    Great job. We all experience things dropping at one time during painting. I had a out of nowhere dust devil ruin a bunch of parts at one time. But that is one of the risks of painting outside. I have to go back to see if I missed a previous video to see what wheels and tires are on the back.
    Great install on the lights too. I put the Costco flat LED panel lights in mine. Such a improvement, but I need to add a few more.
    I might be able to find you a good used control arm if you cannot locate a new one reasonable.

      Absolutely! Try to find a control arm for sure! Passenger (right) front!

      @@SplitBuilds two of my sources for parts do not have them in stock. I will call Jack today from Jacks Government Surplus in Tucson today. He just received 3 parts HMMWVs in stock a week ago. I just have to convince him he does not need the control arms for the others he is prepping for sale. Also AM General has 25% off till the 24th with code Holiday25. But still that is $450 for a new one. I will let you know about Jacks today.

    Care to share a link for the lights? Not sure if you have an affiliate link but if you do I’d buy and get you your kickbacks

      I have no affiliation, I found them on Amazon here’s the link. I’ll put it in the description to.

    Hi great job, how did you get the tires to look like new? Thanks

    • @SplitBuilds
      @SplitBuilds  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Pressure wash and tire shine. As for the wheels I spray painted them

    9:13 Well it may look like the sun... the moment you look up will be like looking into a light saber; Much like meeting a BMW i3 or i8 face to face. Light will most likely be more blue, sleep quality will most likely go down, I have some pretty bad ass lights, and those appear to be good at first, however those new lights may or may not be a health hazard in the long run. It may be good for the quality of your videos though.

      Do you really say the led’s is a health hazard… do you live in Cali??

      @@SplitBuilds I do not say that the LEDs are a health hazard; even though I do question this. I live in Norway.

    Can you have that crack welded up, grind it smooth and then powder coat it?

    Too be honest, off all the control arms, these appear to be the weakest. In all likely hood, being the front one, you know they hit some crap with it. $450 seems to be lowest.

    Watched all of your videos...Lovely parts of Georgia you live in. What region? Tired of the DMV here and may move to a more friendly state with my M1123 and M1152. USMC 0842

      I live in Newnan Georgia,Southwest of Atlanta. Really nice areas around here and growing pretty fast. Georgia is easy to get the humvee titled on the road. Come on down! Semper Fi!

    Hey man, love the content! Would you be able to give some measurements of the frame (width, length, etc.) Doesn't need to be fancy, I just want to know if the frame would fit under my 1998 gmc k1500. I couldn't find the measurements of the frame anywhere online so it would be super helpful.

    • @SplitBuilds
      @SplitBuilds  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The center part of the frame is 34 inches wide, width, over the rear differential 31 inches, the front differential 30 inches and length bumper mount to bumper mount is 179 1/2”
