    Haldex Midland Air Supply Valve

    The Air Supply valve on my M1078 is leaking and I'm looking for a replacement. can these be bought individually? I see lots of them on the usual FleaBay and Amazon searches. Just wondering if these are fairly generic or we need a special one? Supraman? :grd: Pointman

    Manual CTIS Conversion for M-1078

    Today, I finished installation of my version of TJ's system. My CTIS had the 5 flashing lights and after screwing with it for weeks, I was just done. I like the manual system so much better, and it adds a bit of Steam Punk-ness to the interior. I used a glycerin filled air gauge and a filter on...

    LMTV - Sound Proofing & Insulation Mods (Post Your Proofing)

    I did my LMTV and the difference was amazing. Once I get the AC Roof Unit on, I plan to build foam roof insulation and a headliner. Nothing fancy, just a basic unit. Pointman

    Under Pressure!

    Not yet, these are hella expensive and I'd like to eliminate all other possible problems before going there. It would be neat if I could test using a known 'good' one. I would hate to rip this up by going with a manual set up.. Pointman

    Under Pressure!

    Here is the sad part.. Upon start up, I get around 130 psi at the gauge. After its warm, it settles down to around 120. The pressure switch is working and clicks on at 120. I'm still getting 5 flashing lites on the controller..:whistle: Pointman

    Under Pressure!

    In the process of trying to diagnose CTIS issues, I decided to install a small air pressure gauge to find out just what the **** was going on in my wet tank. I drilled and threaded the elbow coming out of the tank (after disassembling the regulator), and used an air gun to remove any latent...

    LMTV Upgrades

    I will be doing both. I have covered my ceiling with sound mat, and will build a headliner in the future. I don't think covering the plastic panels is as evvective, YRMV. My goak was to remove the 'tinniness' of the metal cab bodywork. I'm now looking at a 24V roof mounted AC unit, so I will...

    M1078 fmtv ctis

    So If I have 5 continously blinking lights, I should check the pressure in the third tank? I have already cleaned all of the connectors and used di-electric grease. Still 5 blinking lights. I guess I'll bump up the govenor. Dash gauges show 120 psi.. Pointman

    LMTV Upgrades

    I've had my 1994 LMTV since the end of December. I have installed nearly two packages of sound mat in the cab and on the bottom. The difference is amazing. I'm planning on a headliner and will use cut panels of styrofoam as insulation. Even with the sound mat, I can feel the heat through the...

    LMTV Upgrades

    I just finished installing about 40sq/ft of sound mat in my LMTV cab. I did all of the interior panels and the roof. With the cab lifted, I did the entire bottom and the center section up to the air intake vent. You can actually carry on a conversation in this thing now. Stereo to follow.. Pointman

    M1078 1994, Source for switched 12 power?

    Anyone have an idea where I can access a switched 12 power source inside the cab of the LMTV? I am also trying to install a stereo and a brake control box so I can haul a trailer with electric brakes. I looked for a brake light switch on the foot brake valve and there is none that appears to...
