    1081 LMTV out of Ft Bragg...all/some used overseas?

    If a stateside LMTV is woodland camo it probably did not serve in AFG or IRQ. LMTVs that did go were painted tan by the unit that was deploying. Many of the trucks that did go to the desert ended up staying in theater due to cost of transporting them back and forth. The ones that stayed in...

    Ok, so what did I do wrong? please :)

    Gents, Thanks to all of you for 12vdc and 24vdc guidance. Now I know why I have been having trouble installing my Amber light. In addition I would have fried something during my CB install on my LMTV. I am planning on hooking up a converter, and a battery equalizer. Before reading this...

    LMTV Air Compressor pumping oil

    I had a charging issue with mine. During numerous trouble shooting routes I found the anomaly. I had a broke grounding wire on my voltage regulator. It broke about an inch away from the VR, and was hidden by the intact shrink wrap. I would say it was diagnostic brilliance on my part however...
