    What have you done to your 5 ton this week?

    Wes dropped this "green gal" off about 3 weeks ago and I've been working on her over my lunch breaks. New fuel lines, new lift pump, remounted all tires, etc.. waiting on a replacement cab cover and some other minor parts. She's very clean looking like a late 2010 rustproofing. Some of the MWO...

    Does anyone have a source for the bolts to install the soft top supports on an M1101 or M1102? I was able to find technical the technical specs through the NSN but two bolt suppliers were unable to help. 5305-00-914-6152

    M939 with tac4

    I'm going to make an educated guess that the MTVRs in this thread are either MTVR1s or 2nd generation proof of concept with the new style suspension. The reason I say this is I came across a 5TTR, the 1st generation prototype, to overhaul the M939 series truck and some M809 trucks to extend...

    Automotive Systems Terrain (CTIS ?)

    I don't know if anyone has tried it but that goes to an M35A3 so most likely no it will not work.

    GL Lost Surplus Contract

    Yeah that's slowly changing too. I came across an announcement on GSA's site a few months back saying GovPlanet was taking over some aspects of logistics of certain counties and areas. I'm trying to find the announcement page since the bookmarked link is broken (thanks to GSA's website design).

    GL Lost Surplus Contract

    Well crap.. they've become GL. I've been having worse or "more GL like" service quality since Richie Bros bought GP.

    M1078A1 - Crank no start

    That's a different board than my truck, mine's the newer "green board" says Suprman. My board also has a green LED on the board of some key relays and the start inhibit was one. I also tried swapping a few to make sure it wasn't a faulty as I've seen before. My concern here is that the same...

    M1078A1 - Crank no start

    Alright, the judge has spoken. Holt Cat took my ECM to their test machine and it wouldn't communicate so it's dead. It gave me the same error when trying to connect through the J1939 plug - "Failed to Communicate". They aren't aware of any alternatives except replacement at $1921.xx for a new...

    M1078A1 - Crank no start

    Watching some cat videos and looking up schematics shows wires 52, 53, and 70 are power which are all getting 24v up to the ECM. Is there something else I should be checking pin wise? I'll see if I can scope it out tomorrow before I hit the road. How do I access those relays? I did already pull...

    M1078A1 - Crank no start

    I picked up an M1078A1 that's been uncooperative to start. The POC at pickup said they couldn't get the truck to start but I noticed the battery disconnect switch was in the off position and was hoping that was the issue..but it's deeper than that. Attempting to slave start the LMTV off my...

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    BUMP! I got in my new-to-me M1078A1. I took a gamble on a non-runner from a local source. It came out of the 3-1 Assault Helicopter Battalion from Knox shows the log book. Last date was 06 June 16 so it's a fairly recent release from service. Even the annual service was due 4/13/17 which makes...

    TM For M1078A1 trouble shooting Ele?

    The thread was a year old and needed a bump as more A1 trucks in the public's hands now. A link to an operator's manual would be a start assuming it's not the A0 manuals. I know of said digital manual and hope it holds the key to my no- start issue.

    help on identifying military truck

    Pics! Pics! But yes, LSSV is the 3rd generation of the "CUCV" family. It's based on the 2500 HD Chevy build and exactly as you described. They're basically civilian trucks with a military twist and still prone to the CUCV electrical quirks that the family is known for. Killer trucks, I want one...

    Photo upload issues are back

    I have to support Valence on this one as I've mentioned this issue a while back but the solution was to "upload smaller photos". Anything more than 2 photos for me at a time, no matter the size, and it simply doesn't post to the up loader. This is a problem with SS and should be looked into.
