    Are you going to give us a hint as to what "big stuff" is?

    M1078 - M1083 Cab Air Suspension Bags/

    My springs (shocks actually) inside the air bags were okay. Those were also not available by themselves, so I was happy when we took it apart and found the springs were still good. And of course, when the government spends money, it's not always because it makes sense LOL.

    M1078 - M1083 Cab Air Suspension Bags/

    Just to throw in my 2 cents. I just replaced the driver side airbag. Keep in mind, even though they are different sides, the airbag itself is the same either way. Colt has a great install video on his YouTube channel replacing his. I used the powerpacker airbags that General Disorder listed...

    Mav’s M1088A1 Conversion

    I have not done one myself, but when I was researching prior to my truck arriving, I found several places that have kits for rebuilding the hand pump. That place that starts with an e and ends with a y had some. I think if memory serves me its 3-4 O-rings, one of which I think is cupped and may...

    New Dash Layout in the works……

    Looks like a fabulous job and as if done at the factory. One question, where did you source all of the extra switches. They look identical to the factory switches. Only place I could find them was overseas and shipping did not make it conducive to a reasonable purchase.

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    So the burning question now is this. Do I try and find someone with a tan top who needs a camo top and trade? Or do I paint the truck to match the top?

    Wire loom tape?

    wow....I can see now how it has some uses in the automotive side, especially where wire passes through clamps or metal holes (like a firewall). I guess I will need to put some of this up for sale as I have more than a lifetimes supply.

    CAIMAN MRAP LED HEADLAMP UPGRADE ISSUE

    LED headlamps can be tricky as the +/- has to be put on correctly or they will not function properly. I would use a voltmeter to identify the +/- leads. Don't assume the military numbers are correctly labeled. When I changed to LED on my M1078 I had some issues just like you describe. I was...
