    Bought a M915 impulsively and need advice

    Looks like you have the brown or tan wire going to minus, if that is your 12 volt feed, it needs to go to 12 volts. Suggest you be 100% certain of your connections lest you smoke a bunch of stuff.

    M35A2 Generator

    That would be my suggestion. They are one of very few outfits that deal with these old 60 amp generators.

    Identifying cut wires under dash - M1165A1 REV

    Sorry nope there are plenty more cut wires. Won't be too hard to figure out, these trucks are not too complicated. You will have wiring not included in any diagrams, that being the compressor and the IR light circuit specific to GMVs.

    M35A2 Generator

    That is a Prestolite 5717244. Erik's Surplus has regulators for it.

    Identifying cut wires under dash - M1165A1 REV

    Do you see the turn signal controller in other pics? That could be one cut bundle.

    M1081A1 won’t shut off

    I would start by unplugging the under cab switch panel to eliminate it from being a cause. I think that can be done.

    M1081A1 won’t shut off

    You are saying when you turn off the ignition switch, absolutely nothing happens? Did someone flip some of the switches under the cab? What specifically does “panel is Christmas lighting” mean? Flashing on and off? Every idiot light lit?

    Can we put these in the TM section please?

    Rod Hall Suspension Operation & Maintenance

    Nice to see these WB3s being saved for what they are. The 1025A2 GMVs that came out years ago for the most part ended up neutered or worse.

    Rod Hall Suspension Operation & Maintenance

    Oh it will ride like crap, the suspension doesn't flex at all when unloaded. Springs are the issue, lots of threads on here about spring replacements with less rate. The Thomas air compressor is not to complicated, there is a switch on the dash for it and the end of the hose attaches where...

    Rod Hall Suspension Operation & Maintenance

    Not that I am aware of. Is yours one of the OG M1025A2s or one of these magical WB3s that we are seeing now?

    M8 Grayhound project?

    The parts you mentioned are EXTREMELY hard to find. If at all. Try inquiring on G503. Not much armor discussion here.

    Cab Lift Problem and finding Hydraulic Reservoir on 1994 M1078

    Slobbering pump vent means it’s time for an overhaul. I’ve had ATF in service for 12 years now. Seems to be ok.

    FMTV M1078A0. Transmission Swaps

    That helps. The factory changeover from WTEC 2 to WTEC 3 happened around January 1998. So that is the difference you are challenged with. I would NOT change transmission internals. I would upgrade the harness and controller and VIM. Rumor has it there was a kit to install a 3 transmission...

    FMTV M1078A0. Transmission Swaps

    What year model truck is the blown transmission out of and what year model is the rolled transmission out of?

    Tire Balancing

    I had a 11.00-20 NDCC that did this too. One day it blew out into a million pieces at 55 mph. I would not use that tire for anything other than trails.

    Tire Balancing

    Suggest you dismount the tire and look for belt separation or defects. This is unusual.

    Piston assessment

    I don't see anything that stands out as cyl wall gouges. I would run it.
