    M1078 Fire Truck with eco hubs

    Personally I say you won’t lose enough off road capabilities to outweigh the benefits. More folks will chime in after a while.

    M1078 Fire Truck with eco hubs

    3.5 tons and 270 hp. Your ffs will be tempted to run wide open to scenes. The ECOs will keep your drivetrain in one piece.

    Wiring, Generator

    If you remove the cover on the voltage regulator you will see the ammeter shunt soldered directly to the connector. There was a MWO to eliminate the ammeter and replace it with a voltmeter. Pegged instruments means bad ground on panel.

    ABQIRONPIG IS BACK IN THE HOUSE!

    ABQIRONPIG IS BACK IN THE HOUSE!

    The consensus here is to use two group 31 batteries and put a 12 volt maintainer on each one, either a NOCO or Batteryminder. Hope you read up on all the predictive maintenance tasks you MUST do to avoid countless unavoidable powertrain problems.

    M35a2 front differential leaking

    Yes those are pinion seals, available from numerous sources. To flush, take the truck for a drive to get the milkshake good and agitated, then drain, then refill with diesel, then low speed drive, then drain and repeat if you still detect water.

    New (to me) M1152A1 - Questions!

    Seller did a pretty decent paint job on it. Oil pressure is fine. I would ask the seller what maintenance he did prior to changing oil etc that might have already been done.

    1996 LMTV 1078 cab has not power

    A lot of us just bypass the PPD, it is only there to protect all the electronics from someone doing a reverse polarity slave start. I hear you on the wifey, mine has come close a few times.

    M172A1.....Legal???

    Ramps NSN 3990-00-353-6354. They are heavy AF. I have multiple herniated disks from these damn things too. (not service related) Research into the NSN shows 423 lbs each.

    Turbo engine removal tool for pros or something better?

    That fixture looks kinda silly, why does it have 3 lifting eyes? Funny how the jarheads repurposed a shelter lifting sling (4 leg) to use with this funny fixture.
