    Lots of Questions about 4L80E Swaps

    Thinking of the 4x2 HMMWV rod project concept and working back from a 41 inch rear tires, with 410 gear, at 70 mph I would need 2350 rpm. Allison 545 does not have an overdrive, but does have 4 gears. A gas 350 chevy seems a better fit than diesel at cross country cruise speed 2350 tranny...

    Checking the FMTV fan system

    Gotcha, thanks! How about a rebuild kit for the stock version? Mine operates fine, it just needs the ring at the end of the plunger replaced. It leaks pretty severely when the engine controls are switched off. I took it apart to lube it like other threads have said to do. I found the ring...

    Checking the FMTV fan system

    Nope totally different. HMMWV is hydraulic and FMTV is air

    Checking the FMTV fan system

    I don't think so. One is air and the other is hydraulic.

    Checking the FMTV fan system

    Does anyone know if a fan clutch solenoid from a HMMWV will work for LMTV/FMTV's? I know there'll be some wiring and air line plumbing issues but I just want to know if it can work. Thanks!

    Allison 1545 Automatic Transmission Specs

    No, go back in this thread and it gives the shift sequence. Going from 2 to 3 the converter is unlocked. Then the converter locks while in 3 and is locked when going from 3 to 4. That puts a lot of strain on the 4th clutch pack that could be avoided. The parts I reference are high...

    Allison 1545 Automatic Transmission Specs

    The transmission is supposed to unlock between 3rd and 4th gear. And thank you for the 4L80E mention. That's a pretty common transmission outside HMMWV applications, I think, so it shouldn't be hard to get those parts!

    How the fan/cadillac valve/time delay modules work

    Fantastic info! Thanks so much.

    How the fan/cadillac valve/time delay modules work

    I just posted this on the G503 site and thought it might be a fitting addition to SS for all those New-to-Me HMMWV owners. This is one of the circuits in the HMMWV that is probably the most misunderstad because it works backwards from what your common sense tells you. The gold colored valve is...

    Red dot ac install

    Do you have any idea where I can get parts? The check sensors light started blinking after I unplugged and cleaned the 2 relays in the evaporator. I can’t find any place to get parts I put my model # in online and nothing comes up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Red dot ac install

    My guess would be that either one of the switches or the wiring is having some type of issue. It's not a complicated system, if it's working correctly then: The manual I linked earlier has a troubleshooting section that, while it isn't specific for the HMMWV, it does cover the basics. Go to...

    Fan Clutch rebuild

    Does the fan attach to the front? Any more pictures? What year model of Caddy?

    Fan Clutch rebuild

    This is a thermostatic clutch out of an old Cadillac that I adapted to the HMMWV pulley. I cut off the 4 tabs on the front of the pulley and then put a 1" piece of 1/2" conduit into the center to co-locate the 2 pieces. It eliminates the fan clutch nuisance.

    Allison 1545 Automatic Transmission Specs

    Welcome! And you have a pretty rare truck in an M36A3! I think you should start another topic and post pics :cool: The locking transmissions eliminate losses between the engine and transmission through the fluid coupling (torque converter) in 3rd and 4th gear, increasing fuel efficiency. In...

    Fan Solenoid replacement

    Both are approximately a 10w viscosity with different additive packages. Power stg fluid has anti foam additives and ATF has additives suitable for internal transmission clutches, valves, etc. A little mixing of both won't be the end of the world. Different topic, but 5 ton's routinely have...

    Fan Solenoid replacement

    Thank you again. Do you use Teflon tape on the Cadillac valve connections I’m going to change it tomm? I see nothing happen on a cold start disconnecting the solenoid plug Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Fan Solenoid replacement

    I got to say "The 2X4 in the fan test is just plain crazy" said that and another word that can't be written LOL. That's why I painted a stripe to clearly see crutch action. Once one gets a feel for the goings on (proper operation) with the system it will make more sense between lock up and...

    Fan Solenoid replacement

    I replaced my fan drive switch and time delay and fan still runs at all times. Only thing left is Cadillac valve or fan clutch. I’m at wits end lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
