    LMTVs and Traffic Signal Actuators

    I've been installing those "sensors" for over ten years in the electric gate business I owned. The the part you see in the ground that is commonly rectangular in shape but can be in many shapes is actually just insulated copper wire that makes a loop around that shape multiple times depending on...

    Battery Disconnect Box, what are these parts?

    I have lots of experience with both of those items on my A1. That photo you posted of the battery load controller, if bad (mine was) had a trouble light in the dash showing not charging even though mine was charging it also has a small hard to find LED light on the load controller green when...

    LMTV Air Conditioner

    Please put my name on one each of those brackets. I was in the processes of designing a mount to go on the generator side and adding a V pulley to the generator pulley. Instead of a idler pulley I was going to making the compressor bracket adjustable. But I much rather go with original parts for...

    LMTV Air Conditioner

    So the brackets are one part of the puzzle. Does any one have the other parts, such as the idler pulley and the pulley that goes behind the fan or replaces the fan pulley?

    LMTV M1078 Tachometer

    If I could figure out how to post pictures "MacBook" I would show you the cart I made to lower the trans onto then roll it out on the passenger side after also removing the muffler. I built it as low to the ground as possible to clear the frame. Lmtv722 and I removed the one I have and we...

    LMTV Adventure

    I personally don't recommend the balancing powder, from my own experience with it in my RV tires. The previous owner put that stuff in the tires and I was unaware of it until the family was on a cross country road trip as a responsible person I would check tire pressure every other day or so and...

    New alternator M1078A1

    Can you describe your symptoms that make you think the alternator is bad? I have an 03 M1078A1 that had multiple warning lights referring to the charging system and have fixed all but one.

    Changing the front cab mounts on the 1078A1

    I'll need to do this to my '03 A1 also, as it seems all A1 LMTV's the rubber used doesn't last very well. If you could please share with me where you acquired you body mounts so I can replace mine as well. My rear sway bar bushings were also rotted out and missing all together. I searched and...

    LMTV Adventure

    That's kind of what I thought, 55 is fast enough! Enjoy the scenery. The true difference in time is insufficient, 250 miles only takes an extra hour comparing 55mph to 70mph. But what type of mileage do you get at 55 with the higher gears?

    M1078A1 2003 Bad transmission problems

    From what I understand there is a secondary pump for the transfer case that uses the passenger side PTO output of the transmission to run it. Allison rebuilds practically every model except the MD 3070. I did find 3 different companies that would rebuild 2 of them were right at $8,000 and 1...
