I don't have much difference in the ride quality on my A1R trucks. They are quieter without the bounce of the air bags and frankly it doesn't throw my drink around as much when driving. Generaldisorder has some good insight about the shocks (above). It's nature of the beast until you're willing...
I had one more that sold in July. A1R trucks are very few and far between, especially MTV (6x6) variants. There's a M1085A1R for sale on facebook market plate right now for $49,999.
It's an A1R so it has the heavier coil over suspension and the HIAB crane in place of the Grove crane. There must be a lot more to the HIAB since it's a direct point lift crane. Also, I'm getting fat. rofl
Took the M1084A1R out to get a scale/weight ticket to satisfy the State of Texas's new requirement for vehicles over 10,000 lbs to have a weight on their title. She clocked in at just over 28,000 lbs. That's a lot more than I was expecting. :oops:
I had this M1093A1R in the back of my motor pool for a while and a customer inquired about it. Fresh batteries and a PBC (push button controller) and it rolled out of its hole. Minor issues to tend to but a MTV with factory A/C. Egads! I want A/C in my truck now.
Repaired, painted, and took this M1089 beauty out for a QT drink. This has been my most challenging job yet due to the complexity up inside the frame and the multiple surfaces. It's a good truck and is for sale soon.
You should contact Doug at Memphis Equipment since he was your POC for the truck and the modifications. We here are just shooting in the dark based on basic operations of the solenoid. Who knows what they did to convert it.. :unsure:. If anything you can screw in the fuel shutoff solenoid and...
The SF-97 is a dead-end for you. Only the first buyer/recipient of the truck from the government can file for it and it's non-transferable.
You will need to file for a bonded title. I just googled "Michigan vehicle bonded title" and got this. It's a process but it will get you legal...
Picked up this Navy 520C loader, the step below our M10A/530C loaders. 92' year and still carries on the same design as our units. I can't wait to worker it and get some gravel laid out.
Ah yes, the hidden yet infamous noise suppression box. It's not an official MWO but the commo guys install them when truck need a clean feed for their radio equipment onboard. I've had 3 of these units swell internally and cause a truck to crank no start. Nice find and no they're not in the...
PDP - Power Distribution Panel ( inside the passenger dash board with relays and breakers).
You will need the Wabco toolbox to talk to the ABS. It's a COTS (commercial off the shelf) system so start with visually checking your sensor cables at the wheels, make sure your truck's voltages are...
