    Fording Project

    I will be curious what will happen with the front axle boots at 2.5 psi.

    LMTV Adventure

    Unless the person you bought it from did a fluid change to ATF, the Allison should still have engine oil in it. I would not worry about 2 quarts low. I would also not recommend driving more than 12 hours without a night's rest. Recipe for disaster.

    condensor replacement.

    Assuming you have the waterproof distributor, remove the 6 screws that hold the cover on. The you will see the condenser there, it is held on with a small screw, don't let that screw fall down into the advance underneath. You will have to loosen the nut on the stud where the wire connects with...

    m38a1 runs idles then dies on acceleration

    Yes the points and condenser are standard parts, tell them you have a '65 CJ-5 with 4 cylinder.

    Cab and spare hydraulics problems M1078 LMTV

    Confirming, the pump stalls out when attempting to lift BOTH the cab and spare tire mount? If it's just the cab, can you see the safety indicator extend on the cab latch? If not the latch could be stuck, preventing the cylinder from raising the cab.

    Cab and spare hydraulics problems M1078 LMTV

    Is your air-hydraulic power pack pumping like crazy or really struggling?

    Are you keeping your runflats in LMTV tires?

    Someone must have put MRAP wheel/tire assys on your LMTV because as drlivered, there are only beadlocks in the tire, not runflats.

    1998 6.5/4l80E swap..

    My question would be, is the truck fixable with a front clip? Slap some 383 green on it and you got a CUCV II clone. I am in awe of my '00 Chevy 3500 4x4 with the same powertrain.

    m38a1 runs idles then dies on acceleration

    Start with new points and condenser. If that does not fix it, replace the coil with a NOS unit even if it is used or old. Don't buy a new shiny chinese coil.

    LMTV Transmission Issues

    5 GALLONS low???? I suspect if the Army was driving it around with that much oil missing, something got burned up.

    M917/M916/M920 Wiring Diagrams

    -10 is operators, -20 is organizational maintenance, and -34 is depot maintenance. Add a "P" suffix, and that is a parts manual with parts available to that level of maintenance activity.

    Finally scored a top

    Do you have it on the right way round? The cammo blotches are not lining up from top to bed? Otherwise looking great!

    Saddle Tool Box Mount on M915

    I love my M915, but anyone that uses one will quickly find there is nearly no place to stow anything, other than the floorboard and under the passenger seat. It is so lame to have your chains straps and binders, tool box, etc piled high on the floorboard. So SS member av8or to the rescue. He...

    LMTV Adventure

    I would assemble a kit of all the high mortality parts in the air brake and hydraulic systems since all those p/n are now available buried in threads here. You will need them sooner or later.

    What model trailer is this?

    Not sure but I suspect it is a old Bell System telephone cable splicing trailer.

    LMTV Parking Brake will Not Disengage

    Suprman, just to be clear: When you release the parking brake, air is sent to the parking brake chamber which compresses the spring and retracts the shoes. Later when you apply the service brakes, air is applied to the service chambers which actuates the shoes.

    LMTV Parking Brake will Not Disengage

    Try caging them to see if that releases the brakes.

    New M275 in Arizona

    Actually, the platform behind the cab (porch?) is not supposed to have a box or spare carrier. Looks like a transplant from a 5 ton. If you do cut off the tractor stuff, I call dibs on the ramp. PM me when you are ready.

    New M275 in Arizona

    Your USA number, 4J4520, tells me your truck is a 1966-67 like all the others made by Kaiser. It also originally did not have an alternator, another indication it is not a 1970's truck. Not a big deal, just though you might be interested in knowing.

    Mk48 LVS Hydraulic Specs

    Thanks Ron, good advice there, sounds like I need to stick to giving tidbits on vehicles I have actually SEEN (LOL).
