    Picked up a triple axle Air Force trailer

    It is one heavily built trailer, I plan on using it to haul my MTV and maybe some equipment as needed. It’s pretty clean, but planning on scuffing and spraying tan to match the truck. Honestly surprised at how well it pulled. The helper springs for the ramps need a little work as well, but...

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    The transfer case is the yellow Dana that’s mounted to the frame of the truck but the pump is mounted to the top of the trucks transmission/transfer case. It shouldn’t be too big of a deal because it shouldn’t ever be subjected to a shock load. It should be pretty linear. The pump mount is all...

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    I have been working on building a water tender and making some changes on another, between mounting a pump to a transfer case to change the direction of the pump, but to also make it 2 speed… then have been working on a now finished interior kit and finalizing parts for a center console for the...

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    Have been working on upfitting my wildland rig for comfort and convenience. Working on a center console, built an interior and overhead console, carpeted it, and fabbed up a cab air ride system with more travel and some adjustability.

    Removing torque rods and v-bar

    I believe that I’m qualified to answer the question. I ended up using a 1” impact and 1” breaker bar to undo the nuts, a porta power to push/pull where neededand a 3 or 4 lb sledge, hitting the side of the housing with pressure applied while applying heat. There is no way around getting the...

    MK48 wheels

    Thread revival warning… what do you think about plugging the OEM valve stem hole and re-drill/machine something for a 24 bolt HMMWV wheel valve stem on the outside of the face of a HEMTT wheel? 🤷‍♂️

    New Arduino-based FMTV CTIS controller ROCKS!

    one axle weighs in at 11k, the other 2 are at 16k, it would have been nice to have the rear inflate higher than the front Ok, thank you

    New Arduino-based FMTV CTIS controller ROCKS!

    With this controller, is it able to control individual axle pressures?

    What are the manufacturers GAWR?

    At a certified CAT scale. The configuration of my truck is significantly different than it came from SnS so the current weight is somewhat irrelevant, just wondering what the axle itself is rated for

    What are the manufacturers GAWR?

    Specifically the front axle? I have a M1088 and the GAWR is 11,328, only 400# above the unloaded weight. I know all of the various models specify a different GAWR on the passenger door data plate and I’d imagine it would be at, or above the 13,416# that I have found on an early M-1089. Does...
