    Commercial license required for the MTVR?

    I forgot to mention it but that is what I found after asking Utah DMV and Highway Patrol. DMV was not so sure, but HP told me a Class B is required.

    What have you done to your MTVR today?

    I finished my roof rack/LED light bar frame. Now I need to mount and wire the LED lights. I am also going to add a flat plate of steel for antennas. I have my Ham license and I want to put a few other antennas there too. It is going to take me awhile to get the rest done because it is really...

    Commercial license required for the MTVR?

    I have done a lot of research on this and although the laws vary from state to state, there are Federal laws that say anything over 26,000 GVWR a CDL is required. So if you comply with your state laws but then drive across a state border, it is possible that you could be pulled over by a HP...

    What have you done to your MTVR today?

    I put on some Angle Iron so I can mount some LED lights because the headlights are worthless. I do not want to drill any new holes in my truck because I want it to remain as "original" as possible. So I used the holes for the weapons kit to bolt my Angle Iron on. I plan to put some additional...

    MTVR engine ECM

    Efituned, I wonder if the microprocessor is really not available. I know many places to get old outdated parts and my brother is an electrical engineer at Texas Instruments. Well, he was until he retired. I bet we could find the part. It may be an issue of not being able to replace the...

    Securing your MTVR? anyone installing locks? ignition keys?

    So I was looking through photos of Marines and their 7 Tons (my favorite thing to do) and I noticed in one photo how their secure the cab of their trucks. They just use a chain and a lock. The chain should be over 28 inches long. I recommend a lock instead of the twig I used. I would not...

    MTVR engine ECM

    A little bit off topic but what happened to all the other non runners that I assume were purchased as parts trucks? Someone should have a non runner that they could sell the parts off of.

    Changing axle hub oil

    I watched MAdams's video about changing the axle hub oil and I saw he had water in his. I got worried so I thought I had better change my hub oil too. I really just wanted to see what was in there. Not water I hope! Well, the good news is no water. The bad news is that all 6 hubs had some...

    7 Ton cargo cover and hardware

    So I was playing around with the bolt for the cargo bed seats and I found out the correct size for the seat to bed side is 3/8 of an inch. I bought a few pins with the retainer and so now I can take the seats off without tools. Of course, if you need room in the bed, you can fold up the seats to...

    MK23 PTO installation?

    I am sure it is possible because the Wrecker and the Dump versions have the PTO. They use the PTO to drive a hydraulic pump. I think I have even seen the PTO kit for sale somewhere.
