    My first M998: Fixing her up

    First time I've seen a picture of the "newer" bracket. Now I know why people just trim the old style bracket. Appreciate your posted pics!

    Slant Back Sideboards

    Thread both ends of the pipe and buy caps... Cap one end and fill tightly with sand, then cap the other end... Hit with a torch and then use your bender... It will look awesome!

    Slant Back Sideboards

    What about... Mandrel bent tube steel bent to the contours of a slantback. Simple yet interesting. A few holes for ties down straps and such, and totally functional while visually appealing.

    Slant Back Sideboards

    Why don't you purchase the slantback soft top one of the members here sells?

    Slant Back Sideboards

    I agree with Coug... Your work is fine but the look just doesn't feel right.

    Duramax engine swap

    Not only will you get to do an amazing engine/drive train swap, you will get to auction off a lot of stuff to re-coupe a lot of your investment. I think you got an awesome deal. As far as being "run hard" , and the fact that she is a roll-over, with all these upgrades she might have been run...

    New LED backup light

    NICE! I thought the "4x 6inch" in the item title meant dimensions, not 4 of them 6 inches long. My bad, or actually the poster's/seller's bad. Really jealous of your ambulance, but I already have a slantback. I bet yours is drier inside though. Appreciate this and all your posts. I will buy...

    You sure that’s the light. It’s showing 22 clams and you quoted 7. Thanks for posting. T

    Duramax engine swap

    Next time you consider running out during a lightning and hail storm, go to your golf bag and grab your 1 iron and hold your 1 iron over your head. I hear tell that not even God can hit a 1 iron. LOL If this is the first vehicle you've worked on, I'd like to introduce you to my nephew. He's a...

    Duramax engine swap

    I might have been wrenching for a while, so I can predict the devastating and damaging forces of Nature. Whenever a vehicle is outside, and whenever I open up things that like to stay closed, I cover with duct tape or painters' tape and then plastic and then a tarp held in place with either...

    New LED backup light

    1) Please link to Ebay auction. 2) Are you sure that's not the Mystery Machine Scooby Doo wagon? LOL

    Duramax engine swap

    Cover her with a tarp or you will be farked. Sell the wheels on EBay and then buy what you want.

    My first M998: Fixing her up

    You feel guilty? I would light a proverbial fire under their asses and have an attorney send them a written threat! They own you an apology and money for their half assed freak show that they call good service. IMHO

    Duramax engine swap

    Mogman, I might consider using the engine and tranny as one unit. I would just cut off the hood, fenders and door to start the vehicle.

    Your comments aside, there is no data linking Alabama to issues. Google search is your friend: https://www.hummersurplusparts.com/hmmwv-street-legal-titling-status-state/ https://motorandwheels.com/hummers-street-legal-rules/

    Alabama Title

    Great first post!!!! Seriously. You're making sure you don't buy a paperweight. Welcome.

    Has anyone seen this AWESOME spare tire rack system?

    On looking closely, it looks like it could have been previously used in the NYC garment district. A bunch of plumbing pipes and pipes bends jerry rigged together. Brilliant in its simplicity. I like that a lot! Smart design and easily imitated. Simple to use without ratchets and such...

    Rear fender condenser to Red Dot install thread

    Please take pictures. I gotta do this in 2 months. LOL

    Rear fender condenser to Red Dot install thread

    AFAIK you need to cut louvres into the fender.

    Red Dot A/c Question

    If you contaminate that compressor to save 20 minutes work you will hate yourself. IMHO, you should pull the compressor and buy whatever temporary belts you need to make up the difference. (I'm assuming you're running serpentine.)
