    Original LMTV contract.

    You mean like the original spec'ed RFP for bids/prototypes? Or the actual gov contract?

    Fifty Buck Seats

    Yep. And if the gimpy bastards park too close, I've been know to twist off a plastic bumper or two while I back out ! That did actually happen once and when the lady could not produce any proof that she had reason to be in the handicap parking, I took some pics and said let's call the cops...

    Dry Flush Toilet (Laveo)

    I shied away from these a few years back only due to the cost of the refill bags (if they weren't veteran-owned and made in the USA I'd have China clone me the replacement cassette for half of what they charge). The "cassette" is really nothing more than the ring,. a long Mylar bag (which gets...

    Fifty Buck Seats

    Best I can tell they are in fact heated. Also have an electric motor in the base so I suspect powered. Of course, all the base will have to go away (these are not like the typical ones that I have seen other's use as these are a bit piacular the way they are put together). My goal is to keep...

    Fifty Buck Seats

    Corpus (actually 10 minutes out in Portland). Really nice elderly gent. Things like this I always eye as a scam, but he said they were just taking up room and wanted them gone. Again, had it not been local I would have passed (chances of scam increase dramatically when you can't touch...

    Fifty Buck Seats

    They're wired so I'll venture to say heated but I've not confirmed. The picture looked like the end of the armrest might be scuffed but it was just dust. I'm pleased either way. There is a fellow out of NV I think who sells Pacifica take outs for decent prices all the time but the shipping...

    Fifty Buck Seats

    I figured it was $50 each, but when he said come get both I did. It was local so too hard to pass up. 2020 takeoffs from a handicap conversion. He said they never were even sat in. Wasn't planning on going this route and they may end up in another project, but if I like them enough I'll fab...

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    I was doing a recovery and they swung a forklift around to the front and they guy was spreading the forks out to lift the front by the bump and I stopped them. Caged the breaks and rolled it out with my truck and a strap. Forklifts are the spawn of the devil !

    1088A1 Starter Problem

    He keeps providing all these amazing answers. We suspect that he may be the inventor. ;)

    Allison transmission issues on a 1078

    Suggestion: Find the "WTEC II Manual" . If it's not in the TM section here, Google it. Small pdf doc. Has all the codes and the how-to's....

    FMTV vs International Navistar Family

    I'm not sure but weren't those made at the Garland Texas plant? I know that their main op is in Chicago (which also btw ....moving to Texas) but I thought the MTVR stuff was done in Garland.

    Battery disconnect?

    I always do if welding on the truck. I've heard horror stories not limited to the LMTV.

    So Power Switching...

    I get ya. But the first video specifically mentions RVs. His whole series looks to be RV related material.

    I don't have the link that sold me on 24, but it was like this info...

    So Power Switching...

    No, there was something about 24v solar and batteries being more efficient than a 12v system. I think I had been looking into 12/24/48 and settled on 24v. I'll have to see if I saved any links.
