    New Arduino-based FMTV CTIS controller ROCKS!

    A review of the polyurethane bushing replacements / upgrade for FMTV sway bars

    I did not measure them unfortunately. All I did was flip the bushing around and drew a line between the two slits in the bushing, using a small metal ruler. Then I flipped the bushing back around. You can see the slits in the picture. This is mod would seem to be Caveman approved : )

    A review of the polyurethane bushing replacements / upgrade for FMTV sway bars

    Just wanted to do a quick review of the FMTV/MTV sway bar bushing upgrades available from Awesomeness/ Guido. The install was fairly easy on my M1088.

    1995 Stewart & Stevenson 1078: New Acquisition Need Input

    Honestly, avoid excessive hills, stresses, etc. Keep your speed 35 and under and use back roads if they are less demanding.

    1995 Stewart & Stevenson 1078: New Acquisition Need Input

    I would add that anything exposed to UV, like air hoses for the brakes, should be suspect. They get brittle. Not hard nor expensive to replace, there are just 1000's of them lol Get your wife involved.

    1995 Stewart & Stevenson 1078: New Acquisition Need Input

    Honestly, you're much better off to learn how to do the work yourself by educating yourself and buying a few tools and asking questions. Then you will know how to fix it in the future. Nothing is that hard, just tedious. Get it running and RUN down to the driveshaft shop to get the driveshafts...

    5 lights a flashing on CTIS-Interesting

    True, but these are occult leaks that might be missed if the hoses aren't separated.

    5 lights a flashing on CTIS-Interesting

    Doing a lot of research today. This popped up for the dreaded 5 light O flashing CTIS. https://www.logsa.army.mil/web2/archive/PS2018/792/792-14-15.pdf

    I've never seen my m1088 transmission cooler fans come on

    Anyone with an M1088 see their trans cooler fans come on? I don't tow, so maybe the temp has not gone up enough to trigger. Radiator gets hot. Maybe needs new relay or thermostat?
