Re: M1037 Get Update!
Hi George,
Military vehicles projects are my golf Like most here (including you), I work hard and play harder. If I did not have my mv's to work on and take my mind off my real job, I would problably get in trouble. Plus my wife knows where I am...in the shop . Tonight is unload a big trailer of NOS M38/M38A1 goodies obtained yesterday and pack for Canada, eh!
This M1037 (my favorite hmmwv) should be done this weekend and I will post the afters then.

libbester29,
The M1037 has the heavy springs and perches (3000 pound load capacity) and it is still squating due to the load at the time of the picture! Lots of goodies in there! Thanks for the comps.

Re: M1037 Get Update!
No pictures to share today, but I have installed the mirrors (thanks for the help Joel!), half doors, new top and reinstall the troop seats. Now I am going to put on a new luvern brush guard. Then washer bottle and glow plugs. I also bought a new A2 rear air lift bumper so I might swap out that. In fact, I might change the ECV's rear bumper as well since I have two of these new style bumpers. Argh, it never ends

Re: M1037 Gets Updated!
Okay, I finally had time to take pictures since I mechanically tested it by driving to work
New front guard, new half doors, installed the horizontal portion of the filler panel to fill in the void from the the half doors. It also provide much more acces to the front of the bed and even underneath (clever eh?)
Enjoy the pictures

Re: M1037 Gets Updated!
I have a sneeking suspision that this M1037 cargo Humvee with the heavy springs is for hauling all the cases of Red Bull that Ted must drink, so he must have three or four projects for this winter!
