    Who saw the new TV show Diesel brothers?

    Wasn't a bad show but seemed to be alot of drama. All that work on the chevy and the interior goes up spontainiously in flames from some torch work. Then I had to cringe when the sprayed the 4BT with starting fluid because it hadn't been primed with fuel yet. Another point was how the owner...

    Mounting a snow plow on a LMTV 1078 First Post

    That plow would look awesome on there and probably work just as well. Mine is working great, at keeping the white stuff away. I am finally prepared for the snow and it was 73 degrees on Christmas. Go figure. How wide is that plow? I know the military kit from Arrowhead uses a 9' fisher.

    Mounting a snow plow on a LMTV 1078 First Post

    Thanks for all the compliments. I can't wait to use it this year. The plow that goes with it is an 8' fisher that has been extended to 10'-6". I had one heck of a fight last year with a pick up trying to push all the snow on a mile long drive way. My luck is this year we will have hardly any...

    Mounting a snow plow on a LMTV 1078 First Post

    The mount is fully welded now and the plow hooks up great. Now it is time to get all the wiring done and auxillary lights on the truck. I hope this truck and plow will help me keep up with the snow on my 1 mile long driveway. More pictures to come once it is complete.

    Where are you finding the material list for making the fisher frame plate. If someone has it saved could you please email it to me. I am in the process of putting a fisher plow on my M1078. I was going to make my own mounts just from their install pictures but if someone has dimensions that...

    M920 trans issue

    From your second post it seems like you are questioning about adding it direct to the trans. If i read that wrong I appologize and don't mean any offense by it. What NDT is saying is there are air pressure lines going to the trans for the proper operation. the air tool oil needs to be added...

    LMTV and Gov Planets oil sample analysis

    I know that typically high copper and iron in trans fluid means clutch wear. What I am tryin to figure out is what a "normal" or high level is. From all the oil analysis websites I have looked at a one time sample and test such as GP does is useless. It seems that what you look for is any...

    LMTV and Gov Planets oil sample analysis

    What should you look for when looking at one of these samples? I have notice that copper and iron levels are higher than other levels in the transmission. Does anyone know what is an acceptable/ average level? Do these readings say the trans is bad?
