How to mount M996/M997 ambulance "shelter" on an M998?

[MrRespectable]

I've been looking to improve my M998, which I've only have for a couple months. I've seen the ambulance tops for sale online, and like the fact that they can be locked up easily. I currently have a two door soft top config, with the kevlar doors and rear half doors. It has the fording kit and 12-bolt wheels. What is required to mount one of these tops on my M988? Will I need to drill holes in the M998 to mount the top? Will I need new rear shocks? Any help is appreciated. Thanks

The M996/997 Ambulance tops use mounting points that already exist in the Humvee body. Depending on the variant, you will likely need to upgrade the springs.

Welcome from SE Missouri.

How much can a ambulance shelter weigh? And have you checked to see how your HMMWV was outfitted in the beginning? It might have added capacity springs already.
