Blade fuses are far more reliable and easy to find than the circuit breakers that the LMTV came with...

The A/C compressor is powered off a different pulley by a V belt even if it has a serpentine belt.

Pretty sure the MRAP wheels won't work as the bolt pattern is different.

Use a crimp style lock nut, lock tite and Nord lock lock washer and they will never come loose.

All R134A systems run at similar pressures, it's a property of the fluid. CO2 systems run at 5-6 times the pressure of R134A. Older R12 systems operate at approx 15% lower pressures than 134a. Increased efficiency is a result of improved component design as is the usage of less refrigerant...

The answer to the OP's question depends highly on what he intends to do with the truck and how much he wants to spend. Some of the pre A1 trucks are fairly inexpensive, but will have more problems (rust, rot, and use etc). A1 trucks in my opinion are a better truck, you do get an electronic...

Coolant or water in the trans fluid is very bad. The adhesive that joins the friction material to the steel backing is water based...

I doubt it.

Your allison keypad could also be bad I've seen a number of them do very weird things that ceased when the pad was replaced.

I too appreciate the sheer size of the components parts of the LMTV, until I have to drop a transmission that weighs as much as a compact car.

I used 4 24F without mods to the battery tray and 6 24f's with modifications to the tray.

Just saw that episode today.. I wonder what became of it?

I've got new swtiches and the door parts will be here on the 11th

The LMTV condensers are all the same dimension.

I fairly sure they use an expansion block similar to what many auto manufactures used used in the 90's.

They are huge, at least twice if not 3 times the size of the LMTV condenser. A guy with a screen name of Kevin something used one but I don't think his was working well last I read.

3126 and C7 don't have that sensor.

Try jumping the transmission neutral safety relay. If that works, then the WTEC unit isn't sending a neutral signal to that relay or the wiring in between or the relay itself is forked.

Am I the only one that has the need to do this almost daily?

The largest hindrance to driving one is the fuel economy, or lack there of. Other than that they are a great vehicle to drive around town. You can see over the roofs of the 20 cars in front of you and if you get tired of driving through traffic, you can always drive over it! Regarding repairs...
