    Bellhousing issue

    Howdy fellas... The flywheels differ in bolt pattern depending on the crank using a 1-pc or 2-pc rear seal - Ummm, I'm not a rocket scientist (well, sort of) but you COULD use a 3053 gasket as a bolt pattern guide for drilling the bellhousing... 8) - but I'm no genius I'm working on my...

    3053 trans, OD or not?

    I was under the impression that 3053's were 1:1 in 5th, with the 3053A being a .8- something in 5th... but then, I remembered that I don't do impressions... Make room for me, Offroad.... and don't hog ALL the popcorn this time! :popcorn: "Tanner"

    JLTV

    Errr - sorta true - the tub is new, not a repop Mutt, the suspension is different, with tubular a-arms & coilover air bladder shocks for air-ride & height adjustments. IIRC, the trans & diffs MIGHT be the only carryovers from a Mutt/151... I'd have to strain the grey-matter to recall all the...

    JLTV

    Hey Bob - No issues here - thought you might have had some hands-on in the ITV projects at Rae-Beck. Their vehicle program looks good, but the specs make it appear that it would also be pushing the limits of axle weight allowable for the V22 - I haven't heard anything lately from Gen Dyn or...

    Only swap possibilities that I'm aware of are to have the gears swapped out from stock 5.83's to 4.89's (IIRC) in the stock housings. Tanner

    JLTV

    ...and the last I heard, the Ospreys headed overseas w/o the Growlers in the cargo bay... It's down to a few players now in the JLTV arena - have the specs even been cast in stone yet? Not from what I'm hearing! "Tanner"

    Brand new FMTV spotted

    And TACOM gets visited by civilian product suppliers & "consultants" everyday! And the input from these "consultants*" is listened to & acted upon frequently. The designers are looking to save weight in critical areas, without giving a lot of thought to the survivability of the item in...
