Not to take away from the OP, but I ended up making a video going over the FMTV bed cover & troop seats. Going to share for anyone else that finds themselves in this post looking for information down the road.

Not being rude, but I'd be more worried about having the truck where you lived legally before the odometer. CA needs DPF on all diesel highway vehicles now, with only a few exceptions. Miles really isn't relevant anyways. You buying it and driving it across the country is more miles than it's...

Seafoam is good stuff! It's already in the fuel tank and crank case, along with ATF. Mentally, I'm prepared to just tear it down because I have everything except the head gasket at this point. I also want to learn how to do it, as a good chunk of the business I'm attempting to build up has to...

Well yeah, these trucks had the outlines for their designs made in the late 80's. Most interstates in the US were 55mph still. Not comparable to vehicles 30 years newer.

I saw that thread with the mecanical gauge & though about it. I didn't however see that other say their engines run as low as 20psi after it was warm. I swear that my 802A's all stay up around 40psi even after days straight of running under 80% load. Maybe before pulling it apart, I will just...

I didn't get to say this much in the video because I tried it after all the recording was done... but it is above somewhere. I ran it to the point the oil pressure was so low I didn't want to cause other damage. Could I keep cycling it like that? Sure. I'd say in total, it ran for 1-1.5 hours...

I ended up moving this one onto a M116A3 trailer. Going to clean it all up a bit & complete to trailer kit, covert the trailer to 12v, and list it for sale like that I think. Been dragging my feet with everything else going on. Market is kind of flooded with the people buying them & putting the...

I have a unit that I am parting out soon, and a lot already extra. Keep on eye on my eBay store at the link below or send me a message directly.

It probably had to do with the fringe end of requirements. Such as a truck at fully loaded capacity, fully occupied, their gear, turret with M2, ammo, at max incline, highest elevation, dead stop start. Basically, worst case... being able to do what it was supposed too. With the EcoHub, it...

I finally painted it. All ready to sell! I used CARC tan substitute, replaced the door seals, and used my new stencil kit that I got from @Evil Dr. Porkchop The batteries in there are new now, not the older ones the came with it as well.

It behind a Jeep would be a lot, LMTV would be nothing. I'd be pulling mine with a Super Duty. Weight isn't the issue, it's all the wind it would be catching, but you never know. Maybe once it is on there, finding a way to lower it a bit my prove helpful.

I have not yet, but I have settled on fabricating brackets that come off the main trailer frame & line up wit the existing mounting holes of the shelter like the mounting kit to the HMMWV used. Figured this is where the weight is meant to be beared by the shelter so it makes sense. Then, I am...

I will message you directly, I may have one for you.

I added some already. Didn't say it explicitly, but I was hoping that would do the trick in Post #11. I didn't run it with only ATF though. Maybe that would do the trick. Might be worth a try before ripping it apart.

I had one that I forgot about, turns out. Got it for testing the Yanmar L-series motors. I still need to figure out an adapter. Ahh, I'm getting to the point to where I forget tools that I have...

Everyone, I have various seal kits for the FMTV's available. I put them together since they didn't seem to be readily out there & I know people needed them. CTIS Wheel Valve O-ring Kit $10.00 shipped CTIS Seal Washer Kits (MTV & LMTV) $12.00 & $16.00 each respectively shipped I have...

Added some things to the main post.
