I have a 2003 LMTV with a Caterpillar 3126. When I begin slowing down or almost come to a complete stop the air brake engages (jerking - grabbing). I believe its a feature to help stop when pulling a heavy load. Is there an adjustment anywhere so that it won't do it.

Having trouble with installing newer tires on my LMTV. I have the older steel 2 piece rims with CTIS fitting. Can't get them to stop leaking. Any ideas?

I need to take the door panel off my 2003 LMTV since my window will not move up and down. I can get everything off but the window crank. It seems to have a black plastic cover but don't want to break it if it's not meant to come off. Any tricks.

I was manually pumping up my cab and the seal from the cab lock blew out. Any advice on how to replace it? Does it run off the same hydraulic fluid as the steering system? Thanks

I am looking to replace the plastic grill that I have. There was a member advertising custom LMTV grills. Does anyone have contact info for him. Thanks

The grill I have is flimsy and cracked. Checking to see if anyone makes a metal replacement or may have a used one in good shape. Thanks

I have a 2003 Stewart Stevenson LMTV. I need to add steering fluid. Does it have to be Hydraulic Steering Fluid. And if so where do you get it? Thanks

Have a small leak from my steering gear box in my LMTV. Is this something you can have repaired or must it be replaced. Thanks

Changing the oil in my 3126B Caterpillar. Cat swears it holds 19 quarts. I'm at 21 quarts and nothing on the dip stick. Does anyone have an idea of what it should hold. Looks like a shallow sump oil pan. Thanks for your help.

I have a 2003 LMTV with 3126 Caterpillar. My fan runs all the time. I looked at it the other day and realized there is a hose that is missing that goes to a fitting on top of fan shroud and then to the clutch itself. I will probably have to get one made - does anyone have a picture of...

I have an oil leak and cant figure out where its coming from. The engine itself looks pretty good. I have attached a photo of what i think may cause it. I have two of these on my truck under engine - driver's side and passenger side. It looks like it has a fitting where a hose should...

Any suggestions on where I can get (2) new dash switches. Mine don't light up. I need fan shut off and next to it check light switch. Also, has anyone taken the old horn off and added anything a little louder. Thanks

I am preparing for hurricane in the Jacksonville area. May get a bad storm surge and have the ability to help people in need. How deep can you get an LMTV and keep it running without ruining it. Thanks

I have an A1 LMTV with a 3126 Caterpillar. When I am slowing down and transmission downshifts. The closer I come to a stop the hard it jerks. I think its an air brake that probably should only be on when pulling a trailer. Any ideas? Thanks,

Two quick questions. My LMTV seems to shift hard from first to second, then after that pretty smooth. Is this common? and when I press D (drive) it goes straight to 7. Also, my blinkers only seem to work when all the lights are active. Any suggestions! Thanks

The paint on my LMTV looks great after a rain. It seems to make the faded colors come back. Has anyone ever clear coated over the original paint instead of painting.

I am missing the aluminum pull valve that lets the cab down. I have it capped off for now but would like to put new one on. Does anyone know where to find one. Thanks

Still having trouble starting my LMTV. Has to be a wiring issue. Have installed a new fuse panel, new ignition rocker switch (which now gets power). Battery's are all new. Push red ignition switch and nothing. I saw a video on how to start an LMTV and it showed the owner pressing the...

Does anyone know what manufacture makes the rocker switches on the dash above the steering wheel. For example the ignition switch with squiggly line. I am pretty sure its a US based company. Thanks

I have an LMTV that I need help with. Can anyone recommend a good mechanic in the Jacksonville, Fl area to help with getting it going. Thanks
