sounds about right... though the Cummins was a step up from the 3116 and the Brazos was in that 3116 era of the FMTV's right? Does that Cummins exceed the 3126's?
Used Ambulance box and your good to go.... significantly less expensive than expedition boxes and 50x stronger. oh.. and seat belts required in the rear. In mine all habitat seats will be niceish junkyard automotive with belts. Likely Jeep Wrangler rear seats for bench/booth seat and front...
good input... answered part of my question of ..... "was one or all of its data of any value outside of trouble shooting?."
Seems still though that maybe not via ICE but via pulling thru other means one or two things of data it puts out can be utilized. For example tach and more voltage...
Laptop not for any programming etc... just as a display of information to eye over at when something burps as your driving, use your laptop screen as tach, your 12v batt status as you mentioned etc.
orrr... if truck farts and makes you jump into... oops.. pullover / stop driving.. then you...

Anyway.. that'ss a whole new topic best for another thread .... especially since I'm not sure what the heck STE even is.... (think its about some archaic...
does not surprise me.... most folk dont know how to use advance search features beyond what is provided by a bulletin board... (and many wont even do that... they start new threads instead.... "what oil xyz" LOL)
can you run this also with same parameters but different tire heights? OEM (45"ish), 14R20's (48"ish), and 16R20 (53ish)... and for shitz and grins... maybe 12r20 (40ish).. might be smart to lower center of gravity on and off road for those building expedition rigs.... ??
