    Front prop shaft replacement

    So I detected excessive spline play in the front prop shaft... What to do? A local shop specializing in drive line repair (and a Spicer auth. dealer) quoted me $575.00 to repair. Thanks to Suprman for the referral to Eastern Supply. Bought a new one for $475.00 and it appears to have much...

    FMTV in Nevada

    We picked up our M-1078 in Pennsylvania, and drove it home to Gardnerville. It had a PA title, and we had a trip permit issued by the AAA in PA. I then drove it up to Carson City ( in forest camo..) and had it inspected. The short vin# threw them, as it wouldn't work in their system. They just...

    Water/Methanol Injection, anyone??

    Engine specs. Dropped by my local CAT Dealer and gave them my engine number. She gave me this attached printout.. Interesting stuff, and probably typical for the 3116's we have in the M-1078's. Pointman

    Here is reply from AEM, a leading manufacturer of these systems. "What are the peak boost levels you see with the Cat 3116 engine?

    Want your cabs to be cooler add this

    Local stereo shop and a box 'online'. I did not go with the rolled product. What I bought came in 2 x 1' foot squares. It was very heavy with aluminum on onside and removable paper on the other side that peeled off before application. Buy a good roller tool to apply. I used more than 40 sq/ft on...

    FMTV steel grilles

    I met with a composite fabricator yesterday who is willing to do a limited run in hand laid Fiberlass for a good price. Anyone here willing to let him borrow an existing metal 'Shark Grille' to make a lay-up mold? He is in Sparks, Nevada.. Pointman

    FMTV steel grilles

    I have a meeting tomorrow with a client who manufactures composite parts. I may ask about costs of creating a fiberglass or drape mold to create a few of these. I did ask BAE, and he told me that the 'manufacturer' had a very high unit cost and they were out of stock.. Pointman
