. Just a thought after re-reading your post. Now that the sensor is sticking out just a bit more, is it possible you have an airpocket between the coolant and the sensor? That would account for some higher temps. I was pondering the depth that you have the sensor into the manifold. That...

240 degrees is a bit too high for my liking. My original comes on at 215-ish. Me too will be replacing this soon as my switch fails to disconnect at times, cooling the fluid all the way down to 150 or so before it comes back to normal temp. but only intermittently. The aftermarket switches will...

. On my M1123 I also have the indicator light. The base somehow has a loose contact. Even though the signals outside the truck always work, the indicator doesn't always work. If I push a bit on the green lens it usually makes enough contact to come on... Have you tried squeezing the sides of the...

. Where did you get them from? Are there any brand markings or anything?

. Well, it is that time of year, again. We took the M1123 out for a drive on western South Dakotas' fresh 2" snow yesterday, mostly just to see how the truck handles, especially the "load range E" Bajas. Well, we got to enjoy a 50 mile roundtrip through Spearfish, backroads to Deadwood...

In the Air Force we used similar type of bomb lifts to load 500 lbs and 2,000 lbs bombs onto the B-1 bomber. Also, we loaded FLIRs and radar equipment onto the outside. I could imagine this being a rocket loading lift for Army helicopters or gunships... Is there anything indicating what service...

. Flip the cover upside down, lay it over the front. Have a helper with you, slide the lip into the channel from the side. Left to right or vice versa doesn't matter... Then flip the cover over the cab, There should be some videos online as well...

Not likely if you have the original start switch installed. Power should be completely cut off to the ignition system in the ENG STOP position, IMHO. Have you added any accessories?

. Actually missed another one, just below in blue... Man, this sucks. Sorry @GMVguy

. Looks like four or five bundles... Best of luck, and hopefully no electrical components fried during the cutting when wires shorted out. :cry:

Come to think of it, is it definetly white smoke? Could it be a blue shade? The same guide also has a blue smoke section:

. My uneducated guess is something electrical, like a solenoid, or sensor... Just as a gut feeling.

Very nice looking truck, congrats. I didn't see the windshield wiper fluid tank, right next to the ESSS. Also, I am wondering why the air filter housing is removed... Also, it looks like you don't have windshields installed? And think about replacing the seatbelts with 3 point belts. Inspect...

Here is an excerpt from the AM General troubleshooting guide regarding smoke:

You will be surprised how little effort it takes when the wheels are off the ground. Almost none at all...

. Most important: Jack the truck's entire front end and put on jack stands. Then you don't have any resistance while turning...

. I need to add that the chart above is for Radial tires, here is the chart in the Operators Manual for BIAS tires. So use depending on your needs.

Very impressive workmanship and ingenuity. Kudos! Have you (for improvement) considered lowering your tire pressure? What are you currently running? In my case, I found out (with the help of a few folks here on the forum) the curb weight plus driver and passenger calls for 15 and 18 PSI for my...

. It could be, but the OP also reports sudden speed increase, that wouldn't happen if it merely unlocks the TCC, IMO

. I've learned the hard way that some solar chargers actually drain batteries when it gets dark due to faulty diodes/resistors in the charge controller.
