Finally replaced all my seat belts. Moved away from 3 points in back seats to lap belts to make a cleaner look with the Blue Ox top. Then got the bulkhead divider done. Super sketchy getting the holes drilled and rivets in without puncturing gas tank or filler tube.be.
Painted doghouse and radio tray I installed. Also fabricated this aluminum arm to hold this mount that will serve to hold my cell phone. Apparently this was used to hold GPS devices in vehicles. Iphone 12 with case fits in it perfectly. Found a document storage box to go with radio tray, but...
Thanks for the insight. I was able to speak with GOVt planet about this. They took the title back and was able to get Florida to issue a new title with the correct year.
Blue OX tops, the guy that I got my custom made top from also makes door skins. He has OEM material or the sailcloth material used to make the tops for civilian hummers and you can choose colors.
Ok, I got one from GVT planet as well. It was listed as a 1995 in the auction, but then the title from Florida I paid extra $200 for came in as a 2008. 2008 was the year my rig was overhauled. but it was built in 1995. I went back to GVT planet and said "I bought this rig listed as a 1995."...
I added all LEDs to my rig. Did the front first and was working. Next day did the rear, driver side and was still working. Added the right rear and it would flash in night drive, but not the day setting (forget the correct terms). I checked all grounding and then it started working once I...
Finally got the hood painted/replaced and the driver's cowl panel painted/replaced. Did some half ass touching up with rattle cans and not done yet. Got my Blue Ox Top installed, but the curtain hasn't been installed yet as I'm moving the rear seat belts for a cleaner look. All new LED lights...
I haven't had much time to mess with it. I'm going to send it to a mechanic for an inspection once I replace my hood. But I may hold off on that right now as they made a mistake on my title. The sf97 was coming my way and they flagged it with Fedex to return it because they realized I paid...
Drained and replaced transmission fluid as well as oil and filter. The filter took a few hours to break off. A bolt to the transmission pan was flush up against the base of filter causing friction. Plus, the date written on the filter was December of 2018. It appears the truck has been...
I've drained the transmission. Operators manual states this transmission takes 6qts of Dexron3. I fill with 6 quarts of fluid and the dipstick shows the level is way high? Do I have to warm this thing up to get the level to read correctly or should I drain some out? Appreciate any insight.
Too early to pass judgement but it feels like something is wrong. I have a 115HP CJ7 that would blow by this humvee in a race. But I will admit, I don't have any idea on what to expect with this truck. I still need to clean out the air filter and probably replace fuel filter among other...
In this set of pics, you can see the damage to the aluminum on the wheel well by the hood. Also windshield border trim has some screws missing. Not sure what the two holes above passenger side glass are for.
It was pretty easy getting things done through the auction process. Won auction on 9/14 and it shows up from Chambersburg, PA to my residence in Georgia on 10/7. I imagine I'll be waiting some time for the Montana title to show up based on other's reported experiences.
It was delivered to a...
I found one on GOVT planet that is a single brand new hood in crate. Also, I know a guy who works for a LTL freight dispatch company. If I win the auction, he's gonna slap it on the next truck he can get to Yermo. I suppose I could wait and look for one that is more local but I am not a...
