Does anyone know the weight of the 1167 or the 1151 REV trucks? I am referring to the weight of their configuration post demil process.
Govplanet is using the curb weight of the truck as listed on the data plate WITH the armor but that is not how the truck is being released to us. I would...
I am hearing many people speak about the large 400 Amp alternators in the newer trucks and that they are so large / heavy that they will eventually damage the harness for the truck and recommend removing it and swapping it with the 200 Amp alternator. What is the group's thoughts / experience...
My understanding is that the Turbo trucks have a 1-2 inch body lift to accommodate the turbo assembly on the 6.5 engine. It seems apparent from what can only be considered a closeout panel on the rear left and right sides of the truck between the body and the airlift bumper. Can someone confirm...

Very eye opening.
Lol... What he said.
And.... Once you understand them and get yours the way you want it. Guess what? You'll want another one. Lol. It gets in your blood.
Plus, what are you going to do with all of that HMMWV knowledge you have acquired.
Good luck and Have fun.
The check valves are before the lift pump in the fuel feed and there is no cost to deleting them, other than a few inches of fuel tube from the parts store and some clamps. That's where I would start if I were you before replacing the lift pump IF you've always had this problem. Otherwise, I...
Ok, turns out I have 3 of the 4 straps. I will give those to you. They are a little rough. It includes the buckles and the hooks so you can see how it's setup.
But if you want the hooks and cross bar for the lift gate I will have to sell you those because I will have to take it off my spare...
I would suggest removing the check valves at the right rear of the truck near the fuel tank. I would do that before any other troubleshooting. It worked for me and I hope it works for you.
