    SC Insurance for MTVR

    My MTVR got insured in CA by Haggerty. I called my Farmers agent and they said Farmers would not do it but they could do it through Haggerty if I paid the entire $240 for they year up front. Done.

    M1084A1 M1084 M977 MHC Grove Material Handling Crane Troubleshooting Problems

    I did some reading on various industrial boards related to Grove cranes and it seems that the Swing Brake is not fully disengaging. Circuit is probably not building enough pressure to release the brake. Now I just need to figure out what is leaking where.

    M1084A1 M1084 M977 MHC Grove Material Handling Crane Troubleshooting Problems

    Hello! New 2000 M1084A1 owner. I really need some help getting my Crane working. The Swing rotates about 3 degrees in either direction and then appears to bind.

    Yermo m1151 missing air filter

    If it has a bunch of blowby then you know the damage has been done. If not then you should be good to go. Vacuum everything out and enjoy.

    Hemi 5.7L Engine Swap In a Hmmwv

    The Hemi 5.7 has problems. They like to drop valve seats in around year 2005 gen cars. Newer 5.7's roller lifter bearings seize wiping out cam lobes. I would rethink that choice.

    Tatra MTVR Prototype M923A1 - Tatra 815 Frankenstein

    Geof, I would be very interested to learn more about the Tatra program and why it wasnt pursued. In my opinion nothing Oshkosh produced comes close to the mobility of a Tatra spine chassis. I love Tatra trucks and hope to get one to the states eventually. I own an MTV and MTVR and dont see them...

    This is why you check your halfshaft bolts.

    So what is the reason for this shearing issue? Bolts coming loose and joint clanking around on them till they shear? Threadlocker is not sufficient? Locking bolts are required?

    What does a GovPlanet, Armor stripped, M1165A1 weigh?

    Anyone know what is the weight of a typical stripped M1165A1 as is sits in the Govplanet Yard? No doors, complete hardtop roof/cabin. Just trying to gauge trailer weight and what kind of trailer capacity is required.
