Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
.The "F" in FMTV is "Family". So the FAMILY of Medium Tactical Vehicles includes both MTVs and their "Light" LMTV siblings.

All 12V lights.
The F in FMTV is for Family. That is the entire series of trucks..
Right. That is what I typed.
BUT the LMTV and MTV trucks are 24v.
I don't think the LMTV and FMTV trucks are in the same family. Right?
The 7 ton trucks are not part of the FMTV family. They a different animal all together..
Thanks for the info. Still, not sure that the 7-Ton trucks are part of that same family...

much cheaper than the"new" retran arriving from MTP next week...lol.
Yeah, the crummy part is that the aluminum pedal on the steel hinge. There is a fancy multi-syllable word called Galvanic Corrosion at work here. The two pieces of metal are incompatible. They die a slow death.
Looks like you found the solution. Cut out the old and replace it with something new. Bummer!
I think the USMC 7-tons are Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacements (MTVR). Similar name, but not related in almost any componentry..
Perfect. That was what I thought I was saying several posts ago - but all is well.
We have it aired out as it should be now!

sorry for the confusion.... didnt expect someone to be asking a question about a totally different vehicle from an FMTV .... in an FMTV forum ... thus didn't recognize that this was a very off topic twist of a question.

Let me guess, your LMTV might not look like much, kid, but she's got it where it counts? : )I'm still working on the Ion cannons, so just a ComicCon transport for now.

I opted to use riv nuts instead of mig welding due to my crappy luck with setting things on fires... nylon spacers are temporary until I get the pedal placement View attachment 842299View attachment 842300 finalized..

.@Mullaney I caught (and appreciated) the Han Solo quote. I'm all about blurring the line (what line?) between Star Wars and "reality"
