Outdooraholic Humvee on Poison Spider 

Thank you very much! I hope you enjoy yours too!

I would love to take it up there! Alaska is the only state I haven’t been to yet and it’s on my bucket list. Thanks!

Thank you very much!

Thank you!

Thank you very much!

Thank you very much!

Thank you! I started testing it locally and then slowly built confidence before taking it on a trip like this.

Looked like a lot of fun

They were made for off road. It is where mine does its best work. But be warned…you will scratch it up and bang it up if you push it. The military guys have free parts. We have to pay for ours. Makes me timid sometimes but it is best when you let it rip!!!

Thank you Gil!

Thank you!

Thank you! Mines an 1123 too.

Thank you! Hopefully you find another way to get one and it doesn’t come to that, haha!

That would be awesome!

Thank you!

It was all the truck! The key is just being proficient with Brake Throttle Modulation.

Yes he did. But I tell you that the camera seems to take elevation out and it never looks as bad as it really is when you go back and look at it on camera. I was leaning in and out on my couch watching him because those weee some steep climbs.

@@dsmracer524I suck at brake modulation. It is so mentally backwards to stab the brake when you need throttle. But I’m getting better. In mud and snow I’m often in trouble by the time I realize I should have been applying the brake. I’ve gotten my truck serious buried due to driver error.

@@McSpeedAlaskanAdventures it takes some practice but once you figure it out it’s almost unstoppable.

@@dsmracer524 I agree - I've gone back and watched my videos and I can see where I have all four engaged - so I'm getting it right part of the time. But still just a brain twister when trying to remember to do it in the moment.

Oh wow!

Thanks! The bedrack is a Westin Overland rack for a Toyota Tacoma. I had to modify it by cutting 5” out of the length and 3” out of the width to make it fit. Eventually I’d like to move the spare tire to a Rhino swing out on an airlift bumper and mount a rooftop tent on the top of the rack. I don’t have any AC yet but am looking at options. Mine was never up-armored, so I didn’t have any holes to fill. Let me know if you have anymore questions!

@@dsmracer524 Amazing. Thank you for the response!

@@M1151A1 no problem!

Thank you! I fully Rhino lined the truck prior to installing the sliders. The sliders were also fully coated inside and out with truck bed coating prior to being installed. Other than that, they are right up against the body.

The body is aluminum. They can't rust.

Thanks! Aluminum radiator, High Output factory water pump, new thermostat, new hoses, and lots of coolant flushes. The bed rack is a Westin Overland rack for a Toyota Tacoma that I modified to fit.

Thank You!

@@louleone1032 no problem!

Thank you! I have the American Humvee A2 springs all around and cool spacers up front. It’s about 3” of lift up front and 1” in the rear.

If you have a turbo truck that has the factory body lift, you can fit 38's with no lift or changes whatsoever.

@@nothingtoseaheardammit Interesting, I didn't know that. I had always heard that 06 Alpha's had a body lift to fit the Duramax, but I didn't know that the body lift went back to all turbo'd trucks too. Thanks for sharing!

@Mr-Bogs not as much as the alphas. An inch max. Can't remember exactly...

Mine are the fiberglass doors from West Kentucky. They are pretty good but do rattle a lot. I’m still working on making them quieter.

@dsmracer524 Ok, thanks for the reply. I would imagine all the manufacturers have the dame issue...possibly.

I bought it on Amazon. It’s made for a Jeep and just required a bit of trimming to fit the Humvee.

Thank you! Tires are 38x13.5 Toyo Open Country MT’s and wheels are 18x9 ION 189’s. I am not sure on the offset though.

It's whats called "ball joint killer" offset. The only real wheel options that should be considered for the HMMWV and H1 are factory offset wheels that have the correct offset which loads the spindle bearings evenly inside the hub. Hope this gentleman has checked his spindle nuts.

@@nothingtoseaheardammit I have the BlueHummer locking spindle nuts and the newest AM General ball joints on all 4 corners.

Thank you! You don’t see many here either to be honest!

I had a leak once but the cause was a lose hub nut. I upgraded to the Blue Hummer locking hub for Mod Mafia nuts and haven’t had an issue since.

I have been thinking about it. With as stiff as the suspension is, I don’t think there will be much increase in body role.

I also installed softer springs …

@@mikei8957 me too, I have the American Humvee A2 Springs which are supposed to be 30% softer than the factory Springs but it’s still a stiff ride.

Thanks!

Tires are 38x13.5 Toyo Open Country MT mounted on 18x9 ION wheels. It has American Humvee A2 Springs (slight lift plus 30% lighter rate) all the way around and MME coil spacers in the front. So about 3” of lift in the front and 1” in the back.

I've either built or had someone build all my sliders and racks and stuff for my Humvees. It's built better and you can get exactly what you want. Any welder in your town can do amazing things. Take it home and paint it.

I painted it myself with Raptor liner and it’s held up great over the past 2 years!

No mistreatment; these trucks were designed for this and do it well!
