    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    They are turn signal only. They use the same bulb as the composite light turn and stop bulb and are very bright, even in daytime. I will post some pics when I get them installed. Soni

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Fuel Gauge and Pogo Stick.... We got some snow last night and it turned very cold as the front passed. As a result I did not get as much done on the FEMTT as I wanted to. I did get the new VDO fuel level sender installed in the fuel tank, welded on the bracket for the pogo stick and bolted the...

    M725 engine and trans cost/availability

    I have a complete original engine, transmission and transfercase. It is a low milage, good running take out from a M715, that I disassembled for body parts on a customer's project. This engine really runs great! Also, I have to make several trips to Cali in the next month so I could deliver the...

    Patracy's "SEMTT"

    Looks great 'patracy'! I'm glad to see that you are back on the project....I know it can get frustrating somtimes when undertaking a huge project, and things don't progress quite as fast as we would like them to, but I also know that you are going to be very happy with the truck when you get it...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Yes....the tanks were about the maximum size the FEMTT could handle without using a jib extension. They were 17 ft. tall, 12 ft. in diameter and weight 3100 pounds each. Now the running out of fuel was entirely my fault. I just forgot to double check and did not take in to account all the test...

    what is this any interest in any of its parts

    I would like to buy the work light and mast, on the left rear of the cab, with brackets. My 10 Ton is missing those parts. PM me with a price if you want to part with them... Soni

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    My First FEMTT Job....! Well, after a long night finishing the driverside fender and hooking up the remaining air lines (23:15h and 24F in the thread cutting pic!), I did my first FEMTT job today! I had to go way out in to the middle of nowhere to set some water tanks for the Monestary, down...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Thank you....yes I'm going tan on this truck. Part of the reason is, that I will use the FEMTT for work. I have figured out over many years of using some of my military vehicles for my business, that people still think if it's camo, you bought it for $50 down at the local army surplus sale...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    One Fender Done....One To Go.... Got the passenger side on the FEMTT almost buttoned up! :D I painted the fender, bolted the fender flares back on and installed it all back on to the truck. So the only thing left to do on the passenger side, is fabricating the hinged engine hood to match the...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    More Fender Work and Fender Flares Since I worked on the FEMTT until almost midnight last nite, I was to tired to do an update, but here it is: So I was going to remove the passenger side fender, only to find out that it would no longer come off! I guess in my excitment I overlooked, that the...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Right Side Rear Engine Access Panel Today was a pretty good day.....I decided that I really needed to finish the right side of the dog house. Unlike on the left side, on the right side the side panels will have to be made as a bolt on rear section and a hinged front section that matches the...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Fenders and Mud Flaps.... With most of the electrical system complete and the truck drivable, I need to finish the front fenders and install my 'fancy' Oshkosh mud flaps. So since nothing on this project ever seems to be simple, I'm happy to report that this trend continues with the mud flaps...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Very tempting offer.....and it is a very nice one indeed....but I think you forget that I just had to "feed" it for you and it is quite "hungry".....lol :driver:

    M1070 Duals?

    Good choice on the M1070! This truck is twice the M911 and some! I own a M1070 and have used both, the M1070 and the M911 and have driven them on the highway and under severe, remote access conditions, pulling heavy loads. I must say, I'm very impressed with the overall performance of the...
