    M1078 cracked block

    block repair will do nothing but add life to short life. Not sure how much.... bit of a crap shoot. Id be tossing money in savings account for replacement engine and keep eye on the block to watch cracks after pinning. IMHO plan on an engine that is easier to move closer to 300-330hb with out...

    LMTV self cancelling turn signal adjustment

    Am slowly aiming for expedition vehicle too. Just remember.... the bigger the wheel the easier to physically steer in difficult conidtions you may end up in off the beaten path. (leverage advantage) Also slower steer input.... so it is harder to over steer in knarly and or scary road...

    Lmtv/fmtv air/crane attachment behind cab

    Aluminum wheels

    did you ask if they could "get them"?? sometimes sales folk assume buyer want's "now" and don't offer to put in an order when they could (risks loosing commission to next sales person, who calls you when they arrive) . Ken may not have his sales folk on commission though

    Lmtv/fmtv air/crane attachment behind cab

    the main chunk can be used for base of mounting a Roll Over Protection bar. Something to consider with these tin foil cabs.

    Preferred engine oil for 3126b

    those bypass oil filters appear to be just cyclonic oil filters which are amazing. There is a few aftermarkets that operate on same "sorta" centrifuge spin theory. Say sorta because there is a few other cats in the bag that are involved beside just centrifical particle seperatoin
