My LMTV came with LED headlights... from Bragg. In the Colorado winter last year, it became obvious to me why there are heated variants. However, when looking at various sites, such as https://www.levineautoparts.com/militaryled.html , I'm confused which heated headlights are the correct...

The 20-3 TM says "NOTE: Discard fan clutch assembly PN 1090-08000-03 and replace with fan clutch assembly PN 1090-08000-01." I had the older -03 fan, and am replacing it with the newer -01 model. The TM also says "NOTE: Discard engine fan PN 4035-41393-74 and replace with engine fan PN...

Does anyone know the name or make of the round electrical connectors used in the FMTV? There are a couple I would like to replace, as well as a few things I would like to make for it using them. I've heard the name "Douglas Electrical Connectors" thrown around but couldn't find anything related...

What are the panels on the inside of your doors made of? I saw some on eBay that were made of aluminum. Mine are made of some kind of fiberboard / hardboard. I am thinking about trying to get some aluminum panels.

What do people carry for a lug wrench? Do they make big ones this size? Are the lugs actually metric or imperial, both seem to fit?

CLICK HERE TO SEE IT: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15EAAnbRXqh4LJuFsBxOPNgC-ICHeJdeFltiSmE5jjSc/edit?usp=sharing I've been maintaining my own parts reference spreadsheet, since it doesn't seem like the stickied one has been updated in many years. I made a copy and have been adding...

Does anyone have accurate dimensions / CAD of the troop seat bolts that hold the upright posts in place (#7 in the picture)? Alternatively, does anyone have one that is functional enough to come apart, that I could borrow/buy, to blueprint and have some made? My bolts need changing, but are...

Are the cables for a tachometer already in the dash, or is that part of the wiring harness for the winch panel? I looked at pictures of the wiring harness on eBay, and it didn't look like the tach wires were part of it, but I could be mistaken. Thanks!

One of my transmission cooler lines started leaking like a faucet today. Before I take it off (and really get myself up the creek), is there anything special about the o-rings that seal these? I have an SAE and metric o-ring kit - think there will be a replacement in there? Or are these...

Are there two temperature senders? When I start my LMTV, the water temperature warning light (and "STOP" light) are illuminated on the dash. However, the water temperature gauge seems to be working (after some driving, it will move up and read like 170°). I've looked through the wiring...

I'm wanting to create a bench seat to replace the middle seat of the LMTV. There is 31" between the driver and passenger seats, and I was wondering if anyone knew of a bench seat from another military vehicle that is that width (or very close)? It would be a lot easier to modify an existing...

I just thought I'd share this. One day I was looking at my cargo canvas top for the LMTV, folded in my garage next to my ULCANS camo net in its carry bag, and I noticed how they were basically the same size. I bought an extra ULCANS storage bag off eBay for $20 shipped, and it's the perfect...

Does anyone know what the proper grease fittings are for most of the things on the LMTV (e.g. spring hangers, drag link, axles pivots, etc.)? I was going to order some online, so I don't have any to compare to before ordering. Thanks!

Just finished swapping out my engine, with the cracked block, on the M1078, with a 290HP replacement from an M1088. It took 2-5 of us 5 full days (~9AM-8PM), plus 4 days after work (~4:30PM-9PM). It took a lot of work, but we'll be ready for the 4th of July parade tomorrow! It started right...

What is the proper orientation of the troop seat brackets that hold them in the up position, and the bungee? I can only seem to get them to slide between the rail and the upright seat in one orientation, but then the bungee is facing the outside? How do you get the bungee to hold the tube...

On the Cat 3116, there is an engine speed sensor (part 4) screwed into the driver's side of the bell housing (TM 9-2320-365-20-3, 7-38, Page 406). Two questions... 1.) Are replacements available? Is it a military or civilian part? 2.) What does it do? Is it only used for a tachometer...

What is the normal operation of the 3116 fan clutch? When the engine is cold/off, should it spin freely or be holding? Thanks!

I read a post once talking about being able to buy CARC from Sherwin-Williams commercial. I can't seem to find it again. Does anybody have more info on that (e.g. product line name, a paint part number, brand, etc.) that could get me going in the right direction? Thanks!

I'm going to be swapping out the engine in my M1078, because of the cracked block. The replacement engine is good, but also out of a mid-'90s truck. Is there anything I should go ahead and work on or replace, on the new engine, while it's out of the truck and easy to access? Seems like it...

I see lots of NSN-numbered "annual service kits" on eBay, but I don't see anything in the manuals that clearly lays out what annual service actually encompasses. What are all the seals and things in this kit for? Example kit:
