We have a clunky noise that I am yet to locate on the drivers side. It almost sounds like something is able to slide/swing side to side, though will also clunk over certain terrain variations. We can make it sound while driving down a county road and steering side to side. And it clunks going...

Two schematics for FTMVA1 trucks by serial number . Appears to include options like: arctice kit cab heater, van, wrecker, wrecker material handling crane, cargo material handling crane, 200a alternator, arctic kit troop heater, j1939/1587 bus, engine harness. Do not recall the source—

Blew our first mv oil line today. The line between the block near the oil sender and the air compressor. It was an old rubber/fabric line on our list to replace, wish I had done it sooner. Two questions: 1— Since we are home is it best to go to the local John Deere dealer or Tractor Supply...

Looking at the way we hope to use our M1078A1, an middle aged couple traveling with a dog or two in a land yacht, we hope to have a robust cab and chassis electrical and HVAC system separate from a habitat system. For many years we have camped and backpacked at more remote corners of the...

While refurbishing our 2003 M1078A1 to prepare for our off road habitat our friend, Ted Wiborn, (@expeditionteamwiborn), came to visit us in the Texas hill country. Ted and I have had the opportunity to off road and hike a few times in Utah to some amazing places, so we decided to test the...

2003 M1078A1 looking for a TM or ETM covering the ABS system. I thought I had found a live ETM for the A1, though apparently I am mistaken–

@GeneralDisorder and @Ronmar both shared solid suggestions to clean our PDP and update the circuit breakers and relays. We found a mix of their suggestions and other sources to clean and replace our aging electrical bits and pieces. We used compressed air, a small paint brush, and a micro...

Adding ECO HUBS to our M1078 this weekend is going well except the front axle gear oil is clotted. Not cloudy or milky, black as midnight, clots when cleaning out the wheel hub with metal cleaner. It was difficult to clean out the wheel housings sufficiently. Planning to drop all the gear oil...

Do I need to keep these installed and connected? I doubt if they sense something I have the 'other' end installed to let me know—

Point me in the right direction please. I have spent too much time in the TM's looking for this and must just be too stupid or unable to channel the right mindset to find what I am seeking. 2003 M1078A1 has the red dash warning light BATTERY DISCONN lit, though everything (except the bricked...
