    Lmtv m1081

    NAPA shows no availability of the valves or repair kits on any of the air brake systems made by Haldex for these trucks. What is plan "B" for those of us with air brake problems with these valves?

    LMTV air/brake problems

    NAPA has listings for all of the Haldex valves & repair kits, but no available stock anywhere according to my local NAPA store! What is plan "B" for those of us with an airbrake issue with these valves?

    Veritread poor service

    I used Veritread to ship my LMTV from Ft Bragg last month. They were very good about info & keeping me posted throughout the entire deal. The actual trucking company picked up the truck early & had it here @ work the next morning @ 06:15 as promised; a week earlier than I thought possible...

    Okay, tested the charging system after the repair to the reverse polarity relay. All is good & the system is charging as designed. Now back to the air leaks....

    Towing LMTV via Ibis bar

    I have both the Ibis tow bar & 6 of the square tube tow bars kits! You can carry the ibis around, but the square tube system weighs over 500 lbs, so it has to be assembled rather than just hooked up! Thanks for the pictures of the hookup!

    Need assistance Slow Deuce !

    If it backwards, there are some odd things going on with your truck. All of the Deuces I have ever driven have the transfer case in high when the lever is UP where you can see it near the seats & down to the floor in LOW range! Let us know what you find.............

    Lmtv m1081

    While I am @ it, can you get the brake caging bolts & nuts @ NAPA. Seems some soldier needed them more for another issue than me & took all 4 bolts & nuts off the rear axel & kept them before turning in the truck! Answer: Yes, NAPA has the caging tools (bolts) for $6.00 each..........10 minimum...

    Lmtv m1081

    I fixed the issue with the broken post, now there is the matter of electrically testing the unit to make sure it is working as designed! Seems like the Army mechanics liked to take stuff apart, but not put it back together on this truck!

    Lmtv m1081

    That is it! I found a picture of it, but no explanation as to what it does! The top threaded post broke off while trying to remove the nut since it wouldn't tighten down!

    Lmtv m1081

    What is the finned connection under the hydraulic cab lock that the alternator cable leads go to & the cables come from the battery? There are several posts that the leads are all bolted to. The reason I ask is that the truck I have had the 24v lead come loose @ some time & it wore the threads...

    At least you have a plate, @ some point, someone removed my plate & replaced it with a dogtag looking plate stamped with all the data!
