    Armor armored headlight IR lens replacement

    Yes, For the IR, they had the red lens filter. There is a clear lens some of tthe fixtures had but many were just the beam without the lens. Those sealed beams are available in the civy world as spot, flood, wide etc in 12v as they were common to work bodies and agriculture before Led changed...

    Armor armored headlight IR lens replacement

    Typically the sealed beam is the lens as those are weatherproof sealed beams designed to be used exposed.

    M116A3 Landing Gear Crank Fabrication & 12 volt LED Conversion

    depending on the manufacture of the original bucket, Try a test fit on depth then it can be stripped out and drill a larger hole to pass the cables but way much easier to find the original style empty buckets for the LED lights. Truck lite and grote buckets should be interchangeable for LED and...

    Shock absorber length

    I don't think shocks are the problem and probably help more than you realize. It is the stiffness of those uparmored springs to carry the weight that is giving you the nasty ride. I would recommend using the stock m998 springs and if worried about the 6.5 motor possibly being heavier than the...

    Transmission oil cooler valve?

    I believe that is the Transmission oil sample port. The military uses lab analysis on its oils to determine maintenance intervals. There is usually a tube /barb fitting to push a hose on that appears to be missing from the petcock fitting on yours.

    M998 6.2L STARTER SHIMS

    Any parts store should stock motormite help / doorman gm shims. Typically comes 2 or 3 different widths in one card. Mainstream gm 60-90's You will have to measure to get the correct width with feeler gauges or mic. Looks like oe military is .080 according to tm

    MRAP Caiman

    unfortunately none of us have access to the Tm's or etms for these trucks as they are restricted. Most who posted have not been back in a while. I would recommend asking the question of the problem or exact info needed and see if someone might be able to help?

    HMMWV Side Marker Blinker System!

    The relay and alternating flash is cool though. This could work for the M939 and other trucks.

    CO Insuring HMMWV NEWER than 20 years

    Hagerty told me no as I do not have a garage. Many here have been able to get coverage with them without a garage. That inconsistency makes me wonder about their coverage if i ever have a problem. YMMV State Farm covered me with classic/antique and I also added my m923 with them the same way.

    HMMWV Side Marker Blinker System!

    Cool Idea! I assume it would not make a difference if it was the led marker light instead of the incandescent? I did not see anything on the website?

    Intro/skid plate question/exhaust question.

    Yes, the kit has detailed instructions and can be done in segments. The front cage (do you have a winch?) , Main cage., differential plate, gas tank plate, rear differential cage. I pieced my kit together individually . Maybe 5 hours total if all done at one time. Dont really recall . Let me...

    Intro/skid plate question/exhaust question.

    The underbody protection kit does require the cross members to be drilled. Most holes are easy. One was challenging. I used a step drill bit. Most of the kit is bolt on to the frame with brackets utilizing existing holes. Not a crazy difficult install. Some pics on my Juan's m998 thread here...

    M101/105 bow parts question

    The bow length and height are both adjustable. M105's are taller and wider.

    M101/105 bow parts question

    To adjust the length. M101 are shorter than the m105. Both trailers use the same metal bows.
