    LMTV CTIS Parts

    The part that sticks up and has a screw head in the center is a quick release valve so you can flatten the tire if you need to. You can replace the whole assembly with one that does not have that valve. I cant see where it broke off from your pics. Post some of the wheel. There are 2 different...

    JW Speaker LED headlight question...

    Issue on newer PLS trucks I believe. I have them on my humvee. The identical Speaker civ versions are 12/24 so I would think the mil ones would be also. I think they are a bit ugly to look at but have a good useable beam spread for driving. I have noticed that unlike my trucklite ones, when you...

    BMY wrecker power divider

    There is a cab lever that engages the driveshaft that runs the wrecker body hydraulic pump. I believe its a special transfer case.

    LMTV and Deep Water Fording

    It will spin a bit but should not be running. It's loud when running you can't mistake it. The assembly spinning with the fan off will cause the fan to spin a bit.

    LMTV and Deep Water Fording

    Going into water you should have the plug in and fan off. The plug should not be left in after leaving the water though. Fan switched off it will not spin. The fan only comes on with a temp sender its not always on.

    LMTV and Deep Water Fording

    As soon as the water is higher than the air intake stack then they are done. There was a 1083a1 sold off in PA last year that had been fully submerged. Maybe one of the trucks in the vid.

    Can a PPV be Deleted on a M939?

    When I install accessories like an air ride seat I use a single in-out pressure protection valve. One possibility would be to eliminate the original style ppv and in its place have air come straight thru for braking while branching off to a single ppv for accessories. Protection would be the...

    Beacon is 12v there is a relay for it in the relay breaker panel controlled by the dash switch.

    LMTV and Deep Water Fording

    The dash switch will keep the fan from coming on. Designed for use in water where the water flow is expected to provide the cooling. There are vids online of LMTVs driving thru water until the intake went under and they stalled out. The electrical is very prone to corrosion so going under water...

    Can a PPV be Deleted on a M939?

    It's there for a good reason. If air pressure is low it shuts off accessories so critical air pressure is routed to the brakes where it's needed.

    Did you make sure you are not just low on fluid?

    M1078 fmtv ctis

    The wheel valves and hub seals are the most problematic of the system. I believe they were intended to be replaced at certain intervals. The first gen ctis on the m939a2 trucks gave ctis a bad rap.

    Cab and spare hydraulics problems M1078 LMTV

    The parts tm show a full breakdown of the valve body. There could be a check valve in there. The air hyd lift pumps are a high failure item though.

    You can change them all out to 1600s I have seen it done a few times. Looks really mean on the truck.

    I finally got my first 5ton!! Santa Brought it!

    With those tires any of them are too old to run on the front wheels especially on the highway.

    I finally got my first 5ton!! Santa Brought it!

    They are all older tires and notorious for disentegrating sidewalls. There are threads on them. The date code will be on the side of the tire its 4 digits ie 5208 would be 52nd week 2008.
