Hi all,
I am thinking of embarking on a new adventure (restoring a Humvee 1986 M1045). I am use to GPWs, WCs, CUCVs, but do not know much about the Humvees. I could use some recommendations on where to find parts for it and a rough idea of cost to plan my budget. I believe there are two types of tires being used Bias ply and radials. Am I correct that the radials are the latest and greatest? Are the rims different? Are there many complications to installing a 6.5l or should I stick with a tock 6.2
Looking for:
Steering wheel
Seats and cushions
5 Tires (which kind)
3 rims for tires
Engine
Radiator
Gaskets for rear hatch
Lights and wiring harness
Armored windshield
Armored side windows 4 qty
CARC paint

Thanx as always.
Dj
