    Is there a separate parts manual for the ECV M1165A1 parts?

    If it helps anyone, those parts are known as "gutters" and you can fabricate a decent substitute simply by cutting some 1/4" thick 6" wide aluminum

    Wanting to start a new HMMWV business. Need your help.

    In my limited experience and observations, humvees are very hard to sell on the private market. They tend to sit very long, waiting for the right buyer. And they always seem to be worth more to the seller than the open market.

    Door striker sticks out too far for door to shut properly.

    I hope you are drilling holes in the striker and not in your B pillar.

    Hole pattern for chicken plate mount?

    I already have the pintle adapter, but its the kind that doesnt have the mounting flange. I can easily weld one on if I have the dimensions. You're right that I could make it any dimension I want. But I wanted to maintain parts interchangability if I ever buy OEM parts.

    Hole pattern for chicken plate mount?

    The drawing posted is for the plate, I need the hole pattern thats on the pintle adapter. This part: There is a bar between them and it looks like the hole pattern might be different from one side to another: Are you saying its actually the same on both sides? Its hard to tell but maybe it is?

    Hole pattern for chicken plate mount?

    @BLK HMMWV if you can get that hole pattern I'll paypal you 10 bucks. Just need a distance center to center on the holes (width wise and height) and what diameter hardware is used.

    Arrival of 2nd HMMWV M1151A1

    Thats support for the armor/armored door. Thats a score, if you dont use it you can probably get some coin for it on ebay.

    Door striker sticks out too far for door to shut properly.

    I dont think the striker is wrong or flipped around. That does appear to be the proper front striker. However, your door looks like it might be a reproduction, not a real x-door. Have any pictures of the door latch area?

    AC Diagnosis: Help me prevent throwing parts at my M998

    It does seem like the leak is in the evaporator. With the unit being under the radio shelf, I'm thinking its aftermarket of some sort? Can you find a brand name on it anywhere?

    How about a turret mounted nerf gun?

    Hole pattern for chicken plate mount?

    That would be fantastic, thank you! Thanks, I actually already found this drawing. Now I'm looking for the part where it mounts to the pintle adaper via 4 holes.

    Hole pattern for chicken plate mount?

    I'm thinking about making my own chicken plate and mount setup (possibly ballistic or just for show, I'm undecided). Does anyone know the dimensions of the 4 mounting holes in the universal pintle adapter? (Shown below)

    Arrival of 2nd HMMWV M1151A1

    I mean, it takes skills to install those parts right? How much more skill does it really take to make a gov planet account, bid on a truck, and pull the parts off it? I feel like anyone ambitious enough to tackle a slantback coversion has to at least consider buying a parts truck.
