    How difficult is it to find a complete Turret for M1045A2?

    How does the C pillar look on your truck? Curious to know. Do you also have a turret installed?

    The rear tube is the c pillar. I understand for the turret that B pillar has to come out but it's still a steel roll bar correct?

    Where did you find the keyed ignition switch? I bought the Fuel Cut-Off switch kit from Black Dog Customs for added security. I think I like this more than the regular key ignition you see all over the internet which people say is an electrical risk to the vehicle.

    How difficult is it to find a complete Turret for M1045A2?

    This is a pretty fair price for a complete turret. However, there are a couple of items I believe you say are missing, such as the C Pillar (which is hard to find) and the window brackets. Not sure if I need the window bracket as my truck is also a TOW Hmmwv. But I am not certain.

    Which look do you prefer... Modern or Traditional

    The vehicle is straight forward to service. Can it be a pain in the ass, I would imagine so, but so can others. I dont know if you've ever had to deal with porsche's, mercedes, or BMWs but they too are a pain in the ass with a bunch of proprietary bullshit. Entry point for one of these...

    What did you do for the antenna hole in the Sponson? It looks completely covered but cant tell from the picture. Also, does your truck have a body lift or a suspension lift at all? It looks great. Thanks

    Any thoughts on a useful substitution for those long spring antennas

    I am looking for alternatives to installing the long spring antenna. Its not practical and I dont want just that antenna base sitting there looking awkward. Anyone have any ideas they always thought would be cool to try on the back on their Hmmwv: 1. WiFi Range extender 2. Cell signal jammer...

    How difficult is it to find a complete Turret for M1045A2?

    So.... If I choose not to get a turret, is it possible to make this turret delete (plug GP puts in turret holes) not leak water? Or.... is it worth it, to purchase a new roof without a hole?
