    m998 with no shift from 1st to 2nd

    That tells me the issue is internal to the transmission. Hopefully member "rustystud" will chime in as he rebuilds these and knows them in and out. I don't.

    m998 with no shift from 1st to 2nd

    To me, checking this involves pulling it out of the transmission and verifying the plunger moves with the gas pedal. I am focused on this item because on a vacuum modulated TH400, it will also not shift out of first if not functioning.

    m998 with no shift from 1st to 2nd

    Check function of the mechanical modulator. Maybe the cable inside snapped. Oh and welcome to the forum. More folks will chime in shortly.

    m1078 recovery

    I have found that no matter how discharged the batteries are, if the alt is charging, the voltmeter will read in the green.

    A generator issue, 60 amp aluminum strap and black thick wire

    Since "they" convinced you to buy the wrong alternator, you will have to figure out how to attach the huge cable to the little stud on the 60A. Recipe for disaster.

    Should a MEP003 run a 5ton ECU on the heat side?

    Looks like you answered your own question. Maybe you can disconnect a heat strip or two to get the load down to 9 kW.

    Difference between a 2 door troop carrier and a regular 4 door rig?

    The body tub is the same between trucks set up as 4 man and the 2 man tallbacks. Everything related to the troop seats bolts in. Shelter carriers did not have rear seat risers.

    m38a1 radio

    Nope, you are building a AN/VRC-10, which takes a MT-299/GR mounting. I have the install diagram if you need it.

    Is this an original military setup?

    That looks like the first stinger crane ever made. Almost certainly was not mounted on the GMC chassis during military service. I learned the hard way that trucks like the one pictured that served extensive civilian careers are often not the best to restore back military. Too many mods to...
