I'll soon have all the links to the MTV manuals up as well (6x6). If not downloaded to this site. All the LMTV manuals are already on this site. See the Technical Manuals forum.

"Hello, Haldex Brake Products Corp, how may I direct your call?" "Oh, you have one of THOSE, we can't help you, there is a website "Steelsoldiers" with a bunch of crazy hobbyists that can though . . . ".


We have seen that the military has had a hard time fixing the brake systems on these trucks. Lots of times, soldiers will start taking things apart without the guidance of the technical manuals, and then give up and send the truck to surplus. I would replace the brake pedal assembly and see what the state of the system is.

You're Right NDT. many times they put things together backwards , wondering why it doesn't work and then the truck goes off to the GSA yard
