cab is now up so at starter solenoid easier. Solenoid (+) would be big heavy lug correct? and ground on starter.. would be one with strap going to chassis? Going at this by myself so will have to do some acrobatics to do as requested. Luckly been doing acrobatics majority of my life...

well after sitting four days after typical daily use.. now mine has done this but never turns starter long enough to "start" (acts like bad battery) Engine tries to move then starter stops. Like yours Plasa; on rare occasion this use to happen then would start. Happen more often if a batt...

what is the lithium relationship to it?

Alternator lithium charge controller?/isolator 24v/48v just came across this... Might be great deal guys-n-gals.... IMHO grab one now at this sale price...

maybe hit up @ckouba he has a M1088 .

did a search for 1088 images etc. came across this video at 1:39 there in the rectangle spot that is sunlit, between the chassis rails, right side, you see what I think is the cable going up. Hope this helps.

Actually yeah.... a new way to approach it. https://electrodacus.com/ thought ya'll might find this interesting

or you could have a CAT dealer de-tune it...... granted check to see if they can do that first; Im not sure if it is possible. Would be a good question for Adept Ape. If so.... would stand to assume an engine made with intent to operate at 465hp/1450FLbs that would last long time if de-tuned...

imho upgrade to a Cummins. There is some threads in here where that is discussed

13yr old tires..... eek.. that may well be your issue. at least their MVT's

ahhhhh. so one could pull their tach signal from there instead of half removing heater to get to that harness?

sounds about right... though the Cummins was a step up from the 3116 and the Brazos was in that 3116 era of the FMTV's right? Does that Cummins exceed the 3126's?

Used Ambulance box and your good to go.... significantly less expensive than expedition boxes and 50x stronger. oh.. and seat belts required in the rear. In mine all habitat seats will be niceish junkyard automotive with belts. Likely Jeep Wrangler rear seats for bench/booth seat and front...

IMHO dont put people you love in the cab. If your building a camper box.... built it stronger and put them in there. These cabs are tin-foil.

good input... answered part of my question of ..... "was one or all of its data of any value outside of trouble shooting?." Seems still though that maybe not via ICE but via pulling thru other means one or two things of data it puts out can be utilized. For example tach and more voltage...

Laptop not for any programming etc... just as a display of information to eye over at when something burps as your driving, use your laptop screen as tach, your 12v batt status as you mentioned etc. orrr... if truck farts and makes you jump into... oops.. pullover / stop driving.. then you...

how do you hook your port to your laptop on your truck? How did you determine what in the port on truck was producing a signal from, in order to have it give correct wave report for it?

that and any other things is my thought's one could have always plugged up to their old laptop. I got a few that could run Win 7 or ten... ex-LEO rugged type laptops.

confused..... the flat sided ring needed is not in the above kits? BTW- this helps me out too... I got one to rebuild too.

good starting point on what STE is and could do https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/yet-another-alternator-question.219746/post-2568914 Lots of folk are adding laptops/tablets anyway ... well the Adventure - Expedition Truck folk are... soooooo why not capitalize on this?? waist of time due...
