    C7 Blow By

    I've got 4 A1R trucks and had 11 over the years. They will all have some degree of blowby, it's a medium duty diesel so it's inherent that it will have some. If you can't visibly see the blowby that's a good sign. If it's blowing the cap/bung out that's a bad sign. Anywhere in-between is fine as...

    AM General MTVR Prototype

    Not a crazy update but I was tipped off for a donaldson p/n for the MTVR intake cap and it fits the prototype perfectly.

    Can they scrap or trash part of your "winnings" for you?

    They won't check it off as picked up until it's all gone. If they perceive it of value then you'll be charged a default fee and it relisted. If the site POC is nice he may throw it in another lot, dumpster, or someone's truck with your permission. All in all they just want to check the box so...

    How was the rate? I've bounced quotes between Maston and Pasha until one gives up but it has been a while.

    AM General MTVR Prototype

    I made some headway on this MTVR today with the help of my team. We installed a NOS Camo soft top as factory correct. Windshields are out and being replaced. Bed was assembled and has complete sides. I've found it's either a repurposed USMC 5 ton ISO bed or a new bed built with minor changes...

    M35A3 Owners unite

    Not many hit the market any more. Uncle Sam's pickets are empty.

    AM General MTVR Prototype

    I agree, something they carried over to the production MTVR. This control unit cycles through pressure on each tire in unknown order which is cool. The buttons are a bit crunchy to play with it too much at the moment. It does appear fully responsive including the load settings. It seems to want...

    AM General MTVR Prototype

    Yes it was. Nice system. It even displays tire pressure when doing the self check. Bad tires replaced. The other 4 will follow when I have time and it stops raining. The wheel CTIS parts look like M35A3 with some cobbled together bits. Nothing is streamlined, clearly off the shelf concoction...

    Transmission stalling engine shortly after start up - Advice?

    This is a very odd issue. Any transmission codes on the gear selector? This may be barbaric levels of bashing rocks together but.. drain the transmission system and start it. If the issue goes away then you've validated your transmission based issue. How does the fluid smell?

    AM General MTVR Prototype

    She did just that today. I replaced the transmission push button selector, pushed fluids as needed, and let her warm up slowly. The transmission needed more fluid in the last video so it was a little sluggish. Both rear left tires fragmented on the idle across the motor pool to no ones surprise...

    M936A2 Wrecker Tire Swap

    I stock and mount 395/85r20's in Dallas, TX. @CallMeColt is due to bring his HMMWV up to me for an IP swap and maybe he could bring them to you on his way back. I carry the MV/T and X/XL. 90%-100% tread of various years (2005-2020).

    AM General MTVR Prototype

    I got her to fire up and runs nice. Good oil pressure and doesn't skip a beat. I have air leaks to tend to, bad tire, check all other fluids, and replace the gear selector from being baked in the sun for 25 years. She may just crawl out of her grave like a champ.
