    That is what it was designed for but there was likely at least a 100% safety factor

    LMTV Air Conditioner

    I know several people who have used the 1st gen and been happy. Key to good cooling is insulating the cab. A study by NIS showed that the 2nd gen was 16K btu. I have not found info on the 1st gen but would not believe Red Dot specs

    MEP-802/803 fuel return improvements

    no need to take anything else off it is very easy to get to. replace all the hose, the short sections are just as likely to leak.

    LMTV M1078 Transmission oil confusion...please help!

    The truck has to be running to check the fluid. One level is automatically set and the other is by dipstick.

    LDS bellhousing into a deuce? Mounts?

    Just swap the flywheel housing from the LDT, it is by far the easiest way. And also swap the oil pan and pickup parts. You are not gonna find a 6 speed that is short enough to swap in without major relocation of transfer case.

    Power Steering Possibility?

    Take the fender off, box installation and pump installation then is pretty easy.

    Caiman MRAP wheels on a LMTV

    Has nothing to do with tires, the wheels have 3/8" runout!!

    Caiman MRAP wheels on a LMTV

    It is not about weight, it is about balancing. All the steel wheels I have seen have about 3/8" runout on the inside flange. Impossible to balance.
