    LMTV (M1079) STOPS RUNNING WHILE DRIVING

    Is this the deprecated EMI/RFI filter box? It was at the rear of our ECM when we pulled to send to you. It wasn't connected to anything at the time, just hanging out—

    LMTV Allison Stall Test issues

    I have been looking at this as well. Also do not care for the location except that when driving off road we always protect the middle, right? Cheaper and easier things to fix are typically near the edges, expensive difficult to fix things in the middle. Tires over rocks, not avoiding them...

    Air brake pressure gauge malfunction in LMTV

    Now you all have me wondering. Our low air alarm goes on and off at about 95#. I typically still have 65# when I fire her up. I usually hold my thumb over the alarm if sitting in the cab during warm up. New goal — rarely if ever hear the low air warning—

    LMTV Passenger Seats

    Our issue is the size. We want a larger box than the 1079 and we enjoy building things. Though if I could design a 1079 to meet by better half's desires that's the way we would go. As it is, Globe Trekker appears better built and more affordable than the other boxes we have looked at for the...

    Reinstalled the CAT 3126B'S reprogramed ECM this afternoon. The difference between 275hp and 330hp is awesome. We'll try to get a similar video to 'merging onto the interstate' for comparison, though the difference, especially uphill is noticeable. I can't recall the last time we were in 7th...
