Accessories and Modifications
As it sits right now, there have been only a few modifications that I have added. Check out below to browse through them.
Hood Scoop: Not sure who the exact designer of this scoop is. It could be Rod Hall or Extreme Hummer. I purchased it from Ray Crawford at Lone Star Hummer.
Stinger Light Bar This is another item that I purchased through Lone Star Hummer. I love the looks and functionality of this bar. The one thing that I believe needs improvement is the area where it actually bolts to the gutter.
Look here: and you'll notice that there is only one nut to tighten and hold on. There needs to be another bolt to squeeze the bracket to the bar. The bracket has a tendency to slip off the gutter.
I made a simple but effective modification to the bar and now it clamps to the gutter much better.
Lights What red-blooded, four wheel drive enthusiast doesn't like lights? I know I do, and my buddies will vouch for that. I have a tendency to "light them up" when I pass them on the road. I wanted to make sure that the ultimate vehicle has a full compliment of lights to fit any need.
Wiring Lights I've received a few inquiries on how I wired the lights on my roof rack and light bar. Here are a few photos that might help solve the mystery. BTW: Thanks to Dyer electronics for wiring these lights for me.
- Let's start at the rear. There are two 35W tractor lights connected to the roof rack.
- The wire is inserted into looms and then fed into one of the square tubing that runs the length of the rack.
- The wire is met at the other end of the square tube and placed in a loom and then wire-tied to the rack to be directed toward the rain gutter.
- The wire is run through the gutter and then connects up with the Stinger light bar.
- Once the wire is on the light bar, it is joined up with all six of the lights on the light bar and fed into the t-bar on the center column of the windshield.
- There are four switches used to control all eight lights. I had them mounted on the CD changer case because I just couldn't bring myself to cut holes into the doghouse.
