Before I made my post, I was wondering how long it would take for a Mogger to take offense.:lol: Mogs are very capable machine, and was purposely omitted from the list because they are not a true forward control. The driver is still behind the front axle and the front axles on Mogs are moved as...
All forward control trucks handle differently than conventional cabs, especially when empty .This is from the small Haflingers, Pinzgauers, LR101 and into the medium duty 2 axle trucks. The lack of weight in the rear makes for a quick and easy way for the rear to easily swap end on downhill...
This goes back to quoting info from the web. Some info is out there to ease bad reps and sell a "newer, better" truck to the public. I only comment on my truck and hate 3rd hand info. I'll wait for a FMTV mechanic to actually say what is what. None of what's in that attached files indicates any...
Same engine and trans. A1 has improvements requested by the government..
The dataplate on mine is M1094, but by factory records, its a M1094A1
The 2 additional letters don't add weight, but options like a PTO and winch do. Could have been ordered with troop seats and cover..? Options will...
Seafire,
Your SS mechanic should have no problem sourcing parts for these trucks. He should even already know where to go for everything.
I'd actually would like to talk to him. My conversations and emails with present and past BAE employees has enlighted me to a lot of the FMTV history and...

I can't say anything on the Deuce ( and won't because I don't want to make any "mis-quotes":p)....but from the TM, the LMTV standard cab weighs approx 1400 lbs and a 1081 (AO) cab weighs approx 1700 lbs ( fully fitted for takeoff). Tires weigh in at 340lbs each. Someone else can give a number...
I hate the web:mad:.. so much mis information and people repeating it! My 1996 M1094 has a mechanical engine and IS NOT computer controled. It does have a TPS for the Allison World Trans, which is computer controled... I don't care to think how many times someone repeated something on the FMTVs...
