    lol, not fun, Don't fib bro, it must be so fun doing every part of this build I know I would be having a blast even if I had to be re-drilling an armor plate on the back of this beast of a Humvee, keep killing it looking so good now. Before you know it, watch out world!, you will be cruising in style.

    I have binged on your humvee build and only have one question.. any sleepless nights? 😂
    I can’t wait to see more broski 💪🏻

    The new steering wheel is so sick, way better than the original one for sure!

    Ohh that steering wheel removal was crazy 🤯 sometimes things just need to be manhandled . New one looks awesome 😎. You are showing huge progress. I know it seams slow and tedious but you are killing it 👊 . All the lights working is a milestone for sure. I was wondering about the difference in body washers myself, OCD made me buy all new and the same thickness 😅. Keep up the great work, it pays off at all time, not just at the end👍

    I had the same fight with the steering wheel! Had to use a BIG gear puller to get the damn thing loose!

    Yes you are right, we keep hearing it a lot that some prefer the original humvee steering wheel over any other steering wheel, which is absolutely fine, to each their own. . . HOWEVER 😁 if the only comfort related upgrade they do to their humvees is to change the original skinny steering wheel to a nicer one with a thicker more comfortable grip like your new steering wheel, their humvees will feel VERY different in their hands while driving . . . much nicer "different"!.... in some cases, it might even feel like having new tires. (this is NOT a suggestion that people should substitute changing their old, worn-out, rotten, and unsafe tires with a new steering wheel! lol . . . safety first!)

      Yeah I see why people like the originals but this one I want something new

    Did you shift the airbox closer to the center, so it wouldn't rub on the inside of the hood?

    • @SplitBuilds
      @SplitBuilds  ปีที่แล้ว

      No, it’s in its same spot

    Do you plan to put on different bumpers to hide the body lift? Awesome video

    You spent all that time putting the fender armor on to just cover it in sound deadening. I mean, you're hitting the details. Even if no one is ever going to see. But i dont understand the logic of it. You do that saying how good it looks, then cover it up. But not take the time to fix rockers, slap a jack rail on it.
    Your truck, you do you. But, a little inconsistent for the sake of the camera. Like the looks.
    As for your wood hood lift. Go to a machine shop and ask them to mil you a set of lifts out of aluminum or make you one out of some square tube.

    • @SplitBuilds

      Had to cover it up. Gotta have the sound deadening in place. My whole plan from the beginning was to put the Jack rules on it fixing the bottom side would’ve been way too much work for the outcome the armor plates are just that they’re just armor plates. Thanks for the input. Been nonstop all day.

      @Split Builds I do like the build. I enjoy the videos. Keep up the work. Can't wait to see the outcome.
      Also I understand that ratio for worth to reward. Rockers are a pain on the HMMWV.

    Du arbeitest sehr sauber aber die Höherlegung der Karosse ist sinnlos und zerstört den Charakter des Humvee 😢
