The Army didn't drain the Allison just for s___s and grins. They were about to pull it when someone decided coding it out was funner.

None the safety braces on my trucks go overcenter either. Yes these trucks are no G742, they all have these type issues and much worse too. Spend some time searching the FMTV forum for bizarre problems other people have had with the cab lift. There have been several resolutions posted by folks.

Sounds like trash is being circulated in the system. Personally I would start at the easy place, the fittings at the lift cylinder. Remove them and look for chunks of crap inside. Usually that is where the flow restrictors are, I don't have TMs handy presently.

Sounds like a plugged restrictor orifice.

I drove a similar CCKW 266 miles not too long ago with no problems whatsoever at 45 mph. I would bring a backup fuel and water pump.

Go for the aluminum wheels, the A3 wheels tend to leak. Check your tire date codes, the MVTs have been out for over 10+ years now.

A 10k PTO winch. Works like a charm. Use a snatch block if you are sitting on the frame.

Yup it's a 1971. Now you know the number that would have been painted on the hood when it was delivered, that is a challenge to figure out for most folks. To determine what units it was assigned to, start sanding on the front bumper and rear bumperettes with a DA sander and let us know what...

Welcome! Don't remember seeing that one at the forestry auction. History starts with the serial number, can you provide it? Will be on the dash plate and stamped in the frame near the drivers side front axle forward spring mount.

Looking really good. That generator setup is a never seen accessory. A critique if you don't mind, the bottom box on the BC659 setup was used when the radio is dismounted, not typically seen in triple decker fashion.

Oh the G solenoid? In the pan.

Here I attached it here.

I don't understand your question. I got the 2.8 number from the Allison WTECII Troubleshooting manual. If you don't have it, PM me your email and I'll send it. I thought is was here on the site somewhere.

Sounds like it, min spec is 2.8.

4422 short to ground G solenoid, 4514 open circuit c solenoid circuit, 4326 low side driver N solenoid circuit, 4516 open circuit e solenoid circuit, 5788 range verification c3ps test N1. All these codes cause DNS or do not shift. Again, carefully inspect the harness from stem to stern...

High demand and low supply. These parts are all "culled" out of scrap contracts and it's quite an effort trust me.

43-26 is "low side driver N solenoid circuit". The N solenoid controls low range and first gear. Driver refers to the solenoid driver. Low side means the return side of the circuit, not the high side. What I don't understand is this fault does not inhibit shifting. Are there more codes...

Guilty. Forever we had a "tow bar" with curved arms that nobody knew what it was for. Now 20 years later I'm educated.

Well we've been wondering if Richie Bros is selling DOD surplus outside of the auction process, guess we have our answer.
