Better call Eastern and verify the engine and ABS, sounds like a listing error. But it does have the super useful winch!

The 1081 is a very special, very rare airdrop/LAPES equipped type of LMTV. The cab can be knocked down to the beltline. There are sling points in the cargo bed that permit the parachute harness to be attached. Otherwise it is the same as a M1078. There were no M1081A1's made EDIT this is not...

FMTV Truck Sales, a vendor here, can rebuild your air hydraulic pump economically.

If you can post up some pictures of it, that would help. If the truck has been sitting forever, the value will be under $1000. These G8T trucks are not widly sought after like WWII Jeeps. A sale ad in Hemmings Motor News for $2000 or best offer would be a way to gauge interest.

One is vent.

You have been told wrong, the part is a muffler and does nothing to dry air. Actually it admits rainwater which is how these systems get damaged. McMaster part 4450K2 if you need one.

Yes, charge shop air through front emergency gladhand. Chock the wheels. If the truck won't take air that way, the check valve behind the front bumper is stuck.

Ohm out all 8 glow plugs and report the results. This is resistance from the glow plug terminal to ground with the wire disconnected. If some or all are open, well there you go.

When I went on the Stewart and Stevenson factory tour back in the 90's, the test track driver took us on a 30 degree side slope and explained that one of the qc checks was to look in the mirror and make sure the fuel cap did not leak. Maybe he missed yours?

What does she wish to do with it? Members of the military vehicle hobby have preserved these trucks and proudly display them at public gatherings and conventions of like minded enthusiasts. This model truck is not the most popular as it does not have all wheel drive.

Looking good. Let me know if the old cab & remnants or the front skid plate in the picture become available. (needing that!)

What are you referring to about poor reliability of the 3116? Totally untrue.

Sorry man, that light is for a HET not a FMTV. But you can adapt it. Thread on doing that here already.

If still the factory engine, it's could be a GEP, but possibly a leftover GM from 1999.

PDP is power distribution panel in front of co-driver. No surprise the engine does not fire if the ignition will not turn on. Sounds like you got the battery connections wrong.

24 and 12 volts present at the PDP power points? Instruments and trans selector come up when you power on the ignition?

Most auto parts stores will let you borrow one for free.

1966 would have been Kaiser Jeep. Same facility as AM General. The Texas Title is wholly focused on the VIN, having the manufacturer wrong will not prevent a future transfer. You can fix that by filing a 130-U and checking "corrected vehicle description ".

Nope, find the "deuce" forum. Plenty of shop van owners there.
