    What is a “motor Pool” CJ5?

    No hub caps, 15" rims stock. You have your work cut out for you on that one.

    mixing tire types

    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.

    Caiman MRAP guidance on activating all the chassis systems.

    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.

    1951 PE-95K Gen Set, Canadian Version - Refurb

    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!

    Troubleshooting Help Needed - Distributor Not Rotating

    When you pull the oil pump to remove the broken piece, make sure you mark where the teeth end up so you can orient the pump rotor in the same position when you replace it.

    Lmtv no power on push to start

    By "the dash" I am assuming the cover of the PDP and by pins I assume spade terminals on the plug in relays. I would replace any that are significantly corroded, otherwise use a wire brush.

    Lmtv no power on push to start

    Until your WTEC lights up you will not be able to start normally. Start your diagnosis by making sure the relays and breakers in the PDP are the correct part numbers in the correct spot.

    Caiman MRAP guidance on activating all the chassis systems.

    Another Cat transmission creation that did not take off like the 7155. Caterpillar service will need to plug in the Cat ET in order to tell you which fault is inhibiting shift. CTIS controller should be the same as FMTV, except you want one with a black case that is flashed for higher...

    Dual voltage alternator?

    All the solenoids in the transmission also draw power from the 24 volt side. Someone here posted that their truck powered down in the middle of Dallas rush hour traffic due to the transmission going to low voltage fault.

    FMTV Battery hook up diagram

    The NEGATIVE cable on my '98 LMTV has a band with TL48 stamped on it. The +12 volt cable has a band with TL99 stamped on it. The TWO +24 volt cables are short and obviously can only reach to the post on the left rear battery. Hope that helps.
