3.90's?

Good point. I forgot that hole is larger. Probably not too many out there...

Found the NSN (2530-01-360-5954) and Meritor (Meritor 3219-W-4833) numbers, but does anyone have cross-reference part number for a civilian option? I don't currently have view access to the parts spreadsheet. Hope to soon though... Thanks in advance, Chris

+1 I'm as cheap as the next guy, but was very happy to have the diag kit and laptop when I had my HEUI issue. Is the kit + laptop expensive? Depends. In the one time I needed to use it on the road, it saved me on both the shop bill and waiting for time in their schedule to work me in. I...

I know it's legit coverage if it's set up correctly, but the "thing" with them is they need it to be 20 years old. It was clearly explained to me when I tried to insure my M1088 through them before it was 20 years old. That's why I ended up going with Progressive. I would be extremely...

Nope, that's a thing with them. I wouldn't want to be left holding the bag for a claim if things went south even if you secured coverage from an underinformed minion on their phone line. I know it's a different platform, but I am covered through Progessive as a commercial vehicle for private...

My experience starts with a PSA of "Don't do it this way", and then a way that works: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/m1088-camper-conversion.193622/page-24#post-2529609 I selected a line which I thought was actively pushing fluid, but I was wrong. Actually traced back the plumbing...

That's why I financially support this forum- it and its members (at least the ones I've interacted with) are awesome! I want to see this place live forever!

Did you end up using the Allison part or the Ronmar brand?

So a donut 0.335" thick with an ID of 1.992" and OD of 2.920" of "soft-ish" alu or plastic is all that's needed?

Getting out into the hills.

Can confirm, 3.07's and ECO hubs, but done as Rick says "by circumstance" and not choice. I have 3.07's because they were in the truck when I got it, and I have ECO hubs because "half the drivetrain speed." I will go back to the 3.90's when the opportunity arises. The truck is certainly...

It's a cell checker or something like that. Not a functionality-critical accessory.

Hah! Small world indeed!

While out on the road this spring, I met a very pleasant Austrian overlanding couple in Utah with a Steyr. They are presently in Alaska and emailed that they are looking for Michelins as stated, and aside from a Google search, I don't have any strong leads to offer. Anyone here have a source...

I am in Oregon and carried through Progressive, insured as a commercial vehicle for private use. It is extremely reasonable through them, but you will have to work to find an agent who actually wants to deal with you. I also had many "No's" before the agent I'm with said, "Sure, no problem!"

Replied to your email. No issues on posting the files. This forum has been immensely helpful in my MTV journey and I'd be happy to share your work getting the pattern digitized. There are a few things about the plywood pieces: You'll want to re-profile where the new, forward holes are for...

Hey Dwight, Sure, that can be arranged. Email or PM me details and I will get the pieces out to you.

Hey Dwight, I haven't drawn anything up yet for cutting files, and after seeing what Keith did, I am hearing that siren's song. Give me a little time to get things figured out. I may not end up doing the V1 and in the worst case, I can just send you the plywood pieces to test fit and create a...

That is accurate, but only optioned out units have the winch. Specifically, mine doesn't.
