I like that too!

More details on that vertical stack? Daddy likez....daddy needz

Check for bind in the lever system. My passenger door didn't like being unlocked via the key. The inside latch worked but the key rod wasn't pushing the latch side of the lever system up. Closer inspection and the two parts that make up the lever system (that the rods attach to) was...

Now for you head-bangers ! LOL

ACK! And a front to boot. I bet that was fun. Yeah, I'm running that same tire, age, and mileage. <whistles> I better start looking myself....

Avoid the Michelin "may pops". Absolutely don't run them on the steer axel on pavement. Try and find GoodYears or another 395 (Continental, Pirelli, etc). Be sure to check the speed rating (a lot of these industrial tires are not rated over 50mph). What makes tires difficult to gauge is...

Sometimes it's helpful to add the fluid into the upper (shared) reservoir at the pump...then bleed air from the lower reservoir at the hand pump by working the pump. Repeat as needed.

Not denying that's the case, but it certainly wasn't the last time I spoke to them on the phone a couple years ago. The literally stated word-per-word that when I completed the conversion, to just let them know and include photos and estimated value, and they would underwrite it. Has their...

That's so odd. They literally told me that they would write it as a RV with no issue. I'll ask about it again come renewal time. They know it's military but I was very careful to never mention "off road" (full disclosure or not, that's one thing the industry frowns on). I've no loyalty to...

I'm under "former military vehicle" currently but when I asked about RV coverage Hagerty said "no problemo". I haven't finished the build and there's some question as to whether Texas will even register it as an RV (which won't matter, I'll just legally register it elsewhere under my LLC...

Colt lists the pump rebuild kit and links in his description: And here's the cab latch kit: https://www.amazon.com/LMTV-MTV-CAB-LOCK-SEAL/dp/B08SWMHZM5

Pretty common. Rebuild kit for the pump and might as well do the cab latch...

Bruce is good people. Yeah, you can slap them in front and rear. I think most don't do the front because it's a steer axle. There's tons of "locker" threads in there with a lot of good feedback.

And that leads to the next question (since he doesn't have a truck yet): Is the LMTV the right platform for you? If you want a truck that can do 70mph, with selectable lockers, maybe a Cummins....why not just buy that truck instead of doing axel swaps and engine swaps, etc, etc, etc. There...

Yeah, I just mic'ed the OEM one I pictured above. It's 7/64 and even that feels pretty thin. They sell the material in a number of sizes (even at HomeDepot). It's a flat surface-to-flat surface seal so it won't take a lot, but 3/16 would be a closer to OEM...

No air or e-lockers available. :(

This is what I'd use (1/16" closed cell rubber): EDIT: see below (get thicker) https://www.homedepot.com/p/Rubber-Cal-Closed-Cell-Sponge-Rubber-Neoprene-1-16-in-x-39-in-x-78-in-Black-Foam-Rubber-Sheet-02-128-0062/304363420#overlay

Take the lights off, scrape off the old gaskets, make or purchase new gaskets. reinstall lights. The last ones I found for sale were surplus and laughably about as much as the lights. I never checked with TruckLite. I'd make them. Just need a sheet of thin, pliable rubber that's weather...
