grab rail screws to C, B and A pillar. It’s tan in the photo (maybe looks dark). I have a standard C pillar for a soft top. I left it in place when taking the gap measurement to Maintain the location of the C pillar. If you are looking at some of the aftermarket hardtops that grab Rail is...

Couple different ways you can go on this but I am making my own fiberglass hardtop and cut the B pillar down: lay a 6’ level across like photo, measure gap at the A pillar and since the b pillar is almost in the center of A and C, you divide gap /2 and that’s how much I cut off the B pillar...

Or your speedometer is messing with your head And lying to you. Use GPS Speedo (phone) to double check it.

all depends on what you want to do with it and what your total spend limit is. aftermarket seats, new soft doors, new top...probably about $3k. don’t think you can slap a turbo on a 6.2 Or turn the fuel pump up and think you’ll have something you can drive 70mph on the highway. the 6.2’s in...

you’ll be disappointed as a HMMWV owner if you don’t like strangers coming up to you and asking about it, little kids pointing to it saying “army truck” or just about everyone pointing, nodding, staring or waving at you. If your wife takes it out without you...she will get proposed to. Just...

yes I used roller but that wasn’t the issue. It was making the 18oz and then the chopped mat make the radius’ To the flange (there‘s a 1” flange). First go around I had a tighter radius and it was a disaster. Second hand layup I modified the mold radius to a more gentle transition and it...

Been wanting to do some fiberglass projects and decided the rear curtain would be as good a place as any to start. Have never worked with fiberglass before so the learning curve was steep. wanted to design something a little different by not having boxes over the rear seatbelts but wanted...

Got a couple Bestop Trailmax II seats installed. Used the existing driver’s frame (cut back and bottom springs off). welded a couple 1/4”t bar stock for mounting plates. A little double sided tape on cardboard with bolts in the hole locations leaves a nice imprint for drilling. Seat is a...

It was years ago when I took those measurements and I’m old as dirt but I did mic them and it measured 5/16”. I no longer have that vehicle (and no x-doors) or I’d mic them again to Verify...

If you only have a few packard connections to make and don’t want to spend a bunch on a tool, I used this and it worked quite well. Round hole at bottom for female connectors and the arrow for males. It leaves a little “wing” but fits inside the plastic insert in the male connector. All...

Thanks, that rim was an idea from other pics of guys here. Well, I couldn’t tell if the road noise was increased bc of the tread pattern over the incredibly loud engine noise and I’m sure the “ride quality“ is a little better bc of tires but honestly to really improve that you’ve got to change...

i went with Black Rhino Armory rims (several guys on here run those) and I like the look. looked at several tire options And decided on Yokohama Geolander X-MT 37x13.5xR17 including beads, set of 4 was $2,500

Stay at home situation has at least one benefit...punch list gets some check marks. all PMCS is done. All the electrical gremlins have been sorted. took it for a 10 mile shake down, shes Running well. Installed the backup lights, pulled power from run/start (already had a Y packard connector...

An electrical circuit does not care how or how many points to earth it has. Clean the grounds in the truck AND put a harness in...won’t hurt a single thing and can actually help. Your house has at least 2 and probably 3 points to earth...all connected. Nothing wrong with it.

Welcome to the addiction!

My MOTO: check and eliminate the easy stuff first. I had exact same symptoms you describe and it was a leak in fuel line. Those are things you should check over anyway. Let us know what the solution ends up being.

I had a similar issue, mine was a very small leak in fuel line under passenger side. Didn’t see a lot of fuel on ground when parked...but under acceleration it would lose power rapidly then surge. If you are seeing hard start as well...check all fuel lines. I found mine while someone was...

Welcome! There are millions of “Jeep guys”. Soon you’ll be known as “the humvee guy”. At least in my town, there’s only 1 of those.
