I'd like to see some pics of the pedal area you repaired, and the linkage adjustments. Mine apparently had rust holes in the floor and they patched over it with an aluminum plate, and formed an aluminum piece to hold the rear of the pedal, then riveted it all down. I think it makes the rear of...

The straps go down behind the lower bar, back up and through the buckle. The extra hanging strap, which will be facing you and hangs over the buckles in the pictures, is used to secure the sides of the tarp if you roll up the sides. When you roll up the sides, those extra straps go under the...

With the upgraded kit, are the power cables a larger gauge wire? Is the alternator pulley a different size than what comes on the 100A alternator? Thinking a swap might be easier if those two parts could be reused.

Try only giving it like 1/2 throttle pedal when it is cold; experiment with giving it less than wide open throttle when it is cold. Mine behaves similar. Since mine has a winch I also have a tachometer and if I keep the RPM's in the green range, it shifts just fine when it's cold. Any more...

I picked up one too but have not installed it. I will probably wait until one of my existing valves starts leaking. The ports are marked so you might be able to just match them up based on that. The combination valve I think will use at least one less hose since the valves are interconnected...

How do you know it is putting out 100 amps continuously? Are you using a clamp meter? For something to draw that much current there has to be a big malfunction, maybe the load control unit like Suprman suggested.

I have been wondering if the fan clutch solenoid is operating properly because the truck seemed to be running a little hot. For the last few months I have only taken it on relatively short drives and haven't had much chance to get the truck up to full temp and keep it there. Yesterday I drove...

Where did you purchase the replacement parts? Luckily mine is good, but it would be nice to know the options for spare parts.

I think mine is having a similar problem. I took the solenoid apart, and there isn't much to repair with it. I put it back together and started applying power repeatedly using a couple jumper wires. I could then start hearing a faint clicking when power was removed, but I had to have it right...

It's in the transmission controller. As soon as you flip the PTO switch, the transmission shifts to N if it isn't already there. I doubt it has to be in neutral for it to function mechanically. I think maybe they do this so you can't run out the winch cable and then overload the cable or...

The standard hydraulics for the cab, spare tire, etc are air over hydraulic and wouldn't be enough. The winch trucks have a transmission mounted PTO hydraulic pump to run the winch. One downside of that system is that the transmission is locked in neutral whenever you engage the PTO. If you...

Oil Filter = 1R-1807 Fuel Filter = 1R-0751 Water Separator Filter ? This is for an LMTV with CAT 3116 engine. Not sure about filters for the newer engines.

Mine has started doing this same thing. The temp rises but I never hear the air release to engage the fan clutch. Flipping the fan disengage switch off and on does nothing. I drove it a few weeks ago and after stopping for a while with the engine shut down, it started working again. Drove it...

Can you post more information about the adapter, software, etc? I am also interested in checking the throttle linkage like you describe. On my truck, which is a 93 model, I have noticed that it seems to be finicky about how it shifts. When you first start driving and the engine temp is not...

I'm interested in the 200amp alternator swap. Post some details of what is different between the 100amp system and the upgraded system. I was wondering if the wires are heavier gauge, is the pulley on the alternator really different, etc.

Look on the data plate. If yours has a D stamped on it, then it received the driveshaft fix. From what I have read on here, all of them should have had that work done. There is a thread on here somewhere that tells all of this.

This might be the way to go, for the tie rod at least. You could get a tie rod built with DOM tubing and threaded on the end so you just thread in the tie rod ends and use jam nuts to hold the adjustment.

The truck does start in second unless you put it into "MODE" which is not supposed to be used on hard surfaces like the road. Not sure about the higher ratio transmission, that would spin the driveshaft faster, and there is a thread here already about a study done on the FMTV driveshafts...

The park brake dash valve is a Haldex KN20035. The trailer dash valve is a Haldex KN20025. On these first generation trucks those two valves are separate. On newer trucks they are integrated into a single valve assembly which is also serviceable. Maybe one day I will swap out the two...
