    MTV hydraulic brake actuator

    The front axle brakes are hydraulic actuated, why I don't know. Instead of the usual air chamber forcing the wedges in to actuate the shoes, these have hydraulic cylinders to force the wedge. The Caiman chassis that were scrapped here were 50/50 on air and hydraulic.

    FMTV Pintle hook question

    Is your end game to remove the pintle and attach a ball hitch in it's place? If so better do some measuring, the rear crossmember is way up in the air and car dollies seem to be intolerant of being pulled out of level.

    Any of you radio guys ever see, or play with one of these?

    Hmm, 2 meter, so this would be for local emergency communications. I have never seen one of these before. I wonder if there was a shortwave version so survivors of the nuclear blasts could communicate with each other?

    Multi-fuel engines.

    Yes, the contract number date (1968 ) is a reasonable approximation of the date of mfg. And yes, the LD engines were not turbosupercharged.

    rear air brake leaks on new M1078
