Yes, Ted's dog is nice, too—

While refurbishing our 2003 M1078A1 to prepare for our off road habitat our friend, Ted Wiborn, (@expeditionteamwiborn), came to visit us in the Texas hill country. Ted and I have had the opportunity to off road and hike a few times in Utah to some amazing places, so we decided to test the...

Justin Hamilton 830.896.0446 State Farm Kerrville

The FMV paperwork is for registering in the Former Military Vehicle sub-class under Antique vehicles in Texas. It will do nothing for you if you wish to regularly use your vehicle. For insurance we use State Farm for our not for hire regular use M1078, many folks also use progressive—

We have been camping in Padre Island National Seashore for years, usually near where I paused yesterday. Yesterday was my first visit all the way down, there are likely more folks there in the Spring. Love coming to Port Aransas and Mustang Island, too. We would enjoy joining up with some...

Took her down to the Port Mansfield Channel in Padre Island National Seashore. It was a great day on the beach, few people and none from about 40 klicks on down. She cruised on the beach in MODE and SAND, smoother in some respects than on the interstate to get here. 25 mile (the National...

Thank you. Good advice on the order. (We have a Victron 24v-12v 70a and 4awg to make all the connections. Planning to do 1 and 2 together soon. Mounting the Victron to the inside passenger kick plate will work well); and relay—

Here is the pin out for the CAT3126b ECM, not much here. The attached PDF may appear more clear. I haven't found fuel level or continuous air pressure in any J1708 or J1939 feeds as yet in our M1078A1. Still searching for the Allison 3070PT pin out, and so far Allison appears to be more...

So, if I may bring this question from another thread, (and yes I have watched rronmar youtube many times): So in an M1078A1 (>18550), over time? 1— one could simply disconnect the 12v feed from the LBCD to the PDP (TL80 TO X2); Adding a 24v-12v 70a between 24v bat (X4) and 12v bat (X2)...

Well that is shiny–

So in an M1078A1 (>18550), over time? 1— one could simply disconnect the 12v feed from the LBCD to the PDP (TL80 TO X2); Adding a 24v-12v 70a between 24v bat (X4) and 12v bat (X2); a— that would allow the factory alternator to essentially charge 24v at 100a as needed; 2— then...

Would you share which data points your Bluefire displays?

I agree EcoHubs with the 3.07's are too tall. I am enjoying watching @ramdough work—

Our M1078A1's brackets are hucked—

Excellent. So, the band on the shock will just slip back on? Did you print your own Derlin bushings or turn them out of blocks?

Installed new cab suspension in our M1078A1. Stuck with the factory 'knock off' from MME. It is a shame as ours look in good shape, held air, only the bushings appear to be bad. If I can figure out how to replace the internal shock bushing and find a concave donut bushing I'll rebuild and...

That sounds nice and likely will look good. In the spirit of this thread would it make sense to create a patch and switch box to take advantage of the different programing? Within the patch box you could reroute the wiring as needed and enable switching the ground and power routes to take...

Replaced the dash parking hand controlled valves. The lack of leaking right near the driver led us to find the engine fan solenoid was leaking, too. Now the front and rear air systems pressures are up while running and are holding for hours while sitting. Much less annoying buzzing—

All good. You all likely no better than I. I got 0 ohms for the 'G' and 'X' tests at the P110 connector to the CTIS ECU—

Ran out and checked resistance between 'F' (ground) and 'B', 'C', and 'R' (inflate, deflate and control) all 64ohms; between 'H' (power) and 'B', 'C', and 'R' (inflate, deflate and control) all 150ohms. @Lostchain what were you expecting? edit: l'll try that— re edit: my resistors are blown...
