    Looking for a 4 Man Hard Top without the Turret Hole

    Thank you for this. I haven't found one online worthwhile for under 60k. However, I'm way ahead of the game theoretically. I say theoretically because I haven't received it yet. Don't know what kind of gremlins exist with it yet. GP Lost my paperwork then afterwards submitted it late. At least...

    Looking for a 4 Man Hard Top without the Turret Hole

    That looks great! I saw what they had in their site but was concerned on the specs and wasn't sure if the roof was identical to OEM. Did you have any issues with fitment? Did your existing oem fasteners, nuts and bolts work with this top? Did you need any additional hardware? Oh and lastly, do...

    Will X Doors for the M1151 or M1114 fit the A2 Series Trucks

    Ok, I believe I have found the answer. The X-Doors for the M1151 or M1114 wont fit the roof line of the A2 trucks. These doors are straight like the steel uparmor doors while x-doors are shaped with a slight V to fit the roof.

    Will X Doors for the M1151 or M1114 fit the A2 Series Trucks

    I was under the impression that X Doors are the same for all trucks but I could be wrong so I wanted to post it here and get the expert opinion. Are there any issues with X-Doors for the M1151 or M1114 fitting a M1045A2? Thanks in advance

    Anyone know a great shop in SoCal for service?

    Thanks RW. This vehicle is coming from GA. I also have a truckload of parts already to install such as windshield, frame, battery cover, mirrors, tires, mushroom top, and more. I'd have to drive up to you and meet the shipper at your shop. Who do you use for shipping? UShip or your own...

    Anyone know a great shop in SoCal for service?

    While I appreciate this and this is something that I will do, I need an initial inspection from an experienced eye making sure I do t have a throttle that sticks or faulty brakes etc. The rest I will pick up in time. I've worked on plenty of cars but I still want the eye of someone who does this...

    Anyone know a great shop in SoCal for service?

    Does anyone have a recommendation for a good shop in Southern California. I want to have a thorough initial inspection done when this truck is finally released and I receive it. I'd like to send it to RW but he's way up North. Any recommendations?

    Took a quick trip to Yermo to GP site today

    Hmmmm... They haven't had slant backs for sale out of California in over a year. Interesting as GP is now increasing their fees for each item sold. Maybe they will start moving these in anticipation of higher sales prices so they can make more money off their fees. I wonder how much longer...

    Took a quick trip to Yermo to GP site today

    Got boarded and was out that way so I took a quick trip to Yermo to GP site today. Couldn't see too much from the service road but I did get a glimpse of what they have on the lot. Don't know if they will go to auction or if they are headed to our allies overseas. I never see these models in...

    Anyone familiar with this slant back part - Flush Latch 1 Cargo Hatch Humvee Slant Back Latch Handle

    I believe this is for the rear hatch. As Tobash mentioned its good to keep the hatch locked from the outside.

    Authentic Side Mirrors

    This is what I saw 'MLC' on the back of the one I had. I included a screen shot.

    Authentic Side Mirrors

    Ok, I figured it out. The one with the 'MLC' is not OEM but American made. The tell tell sign is the MLC on the back and the curved mirror adjustment beacket at the bottom. Vendor said they have sold 100s of these pairs over the years with no complaints. One is OEM and one is aftermarket. They...

    Authentic Side Mirrors

    As you can see lots of overspray. Plus there is 'MLC' on the back of one of the mirrors. Anyone know what that is? On 2nd thought I think the one with the MLC is legit.

    Authentic Side Mirrors

    Thanks. So I bought these from one of the well known hmmwv parts dealers who sold them as OEM: These smell like fresh paint.
