    M1123 Gauge Cluster question

    So I found a photo online of the backside of an electronic speedo. It's starting to make a little sense now. There is only a cannon plug connection on the speedo, so the other splitters must be for lighting t'd into the other plugs? Grounds are easy. My confusion is...why is there 3 splitters?

    M1123 Gauge Cluster question

    So it looks like this is the speedo harness because the cannon plug is correct. There are many other grounds, plugs etc, with the numbers above that I can not find in any TM. Is there another harness from the electronic speedometer to this one?

    M1123 Gauge Cluster question

    Thank for the reply. I see all of those numbers in the diagram, but they are notated as different letters after the numbers. That harness is right next to this one. The harness that I am trying to figure out, has all of the letters and numbers that I mentioned above, and is aluminum shielded...

    M1123 Gauge Cluster question

    So Ive looked at every diagram I found in that TM and others, but can not seem to find the shielded harness that is disconnected behind the gauge cluster. Various numbers on the harness are 40V, 40U, 27U, 27V, 27W, and 58M. Am I just blind with the prints, or does anyone know what harness this...

    M1123 Gauge Cluster question

    Hello all. The information I am looking for is most likely in the TM's section, but I'm lost as to where. I have a 2016 M1123 that is missing the gauge cluster. I found a page from a manual that shows the plug numbers and where they go, but there is another thicker shielded cable with many...

    LMTV M1078 Transmission oil confusion...please help!

    I have the manual, and have followed it. The manual does not say the quantity within the transfer case. The dipstick showed full, but after draining all of the oil from all locations, I only had about 5 gallons. This is only about half of what it should have. The rear driveshaft is missing, but...

    LMTV M1078 Transmission oil confusion...please help!

    Thanks. I removed the transfer case first and was surprised at the limited amount of oil that drained. Being such a big cavity and much lower, I assumed more would drain. The video showed a full 5 gallon pail almost filed in real time.

    LMTV M1078 Transmission oil confusion...please help!

    Thanks Kieth! All the plugs in mine are installed. The video I watched, clearly showed removing the transfer case bottom plug, and many gallons draining.

    LMTV M1078 Transmission oil confusion...please help!

    That sounds logical, but it is the first plug to remove, and there is only one, at the lowest point bottom of the transfer case.

    LMTV M1078 Transmission oil confusion...please help!

    So I just received my M1078 from a DRMO in Hawaii, and all of the vehicles they sell are completely drained of fluid. I flew out there and temporarily got all the fluid up for shipment. My question is, Ive read the procedure to change the fluids, and even watched an informative video. The...

    M35A2 Cummins/Allison conversion....

    Drivetrain is from a 2005 4WD Dually. I have everything I would ever need for the conversion. Do you know if the cooling stack is an issue?

    M35A2 Cummins/Allison conversion....

    Computer and harness good to go. Are there any major obstacles I might run into? Motor mounts, possible floorboard trimming ok,,,,but will the stock large diameter fan and intercooler cooling stack fit? Thatsthe big question.

    M35A2 Cummins/Allison conversion....

    Helpful input needed.....Just got the M35 and in the process of Bobbing! I have a late model 24v Cummins/Allison drivetrain in my garage, and I'd like to install. Has anyone done this conversion, or one similar? I will be starting next week, as long as I don't hear that its impossible.....

    Towing question with M35.....

    I hear ya, but would I be able to get it up and out of a launch ramp? Is the low gear REALLY LOW? Basically what I'm trying to do is this. I want to get rid of my new Dodge Dually (too expensive) get an M35 for very short trips to the lake, and get a more econimical daily driver. Sounds like...

    Towing question with M35.....

    One last thing. I'm new to Duece's, but I'm not at all afraid of conversions and mods. Should I swap it with a Cummins/Auto. I have an 06 Dually drivetrain that needs a home too. Maybe I'll post another thread about that one. Hard to believe that a military truck rated at 2.5 times that of an...

    Towing question with M35.....

    I tow this boat from coast to coast with a standard 1 ton Dually. So a 2.5 ton M35 might have a problem with the weight? I've never had a ticket for driving too slow, and I don't want to start NOW! I wouldn't use it for long hauls, only short trips. Anyone have anything large they tow for...

    Towing question with M35.....

    OK, Id like to purchase an M35 and convert to Bobbed. Question is: How do they tow? I dont go far, but I tow a 20K LBS, 40Ft wide load boat. Can the Duece do it at freewat speeds (55)? Also, does it have enough low end torque to get this boat out of the water on a launch ramp? Any help will be...
