What are you going to put there in place of the diagnostic port?

Nothing. The port is still there. This truck did not come with that kick plate. I added it.

It is a stock one off another truck. Bolt holes line up.

I know they come on the A1R, not sure if the A1's had that kickplate.

Not a common item (and you'd likely get wallet raped if anyone had one for sale).

Super simple to fab, though. Sheet metal shop can slap a couple bends into a piece of sheet metal, cut a hole and tack on a piece of tubing for the vent. Cut a hole for diag port access. Paint. /done

Just FYI, my 2002 M1083A1 has one.



Sorry it looks so dirty, but the photographs were taken on the day of pickup.

So the A0 didn't have one then. I have an A0 and it doesn't and I hate the ugliness down there (as well as the heater hose that just shoots down to the floor. Wonder if anyone has a spare lying around.

I don't know if he has anymore trucks he is parting out but check with @wheelspinner. If not, I'm sure someone on here is parting out trucks.

I think he is on SS but not sure his name, but check with Beltfed34 on eBay. He always seems to have a lot of parts for FMTV's.

I bought 5 feet. That covered both sides with about a foot to spare.

Hello All:
New lurking member here looking for the right FMTV. Getting a bit anxious on pulling the trigger.

I was thinking about the clean look of this kickplate the other day when hunting for trucks. I noticed them missing on a large number of trucks. In my limited research into this part it did not seem readily available. Once I get the truck, I was planning on reverse engineering this kick plate and sending it out to some of the local metal fab shops I do business with to have it quoted.
