    Stretching a fuel tank ?

    Thanks, I have been looking but have not found one yet. Their is one on Ebay but its has been hit a little. I will keep looking but seems their made out of gold. That is why I was thinking I would just extend my tank. Just fire up the saw and my TIG and bend some metal. Thanks for the idea.

    Stretching a fuel tank ?

    Anybody try stretching a M1078 fuel tank by cutting it and adding a section? Maybe add a tank hanger to take the weight ? Was thinking 100 gallons would be good. What do you think ?

    LMTV air system dumping at purge valve

    I think you will be happy doing the upgrade. I am. It will give you more time to repair all the other stuff you have not found yet ?

    I'm not up on where the Army takes air from. Is it the RED line on the front and back to run the tools,like a lug gun ? Maybe that would be a good tap ?

    Bad drive shaft?

    Thanks,I will look around metro Phoenix. Would make thing easier. On my front shaft their must be 1/4" upward moment. The rear is not so bad, maybe 1/16". Didn't put a gauge on it but it is way to much. When I pushed up on the front one I went WHOA ! NOT GOOD !

    They have a major "cool" factor but ? That looks like $$$$ and for what ? I have done very little offroad driving but I did not think their was a shock problem. Looking forward to the testing.

    Might be time for a new project!? To sell or keep current truck? Your thoughts....

    From my experience you should start the prep work for the new build. ( you have been doing that in you head ) Lots of things to work out and do better. I have my semi/RV and still need to do the wood work to finish but the pull for the LMTV was to strong.Some day the right person will come...
