CTIS transducer swap: Door seals: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/lmtv-door-seal.170988/

Not sure what the price is for a replacement cab latch, but the rebuild kit is only a couple bucks and very easy to do. If there's no "hard part damage" (ie: some kinda of break/crack on the housing, etc ) I'd just rebuild it. There's a thread or two in here somewhere about door seals...

Lil' lube on the shaft works wonders !

Surprised that I've never found a Chinese knockoff of these filters. At $200 a pop there certainly should be. I live in a highly humid environment, but I've only replaced mine once in three years. I even considered swapping to the old style so I could clean/re-use. Yeah, I'm cheap...

Read up on how dangerous those brake cans can be. And be damned careful with 'em if you need to get into one.

Yeah, but he just needs a tan cargo cover. They are a dime a dozen on GP all the time. The shipping though.....

Try a mist of WD40, etc. My truck had that issue and I ordered replacement valves. Then I saw a video where someone suggest getting a little lube down that long hard shaft. What do ya know? It worked and hasn't hissed at me in years. ;p

A lot of folks have turned away from YouTube for the same reasons as they left FB. Rumble is the new normal for videos. https://rumble.com/ ;)

Cheaper to paint the truck than to ship a cargo cover. Green is faster, btw.

Make it look like this: (better yet, add a disconnect) ;)

Yeah, you're going to want to pull two of those batteries reconnect as duals. You never want to run mix-matched batteries in these trucks (you'll kill the alt which will cost you several grand). Given that you got your paper and seeing those batteries and driveshaft (not being "forked"), I...

Unrelated question, but as good a place as any to ask: So, I have a little 24v equalizer on my truck (dual 6TL batteries). I have a little 5a NOCO pulse maintainer (that I move between the two batteries and run periodically). I've wondered how well these two will play together.....charger...

Short answer: no The "driveline" issues that the 4x4 A0 trucks experience is mostly due to the steep downward angle of the rear driveshaft. The 6x6 trucks do not suffer from this design flaw as they kept the driveshafts straight (via an offset for the input at the pumpkin). Later A1R trucks...

Clean looking rig ! Yeah, as suggested you might want to start your own thread. Ether is used to assist in cold starts by very briefly altering the fuel/air mix. The ether is stored in a bottle behind the cab. It looks like a little red c02 bottle. Unscrew it and take it in as an exchange...

So all just to announce you're adding some fancy ice cream freezer to the build?

Ian on FB is the fellow running the Kings. His is an RV build and he also has some sort of air-bag support going on.

Awesome !

Saw a guy on FB that was running King 2.5 Smoothie Bypass. I think the Kings he ran were 21.25” compressed and 35.25" extended. Stock LMTV shocks are 20.94” compressed and 33.26” extended. No info on valving.
