    alts not charging

    Look up the TM 9-2320-289-34 from the resource tab on this site. Figure E-11 has the wiring layout for the charging system. Do you still have it as a 12v/24volt system or has it been changed to a 12v/12v system? Trace the negative wire back which is red with white stripe running on the side...

    Love to see Diesel fuel at $3.15 a gallon again. Where I live its now $5.19 per gallon. I get about 12-14 mpg for my M1008 so I dont drive it more then maybe 10 miles a day now. God I would love to see $3.15 again or cheaper.

    Why not M998s at GL auctions????

    With so many people making items for after market use you would think someone would come up with an idea to make some kind of after market upgrade kits like a dash board adaptor, new wiring for lights and even a new seatbelt adaptor for use. Too bad that their is not some kind of after market...

    Why not M998s at GL auctions????

    And yet, we can have the civilian (UGLY) models on the road for daily use driving. Just doesn't make sence to destroy a good mv in which people like us would enjoy to own and drive.

    So, did your vehicle ever get shipped and delivered? And if so, what shipping company did you use.

    Why not M998s at GL auctions????

    I have always wondered how come we never see M998s for auctions on GL. Is their a reason for that? You can always see the military driving them in convoys on the highways but then you see the civilian models on the highway also. What reason doesnt GL sell M998 vehicles.

    Ft Meade GL M1008 I won--update-- its home

    Why is it that most if not all of the M1008/M1009 series seems to have rust always located on the hood. Is it because the hood is thinner metal or is it due to engine heat. Its a nice looking M1008 in the picture above. My hood seems to have the rust problem also.
