    Real useful load limit LMTV&FMTV

    Thanks Ron. Your chart confirms the standard FMTV 5 ton=10,000lbs Awsomemness, Interesting. Any idea where this discussion is? or where to find the axle limit? I get the point, however there is more to the equation than just the axles. Tires, frame flex, springs, etc. But it...

    What is it?

    ok I'll bite those are the bolts in side mounted battery cables. Looks like a phenolic center. 2pos. 2neg Wires into a inline disconnect. Its a way to power accessories while the batteries are out? Or a trickle charger hook up. So how did I do?🤪

    What is it?

    The drive is about a 1% incline i did drive in the creek. Which is 50 ft from the house. So ... yes the right side got wet and then I parked it. I was thinking that the wet brakes stuck to the drums. It did appear the drivers side tires were trying to turn. The chunk of rubber is concerning.
