Those LH and RH Brackets attach to the doorway and C Pillar by Item 29 Part B1821BH031F113N 4each 5/16-24x 1 1/8" and
Item 24 Part CR3243-6-5 8each Blind Rivets. You can google search those Part #s to get the exact specs for that hardware.
You can patch that roof with the correct 2 part cement (adhesive and accellerator) plus some loose sheet of the same material. There are different types of cement for PVC and Hypalon fabric (from working on Zodiacs), I believe the US issue ragtops are a PVC base. There is a single component...
Pop the hood for some photos, it could have the original 6.2l NA or got a newer 6.5l NA (Detuned) during overhaul, the water crossover at the engine front will tell you which. It doesn't say "in accordance with IROAN (Inspect, Repair Only As Necessary)" so may have very well received a...
Those 13 look like they were all one side, the curb side, but at least they answer a lot of questions and would allow them to be reproduced in mirror image. Sheesh, $1000+ each, for one side before fees and markup.
Humkini Stowage/C Pillar Stability: Figure 321 Item 25 Parts 12447124-1 and 12447123-1 Bracket, Mounting LH and RH, help stabilize the soft top C Pillar. What do you think about rolling up the Humkini top around the windshield strip, and use a couple of cinch straps attached to C Pillar with...
The VW/Audi Type 183 Iltis 1/4ton had a vinyl top that secured to the windshield frame by two latches attached to the windshield frame and the latch hooks attached to a 1" square bar set inside a pocket at the front edge of the vinyl roof.
Same style system is used to install the Amtech helmet...
What do you think about sizing the ring to use the silver or black aluminum HMMWV M1025 turret bearings? I see a couple different LSV variant M1161s, different superstructure over the back deck. Use the bottom side rails welded to the diamond plate as the roadmap for the top side rails, as...

Rob R is somewhat close to you, he gets 6.5l GEP-Ts from time to time, Let him know what you seek and he will keep you in the loop when he gets stuff in. The long block I got from him came with the engine harness that just needed some end fittings replaced and one splice done, the 4L80E and...
How far are you from FL state line? I've got the engine sling, air over hydraulic cherry picker etc here just not the brawn to use it. I'm trading some unused stuff to a Pensacola FD/ALARNGman former Light Wheeled Vehicle Mechanic to have one of my GMVs upgraded with a 6.5l GEP-T.
I regret...
NP242 are rebuilt all the time, just buy a rebuild kit, the specific parts you broke, or pay a shop to rebuild it, install new seals (that tend to eventually leak anyway) Here at the bottom are a couple rebuild kit options for early and late H1...
SOCOM GMV have an A-Frame Spare Tire Carrier that can be mounted several ways, including along the front edge of the LH rear wheelhouse, centered in the bed at the C Pillar even placed in the center of a bumper shelf. 86HMMWV makes a faithful copy of the A Frame Spare Carrier.
Some of the...
TTBOMK, the GI parts have the part number molded into the ribbed backside of the housing, the imports do not. All mine have the bracket arms made from steel or aluminum. I don't know if the round spacer should be aluminum or plastic on the Genuine Issue part, but I know the tan import I...
I love mechanical stuff, I look at that Stanadyne Fuel Injector Pump with all the fuel lines, its like the ultimate Rube Goldberg device. There is a animated video of it on YouTube somewhere.
