    M1088 with 4 (Four) leads into the battery box

    Typically, if they were laid in order where they came off... Starting at 2:00 (inboard left) will be the 2x 24v. The 11:00 (inboard right) will be the 12v. The 5:00 (outboard right) would be the ground.

    odd ball whistle on 1078 ?

    Truck porn. Sounds like it started just prior to the dump valve releasing? If replicable, I'd start there.

    Moving my Transmission cooler

    Good stuff here. I've got a big fan cooler that I intend to stuff into the back frame someday. Waiting until I get the box off to attempt it, but I'm going to start measuring my runs for lines and fab my brackets up.

    Yeah, I see now that you're talking about a post from last year. I was referring to the most recent video in the thread. My bad.

    WHO' S A FULL TIME LMTV OVERLANDER, ANY OUT THERE?

    You do know that the guy where talking about here built this truck by hand from the ground up, right? While he holds down a real job.

    WHO' S A FULL TIME LMTV OVERLANDER, ANY OUT THERE?

    Yeah, I saw where he had crashed earlier in the month. Sucks as they were just getting into the maiden voyage. btw: if you've not seen how he made his slideouts, you should check it out...

    Anyone ever use Duplicolor vinyl paint?

    New owner of a M 1084

    Good looking truck (and dawg) ! I modified one of those folding dog ramps my neighbor gave me to attach to the toolbox/step. Then I eventually added some folding feet to the ground end to reduce the angle of incline. I still need to add some carpet or something as my girl can't dig her nails...

    Anyone ever use Duplicolor vinyl paint?

    I thought about you the other day. I was just finishing getting setup in the sand and two very definite college aged "10's" came over to look at the truck. I didn't have my phone handy at the time, and knew that I had failed my mission when they never strolled back over to ask for a ride. ;)

    need electric schematic for M1084 A0

    I was thinking a simple 24v to 12v step down would do the job. I guess price would be determined by how many amps you needed for that run. https://www.amazon.com/EPBOWPT-Converter-Regulator-Voltage-Transformer/dp/B07V6X6L89 They appear to be about $10 for every 10amps.

    need electric schematic for M1084 A0

    Example: "Refurbished" LMTV dual voltage alt on BEay = $2000 New N1307 = $300 Step down= $10

    need electric schematic for M1084 A0

    Good time to slap a 200-300amp 24v alt on there. And then a step down for the 12v. Be a crap-ton cheaper than a used surplus 12/24v dual voltage. Assuming that the alt is the issue. There are tons of HD high-output alts at there in the civilian/commercial world. Here are some ideas on what...
