K I have no problem now importing custom models in.  Their not textured atm but I can figure that out.  
Main question is, when u put armor on a character it isnt really a model, just a skin.  It sunk my idea of attaching custom models to my armor pieces to show up like weapons.  Then I remembered that their is one armor piece that shows up a model, the head piece.  
I made my own helm model and changed its model link to IT1001 and imported my helm model to use model IT1001 but it doesnt show when i equip it.  It showed when i put it as a weapon on my hand but not on my equiped as a head piece.  I dropped it on the ground and it showed up as a helmet so idk.
Here's a picture of it on the ground.  Very simple with no texture.

*its alittle dark*
Any idea's?  I have its 0,0,0 point around the middle so it should be showing close to the head somewhere but it doesnt :|.
