Flexseal, etc. Don't waste money on an OEM seal (they suck anyway and eventually leak) Any luck diddling with the glad hands? You have another controller in the other truck? Hose at actuator or cut/crimped/pinched somewhere by mechanics? Closed system with a vent hose at the back of the...

Wasn't there a bulletin about changing to a locknut or something?

Thanks Yeah, the TB within that second link is the one I have from 1990. It doesn't include our trucks.

Does anyone have the modern TB for camo paint jobs? The only one I have is up to 1990 and does not include our trucks.

Good question. If anyone is sitting on them (pun) they sure are keeping them under wraps. I see a few odd bits across fleeBay but random. I'm thinking of just peeling mine off and have one of the local upholstery shops make them back up up. It's bound to be cheaper.

Watching because I'm looking to add AC in the Spring.

Well after GP "lost" my BAPU (after 7 freight pickup attempts over three weeks and then took another 5 weeks to refund my money), I purchased (from *another* auction house) a surplus Yanmar LV100 (same engine) genset with a bad power head. It ran flawlessly and I finally got around to ordering...

I guess that there is no way of telling what the BTU's were for the Gen1 and Gen2 kits. I see a lot of people stating that 33000 btu are ideal for an LMTV, but what about a well insulated LMTV with tinted windows, etc. That number just seems excessive when the HMMWV ac units were developed to...

True, but ventilated seats are pretty common. Only time I road in some was a Ford King Ranch Edition p/u, but they were nice.

Those are awesome seats but my little legs would dangle. LOL Given that the OEM seats are below the engine cowl, I'm not certain that I could reach the pedals if the seat were as high as the cowling. But air-rides would be pretty far up there. Would be nice, though (if I had human sized...

Actually, yes there are. I've seen off-road cars with airflow from a pumper hooked up. I've seen some cheesy looking slip-on kits with little fans (seemed like a quite uncomfortable design). And I've seen some very elaborate ventilation systems.

Yes. Well, sort of. I have a revision for the A1 thru 2003. Unfortunately, I think it deals mostly with the 3126 implementations and not the later C7 but I have yet to do more than scan a few .pdf files. It must be installed due to the search software and how it hotlinks images and diagrams...

Normal. My 2008 A1R does the same. When I got my first truck the previous owner told me to 1) always be at a stop, 2) never shift directly between D and R (proper operation is D>N>R , R>N>D). I've always been in a habit of that, but still noticed that my new truck does in fact hold on it's...

Agreed. The size requirement of the evaporator (one reason the Gen1 AC units fell somewhat short of comfortable for many) is larger than a auto or pickup. But the LMTV requirements are not any larger than most highway semi trucks, so I use that as a basis. The HMMWV evap is big (huge) but...

And window tint helps quite a bit...

If you really wanted to get fancy you could build the sheet metal cabinet for a Gen3 and slap the existing heater in there as well as the guts from tn HMMWV blower/evap unit. A few plastic vents off FleeBay and BAM ! A DIY Gen3 for around $1000 total for entire system. Hmmmm

Someone needs to post the bracket design in CAD format. Any fab shop could make one up. If I get a chance before my other truck sells, I'll pull the bracket and do just that. I'll also document the simple process of modding a generic Red Dot bracket found from any parts source. I'm sorry...
