    Ah ok. Sorry I wasn't getting it until your detailed description. Now it makes sense. I will see if one of the -20's covers the adjustment as well. Thank you sir.

    LMTV Air Conditioner AC Main Unit Gen1 and Gen2 Details

    Quick update... I wired up the additional 24v power source for the Gen2 AC. I didn't want to purchase a $300 crimp tool for the military grade power connectors so I just ordered waterproof 2 wire connectors from Amazon and soldered it on. Tapped power from the PDS. The aux power is used to power...

    Wehring LMTV Mods

    The Detroit TruTrac is a friggin' AWESOME limited slip. Geared, clutchless and if you practice you can have a wheel in the air and use the brake to move the wheel with traction. I have had several of them in old Chevy trucks and they work fantastic and don't have any of the bad manners of a...

    throttle cable adjustment

    I may just be slow on this subject but I am still not understanding the correct way to adjust the throttle linkage with the two nuts. Could someone help me out and explain it like your talking to a 6 year old? Just not getting it on this adjustment. Thanks! OD

    1997 m-1078, two empty plugs behind the heater console?

    mkcoen, LOL you just don't cut me any slack! heh, I am trying to make a few bucks with these AC parts just to feed the LMTV habit. I have a full time job so I can't dedicate a ton of time to a side business. I don't want to be one of "those" guys that doesn't share information or ideas so that...

    LMTV - Let's add Lights and Power to The Troop Driver's Warning Switch

    Now hang on here folks... ;) If you wanted to actually power the box from the cab connector you don't need to do that. You can provide power with what comes with your truck stock and just tap the power wire going to the alert switch. its already 24v and if you do what I did and reuse the...
