    M1088a1 wtech lll no power check trans light on

    Haha he posted in the TM upload forum, was not possible to answer post until now. Sounds like your transmission harness has shorted wires. Check the harness end to end very carefully.

    Welcome. They started making those in 1991. Hint hint.

    New Member Intro - Ya'all have been great so far!

    In my opinion, the key to reliability in these trucks is to replace the 1984 engine/transmission with a early 2000's HMMWV takeout GEP 6.5 engine with 4L80E overdrive transmission. This is a drop in swap with the only tricky part being the transmission controller.

    lmtv computer/tach ?

    What year is your truck? Need to know that to advise where the computer(s) are. Tachometers were standard on winch trucks, you will need to find the components that were installed on winch trucks.

    M998 wont shift out of 1st--any ideas

    And maybe the cable is broken in the conduit. Pull the end that's in the transmission and see if the plunger moves when soldier b presses the gas pedal.

    Goat Parts

    Its funny how those goats have been discussed on this forum so many times over the years as they sat there at the forestry yard forever. Everyone speculated that they were going to be scrapped.

    M38A1 body numbers?

    Look at post 4. Based on that data, looks like Willys was cranking out about 1500 jeeps per month. So your is about 3240 jeeps after serial 75910, or 11/54 give or take. You should not have a hinged grille though.

    Got my Light Material Handling Crane (LMHC) today!

    Well today was not the day, GP sold two for $3200 ea, then add 300 for freight, I don't think so.

    transfer case rear output flange

    Curious how the ear got broken off? Let me guess GP forklift rash? Hopefully the shaft is not bent or case cracked. Had to be an immense force to break that part.

    M35a2 White Smoke

    I would verify the turbocharger is not seized before I got into the ip. Can you hear it?

    M1045A2 with seized engine...

    The USMC trucks all have factory fording kits and with that comes the air cleaner housing bottom drain delete cap. If for some reason the mushroom rain cap gets lost, the air cleaner fills with rain water and eventually runs into the engine.

    M35a2 White Smoke

    Any chance it's rainwater boiling off in the exhaust pipe?

    M35 A1 Turn Signals

    Power comes from the feed to the brake light switch.

    M35 A1 Turn Signals

    While you install the new harness, run a new wire from the steering column area to all four lamp-units. Obtain a flasher handle, harness, and module from a later model truck. Match up the 461 etc numbers.

    Shelter identity

    That is the van that is permanently attached to a M1079. Ladder is a two man lift to place on the back of van.

    What would a LMTV completed run? Pic enclosed Also where do you find the hood racks

    Huh? The C7 did come and still comes in the FMTVs. The SD Brazos has a Cummins engine which as we know might just be a better engine than the C7.
