    Alternate Alternator Selection

    the Neihoff dual alt does not function well with both sides still being used... and keep in mind..... the 100 amp Niefoff is only 50-ish amp on 24 side.

    Speed sensor transfer case.

    yeah I knew Ted sadly went to wholesale. Am saddened more; hearing that they won't tell consumers who is a vendor that sells their surplus parts. I'll ask him how to find out.

    FMTV 12v Only Alterantor

    you would need a huge 12v alt ... aka.... like 300-400amp to equal a 150-200amp 24v alternator. Your better off to go to what others are doing and that is a commercial 150-200amp 24v alt and a 24v to 12v converter. math sucks but then again.... looking at Marketplace... High Output 12v alts...

    Cargo Cover Parking Garage

    You hit idea slightly that has been brewing in ma crazy head. Honestly thinking of adding some slip in points on external rack on my Jeep TJ to slide the poles ( into to plop my cargo cover around it from a M105 trailer... or my LMTV one w/home brewed poles if 105 too small. Thus when flat...

    Winter Radiator Cover mod idea

    Id say a string to pull shade down (and then tied off to side) may be better simply cause the mechanism/roller etc. would be up more away from road grime, mud etc. Maybe two shades? one at a height of about the top of the military one... so still sorta not in as much grime territory... and...

    LMTV 3126B oil pressure gauge sending unit

    can you point me to some terms to use to find a post where you've mentioned (think you have already) how your doing the alternator excite etc now that you removed the sender.

    LMTV 3126B oil pressure gauge sending unit

    did you remove oil pressure sender and thusly bypass the solenoids that operate from that sender or add the mechanical one as secondary thing orre?

    From fire truck to MTV

    If your going to add 24v winches then yeah for sure go back to 4 batts.. (and appropriate alternator). If not doing 24v. winches (or 12) then spend cost of two more batts on a diesel fired coolant heater system. That would more roundly serve your needs IMHO

    Rubber spring bolt camper Mount design.

    for future reference- captured spring vendor(s) / Part numbers used on M1079 is in the yellow spread parts sheet linked to a top of the FMTV forum. Rubber looked to me like it should work good while ago. My ambo box that came off of a Freighlinter uses rubber isolators. Sadly not really...
