WTEC controller is application specific. You need one from a FMTV, (LMTV or MTV), 1998 and up. Ask transmissioninstruments.com if he has the program for FMTV and can flash a non- FMTV controller.

1998 trucks are WTEC 3 transmission control to match the transmission. If someone sold you a 1997 or before dash harness, it is incompatible.

Suggest replace the entire axle with a lighter duty trailer axle, preferably with the same bolt pattern as the tow vehicle.

If the transmission is bolted to a OA331 gas engine, 99.999% chance it's a 3052. Will bolt right in.

Try bending the hinge leafs bolted to the cab. Make sure nobody put some shims under the hinge.

Fuzzytoaster where are you, SME on this subject!!!

I think that rim size is a late 70's carryover. Back then, 16.5 was common on pickups. Military carried the size along with the rest of the HMMWV heritage items (6.2/6.5 etc). I believe Goodyear and BF Goodrich know these tires are relied upon by our warfighters and hopefully put their best...

Investgate the top speed, the A1 is a bit of a slowpoke. Parts can be problematic too.

Regarding the ECU battery, fuzzytoaster on here just went through that. He had to replace the ECU, and Cat was not particularly helpful. He has a thread on the subject.

The 3126's engine computer has a "hold up battery" that cannot be replaced, and is just about at end of life for this era truck. When it dies, the truck will not longer run. Then the real fun begins.

We just had a thread on this. EDIT: INCORRECT: The rear tailgate area brackets are for "convoy ahead" sign. Juanprado is correct, the side, rear and hood brackets are for CID panels.

What era military used this acronym? I never heard it. Sorry for thread diversion.

What does RTH mean?

Welcome. Sounds like when you installed the waterproof distributor, you stabbed it a tooth or teeth off. As for now, do you have fresh clean gas in the truck? 2+ year old gas will not work well if at all.

Nice trailer. Don't see those around anymore. Was like a textile repair shop possibly? Markings are straight out of the Vietnam era.

Trailer is M416, built for use with M151 series. It will be fine behind the A1. The engine data plate is from when Dutch military overhauled the engine.

Engine is correct! I believe only entire fenders are available.

That is the same axle that was bolted on in Sealy in 1998. Get a quote on drive-in drive out gear change at MTP drivetrain in Many, LA. You can wait or get a rental car and go home.

Wow add this to the list of bizarre FMTV air brake problems. Have not seen this, my only suggestion is to go back to the usual culprit of spring brake application while driving, issues with the vent in the front gladhand covers.

The GP lot is in the middle of the action at Red River Depot. Inches away from the interstate. You want a car hauler to move that for you, not a 18 wheeler.
