frame Paint options

    I use rustoleum camo black for small touch ups. Its a good match and extremely flat (flatter than regular rustoleum "flat" paint). It blends right in.

    Any tips on removing turret ring?

    I dont want to admit how much I just spent installing one of those...:( OP, the trick is to keep the roof adapter on (they are impossible to find) and install a turret.

    First post M1151A1

    For the front AC, its probably the heater core valve as you suspect. You can temporarily install a 1/2" pex ball valve to troubleshoot. If that fixes it, you can either replace the automatic valve with a new one (expensive) or do what I did and install a cable actuated valve from an m998.

    Serpentine Belt Size

    This. Also, you should clean up your wiring before you have a fire.

    Fill Jet A1 into the humvee?

    Sounds like something you'd find in the personal health aisle. 🤣

    Looking really good! Almost reminiscent of an uparmored humvee. Cant wait to see the final result.

    6.2L Water pump leaking M998

    The water pump mounts with an adapter plate. I recommend getting a new plate. As for the pump itself, I dont have the p/n on hand but be careful because the 6.2 and 6.5 are reverse from eachother. EDIT: Another member pointed out it depends on v-belt vs serpentine, not 6.2 vs 6.5 MAC motors...

    new purchase, 1st time owner, tons of questions

    For parts I recommend: MAC motors for OEM parts @86humv here and Beltfed34 on ebay for surplus parts Facebook humvee groups for hard to find stuff

    Windshield retainer question

    I have no bottom retainers on my m1151, and no issues so far.

    Windshield retainer question

    Please dont drill holes in your m1151 windshield frame. If you dont have the right retainers I would strongly suggest modifying the retainer and not your truck.

    Wiring Question on M1165

    Oh, forgot you were going through a converter, so my last comment doesnt apply. To answer your question, that depends on the radio, but I wouldnt exceed 14.5v.

    You might be right. I know there is a magnesium 3-piece run flat, so I was thinking maybe there is a way.

    Crazy thought...what if you cut the run flat into two pieces?

    Newer style blue body mount isolators

    "New" is a relative term. Newer than the old black ones? Or newer than the defective blue ones? If you want a straight answer I would just purchase them from Craig at Mac Motors.

    Newer style blue body mount isolators

    Arent they the ones that crumble apart?

    Heavy geared turret, of the M1114/MRAP variety. I'm piecing it together, so its going to be a project.

    There are spinny things in my future...
