    M1088a1 disconnect switch relay problem

    hmmm.. that dont look good..... hope somewhere in there nothing got friend. LBCD= Load Balance Compensating Device [something like that] -eventually on A1 trucks the LBCD replaced the Rev. Polarity Box of the A0's. It has a few more tricks up it's sleeve compared to the RPBox. Think some...

    the more expensive way (compared to selling your 12v and buying a 24v) https://www.4x4offroadclinic.com.au/shop/recovery-parts-and-accessories/winch-accessories/winch-turbo-booster-box-12-volt-to-24-volt/ https://www.gigglepinaustralia.com.au/products/gigglepin-pro150-albright-winch-solenoid

    MV Addiction filled. Reis the Beast M1078A0 is born

    IMHO dont run your winch on 12v. Your asking for trouble in battery imbalance that is going to cost you way more money in the long run. Search the interwebs on how to run a 12v winch on 24v. Competitive offroaders do it cause it speeds up the line pull. Does not increase the pulling power...

    and check the box that says a person will follow the rules. that gets missed often. IOS, Android and/or the browser being used can affect where that final box or similar is the individual has to click about rule following.... may be beginning.. may be at end??? so scroll thru the rules...

    M1083A1 Electrical Maladies Starting at the Disconnect Switches

    ohhhhhh...... that is a damn good idea. Could cover them maybe right on the frame... iffffffff they pass air fast enough. though??? might need a manifold with multi holes covered with the gortex to keep up with the output???

    appears it got rejected cause an anti-spam thing was not checked off . (agreement to follow admin rules) Apply again and I will try to catch it coming thru the pike.

    M1083A1 Electrical Maladies Starting at the Disconnect Switches

    well this looks interesting. make a manafold out of PVC. Place front edge of bed near spare? Run all your vents to it. Put a couple of these on it ..... say on each capped end? https://automotivecustomlighting.com/store/goretex-vent-patchessheet/

    does not have to be Neihoff 24v. Just use a commercial 24v alt. anyway..... Jerrit now makes a whole kit. Kit also can include AC bracket. Believe it includes serpentine belt upgrade as well. it has been improved since this article...

    M1083A1 Electrical Maladies Starting at the Disconnect Switches

    honestly I've not understood why more offroad type folk have not gone to something like this. Dont know if they make these larger but guess one could put a few on a manifold to accommodate something larger than a jeep hub. https://trail-gear.com/creeper-breather-kit.html Or even a tank that...

    block cab air springs when offroading?

    Maybe am being to safety conscious...... don't mind risky-ish offroad travel..... been there / done that / will again just like to cover my bases..... especially in the FMTV's Tin foil cab.

    understand...... so its kinda a balance between- tools you have / dont have....... and vision to see what your doing. Real good point on the vision side of things. so sounds like it comes down too.... most folk have drills and have/can easily, get some step bits to put various large holes...

    block cab air springs when offroading?

    Seem to recall TM's say pinned in when off road..... while discussions in the FMTV forum on this topic tends to say unpinned off road for comfort. IMHO that would be true except maybe in the realm you hit on.... where a flick of cab to one side ....... say as you crest a dune at a slight angle...

    MV Addiction filled. Reis the Beast M1078A0 is born

    home brewed by an Arduino enthusiast; member from here. Far as I know its only been tested on A0 and A1 FMTV's. If the OEM FMTV CTIS controller works fine on M35A3's would reason that this would also work on them..... but that is just a guess.

    in a discussion with a machinist he mentioned...... why not just drill/mill a window (or two)? into the cover to measure thru instead.
