I got a few more items checked off the punch list this weekend with some help from my dad and brother. The swapped out my front composite lights for some LED units while I spliced in a connector for my turn signal flasher and installed the flasher. I also swapped in the second LED taillight and replaced the front output seal on the transfer case. Finally, we got a couple of new mirror kits bolted on. It's nice to be able to see behind me again. My brother and I took it for a test drive last night and man, those LED lights make a real difference. I certainly feel safer on the road knowing that people will be able to see my signals better. The headlights will knock a man down on hi-beam!
I should receive my beadlock inserts this week and be able to assemble my wheels. That will totally change the look and feel of the truck.

Re: Cummins HMMWV project
Sounds like you are making progress on the truck. The LED's are nice but imagine what a HID light bar would look like on your truck!

Yeah, one of those light bars is definitely on the wish list. It would be great for off-roading at night!

Finally got my new tires and wheels installed. They look a lot better than those silver 1-piece rims!
