Your truck was not a shelter carrier and is not set up with shelter tiedowns.
FMTVs are like any other full time all wheel drive truck. Unless the transfer is in High Lock (Mode), if any one wheel or axle does not have traction, you are not moving. Same as HMMWV, M880.
Great job with fixing the Allison!! That tells me you will be able to solve all the other...
Glad they could help you! In Galveston make sure to see Seawolf Park, Tall Ship Elissa, the Ocean Star oil rig, Strand district; Sunflower Cafe and Gaido's for great eats.
It could be that the reason you blew a u-joint is because you were driving on hard surface in mode. If your truck is stuck in mode, I would suspect the keypad has water intrusion.
For your pan hole, I would make a patch using a square of aluminum from a coke can and JB weld it in place.
Great! This is an excellent reference thread for the proper equipment to transport M1079 trucks. Search terms RGN, removable gooseneck, detachable gooseneck, double drop trailer.
I would head straight to the alternator, if there is 24 volts present on the battery lead and excite lead with the ignition on, the alt is likely inop.
Welcome. No this subject has not been covered. In my opinion, mix- matching Goodyear and Michelin tires on the same truck is very poor fleet management by Uncle. In a panic brake situation, this can throw the truck into a spin.
If you find manuals or information on any of the Caiman 2 systems please upload to the site. My understanding is these were never delivered to DOD and no manuals were made available either paper or ETM.
PE95 sets are great running quiet efficient power plants, perfect for single phase 120/240 feeds to houses. Easy to convert to natural gas. My only worry with running one continuous duty is the armature sealed bearing with 60 year old grease in it!
