I have both with USAA, but it didn't seem like it would have mattered if I just had one type. It seemed like it just mattered that I was a member.

Tried the Progressive route "commercial vehicle for personal use" but they said they couldn't insure it. Mentioned if I had USAA then they might be able to. Talked to a USAA/Progressive agent (I have a USAA account) and they were able to push through the insurance with Progressive. Comprehensive...

Yep, got that all measured out. I may get a laser scanner and do the whole truck so I can have accurate dimensions for the CAD work. Plan on fully designing it on the computer as that's what I do for my work. If I do that, I'll make sure to make the files available.

Likely in my future.

Was from MWME, unsure if hubs were checked. Going over the truck some things are checked, other things a bit lacking in maintenance.

Driveshaft phasing is good, although can't be sure of proper of proper balancing.

New to the FMTV, never driven one before so I don't have a good baseline. Truck is 2007 A1R m1096 with 1800 miles. When on the highway when maintaining 50-55 I have what sounds like gear lash noise. Goes away completely on accel/decel. Do these trucks tend to make some noise from the hub gears...

Any way you could take a picture of this? I'm working on something similar and trying to work out the best path forward. I looked on your YouTube page and didn't see anything that reference this. Funny enough I found out I actually watched some of your videos about 10 years ago on a Kel-Tec RFB :)

Exactly what I plan to do, thanks!

What did you register yours as? Truck, Collectable, Former military, Hobbiest (street modified)?

Not sure at this point. However after digging into into the issue some more, looks like this may have been resolved be some very driven people. In 2009 they were revoking pinzgauer titles/plates and the law was changed to allow "any" military vehicle to be titled. Then they expanded what...

I am aware of the Montana/other state route but want to avoid that due to legalities. I've been trying to figure out how to do this in WI and it seems the only possible way is to get FMV tags, but those come with a whole host of restrictions. I was going to make a camper/RV out of it, but can't...

From the discussion here, seems these are better in every scenario that's been tried. Really makes me wonder why the gear reduction exists if direct drive results in better performance. Obviously there is half the torque in 1st gear but beyond that, seems the shifts would just be later to...

So is there a list of reputable places to buy trucks? I'm okay spending more not to have to deal with all this BS.

I'm interested in purchasing a set, could you please start a PM with me (low post count preventing).
