The big problem with the LML is the crap CP4 pump, but that can of course be changed. Yes the 2006 up LBZ had the 6 speed. I am keeping my eyes open for a 2006-2011 donor truck at this time. The only major issues with these are the way they dump raw fuel to clean the filter, the later LML and...

The problem with the LBZ is most donor truck have a 5 speed Allison

Yes.

Yep, IMHO they are much better at looking cool than actually performing off road.;)

Also of course if you have not, this is a good time to replace the fuel filter..

There is a tool in the 57K0267 tool kit that EVERYONE that owns a HMMWV should have. I have never tried that tool, I always go with bead locks, maybe someone can comment on that...

Nothing really wants to go anywhere, The best way I can describe it is to put you finger over a straw and pull it out of the glass, without something "moving" in the system nothing will come out of the filter. You of course should open it just before trying to bleed it and immediately close it...

I believe the Alpha used the 4L80E and the 242 but they had it tuned to under 300HP

I basically reduced the LMM to a LBZ, used a LBZ intake horn, oil fill pipe and the "other" stuff was simply removed.

Looking at the pictures of the LP5 it looks to have a much larger turbo, I had to reduce the height of the LMM to about the same overall height of the AC compressor, you are going to have your work cut out for you. It certainly does not look like anything near the 2" body lift I used is going to...

The 242 will not bolt up to the Allison and not likely that it would live long, besides the shift on the fly TC is really handy, it does mean more work and a third control module.

I refitted my 92 with a turbo GEP, it has no muffler or cat and it is anemic in power output and the only time I can tell it has a turbo is when it is idling, just a fluttering of the exhaust, it has never had any "whine" at all. But a plugged cat certainly would not help that crapfest of an...

Does that Texas Eastern compressor sta. rattle your house in Thomaston? That was one of my sites on and off for 37 years.

Let me see, if I go down to the auto parts store and ask for a $28 tool they will know what I am talking about, yes?? You give no actual information about the tool... Or the part number for the brake line

We had an old Constable that drove a 62 Bel-Air, he was a trip, did not like confrontation, if I blew past him on my motorcycle he would sometimes eventually get to wherever I was going and lecture me on the evils of speed. One time there were 6-8 of us girls and boys skinny dipping in Blue...

Maybe...

The "gaskets" are cheap enough but if you have a bead blaster you can make the old ones good as new.

If they are Poly you should use the proper (IIRC silicone) grease or they might be noisy.

Is there a such thing as Blue Hole anymore??, we used to go skinny dipping there allot. (yea there was not much to do there)

I bet things have changed over there. There was nothing but 25 miles from LH to Georgetown, I mean a farm house or two and that was it. There was also about 40 miles of nothing between LH and Austin, Ceder Park was nothing but a gravel "rest area" with a couple concrete tables and a few trees...
