PM becomes available after you have X number of post in X time frame (to fast your a spammer) . It is a common bulletin board built in spam protection thing. Can't post pics either. Think it is only 5 conversation post.

Excellent points. Luckly for me ... same reason needing lot of bolster allows me to slip by them in mounting the cab.... am skinny lol. Being pretty much a life long gymnast helps too.

will be interesting to watch the testing as he digs into it more

if you go offroad..... then get something with good side seat bolsters to limit bebopping side to side. Your spine will thank you and you will be less tired on such drives

that rules out an Acert being swapped in it, so unless it is an odd animal (and it happens) its a 3116 (aka..... engine swapped in later up the road by military... usually have black valve cover) so you should have giant sticker on top of yellow valve cover...

is top of engine (valve cover) yellow or black?

check where harness plugs into transmission. Also someone while back pinched one of the harnesses in bottom of transmission as they re-installed pan. Something to think about.

isn't these trucks; beside the better engine ..... maybe alternator........ (but doubt it since the trans is same alison at 24v) exactly same as FMTV? Axles..... gee's there is bunch of them out there.. but yeah you will have to wait on the mail. So plan on towing a Jeep or similar to get...

if you have not had it balanced yet....... Just take it to a big rig driveline shop and have them go thru it and balance it.

IMHO....... pull it out..... put a Tach there and somewhere else put a GPS based speedometer.

except for AWD tail end of the transmission..... it is a standard heavy Allison Trans. Standard keypad with different programming for AWD. Axles.... not bad. In fact your in game at good time. see thread on Echo Hubs in here. CTIS...... PITA but their are options pretty much everything...

amount of overhang brings arse end toward ground realllllllll fast......... granted not as fast than a twuck whose arse end is 2ft high yet w/ overhang........ but still way faster than you are likely envisioning, If you had similar overhang on your box truck..... then ignore me.... your...

would it be correct to say that is early A1 and below is later A1 as in the A1r). PS- someone grab and copy these pics to here..... this ad's images will go bye bye soon. Not in position to grab images right now or I would https://www.ebay.com/itm/225524309669

look close at your MTV truck. Note that portion of the transmission sites above the upper chassis rail. To clear the transmission you will need either a third chassis rail.... or put a dog house in you box to hump over it; if the floor plan allows for it.

you will find more info on mechanical side of things in the FMTV forum on this board. Pretty sure their is a thread or two on removing the second trans cooler. Thing someone even layed it down between frame rails and kept it.

there is numerous threads in here on this. Searching them out and reviewing them will give you some hints on the needed socket sizes. This will help lead you to buying a kit that happens to include all or most of the socket sizes you need. Usually I think there are three sockets in the kits.

should be able to make ones from parts of ones for hummer. seen them on ebay

could. just cut access door for camper door to swing open.. or drop the side with added chains to form a slight deck.
