While not their intended use, would some 17” limiting straps attached to the stock shock mounting points do the trick? Seems like it would be some margin of safety keeping the spring in place while also keeping the entire assembly from overextending for the rare chance that one reaches full...

Is this a real risk? Obviously an instantaneous release of immense pressure is potentially deadly, but is it likely? I thought jeep guys ran setups like that, too.

I’m in Illinois where the HMMWV is verboten per the Lord of the Tumblers. I didn’t even bother with the DMV here and went with Dirt Legal to get it tagged/titled in Utah. This was several years ago at this point. It wasn’t cheap, but it was easy, I have a street legal title, despite still not...

I’m running 24v red LEDs on my gauges- M1123

Details? I’d love something louder, but I’m not going to be that guy with a Train Horn.

I don’t run the seat bottoms, but I do have the sides. My plan for the winter is to replace the wood slats with E-Track to secure taller loads.

Old thread, but related- My M1123 front differential INPUT s seems to have a good amount of play, about 1/2-3/4” of rotation before hitting resistance (wheels on ground, parking break set). This can make a “clunk” sound occasionally, but it’s small and hard to notice. This is a new one for me...

The old ones did, supposedly the new ones are good to go, from what I’ve read. I can’t confirm personally, though.

Would it be reasonable to run it all the time or are you glad you put on the Cepek’s? I did some scrounging earlier and it looks like a mid 2000s Pathfinder shocks would work, but require the stud to be threaded and mated to an eyehole converter. That or some shocks from a late ‘90s Chevy 1500...

@LouWon - Are you still running it without shocks? How does it handle at speed/corners? Do potholes/uneven roads really upset it? I'm running a softtop/doors (usually off) M1123 (non-MAK) and 95% of my driving is under 45mph. I would LOVE to soften the ride up a LOT for the sake of the...

I run the same setup. Aside from having to turn down the squelch when the doors are off, it works great and we can all communicate comfortably, even at speed.

Sometimes referred to as Dzus fasteners.

I'm no expert, but someone else will likely chime in as well - I'd guess that serial goes back to a M1097R1.

HMMWVs don’t have traditional VINs like the Lotus. It could have had one assigned by the state, but we wouldn’t know anything about that number (only certain states do this). The closest thing we have is a 6 digit serial number- 199,516 for example. No letters. Most DMV systems have a hard...

Mine has a little clip towards the rear of the vehicle, it needs to be lifted out of the way, then a straight pull.

Replicas of the original soft doors or different? Functional windows? I have Arctic doors and would like windows that can open, so I’m definitely interested.

Where did you get those doors? That design is new to me.

Automatic Transmission Fluid? If so, does it dry?

Aye, it's a big boy, that's for sure.

Carrier bearing support?
