My buddy has this M1078.
Hes wanting my help to try to fix this.
Looking for your thoughts on the severity of the damage...whats missing...reasoning behind this...Is there a down and dirty few circuits to get it running to move it...etc.
Im going to start by downloading the TMs...
In that pic I see a notchy looking feature in the plug bottom side that would lead me to believe there is a locking device of some sort due to its safety critical status
Are you sure its aluminum, and not fiberglass?
I always liked the look of the extruded planks versus the WW2 looking wood seats mine came with.

Has anyone else noticed that a lot of the nut on bolt fasteners are sized so that you don't need two wrenches the same size?

Had to drill new holes to...
Im finally getting around to replacing my solargizer system.
The original was "de-milled" by cutting the wires just under the hood and removing the whole harness/box stuff.
Im wondering if anyone has pics of the units as they were installed originally? If there was a standard routing for the...
Did you ever figure out who, at the top, is driving the hate? Its got to be some career politician that's taking money from some adversely interested party. Its not like a prius full of prom girls got murdered by some evil war machine just back from afghanistan....is it?
I like the Avenger style but with the paddle latch. I thought about plywood, but I would prefer to just do it once out of aluminum.
Thanks for the info on the thickness. I may still go with thicker sheet in hopes of gaining rigidity without the riveted bracing and having a fold down filler...
Are you sure that's the official position at DMV HQ in Raleigh? I called our main office in Phoenix and was pleasantly surprised by the helpfulness of the first person I talked to there. Sent me a copy of the affidavit as you couldn't click to find it on their website yet.
Unlike the "deep...
While that is technically true, the army does require that its vehicles meet those standards anyhow. Its all spelled out in MIL-STD-1180B Safety Standards for Military Ground Vehicles.
