    The data plate on the OP's truck was installed when the trucks went back to Sealy for reset some time in the late 2000's.

    In need of how to determine the correct year of a LMTV?

    Sure is wrong, the Sealy TX plant has been closed for 10 years now. They meant "03".

    Did I just buy a 2023 LMTV M1078A1 or not?

    Looks OK for the most part, only red flag I see is the dash is pulled, might be the start of some troubleshooting, or, if you are lucky, some cannibalization. Check your driveshaft phasing.

    M416 value

    If the floor is good it's worth $750. If the floor is swiss cheese, $300. Back in the day those sold out of Ft Hood for $300 ea at every live auction. Never more never less.

    NO Power to 1078A1 LMTV

    People here have jumped the relays permanently. Something to consider for diagnostics.

    NO Power to 1078A1 LMTV

    Your problem seems to be between the batteries and the disconnect solenoid. Suggest you use your multi meter or test light to see at what connection the voltage drops off. Sometimes there can be corrosion between the cable strands and the connector which is hard to diagnose.

    Axle Help

    Not my area of expertise. If, after flipping, both pinion flanges turn the same way to move the truck forward, you can use the M35 transfer.

    What facility is Springtown anyway?

    Axle Help

    Yes those are GMC axles and no you cannot use a M35 transfer case, the transfer needs to have reverse rotation on the front output.

    Axle Help

    Just making sure, “the early deuce” forum is for GMC G749 6x6 trucks, is that the running gear you have?

    Amount of oil draining through rear drive axle tube

    Right, if your truck is sitting level, no oil will come out from the differential reservoir.

    Trans adaptor for 6 cylinder chevy to jeep trans .

    That is probably a T90J transmission with a T18 transfer case, and is probably the Novak C3 kit that adapts the Chevy engine to the T90J transmission. See the Novak-adapt.com website.

    New to me M1008

    Zero concern about running with locked hubs. Most AWD military vehicles don’t have them anyway.
