found my old post on this describing it better https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/ramdough-cab-modifications-build-thread.203839/post-2372605

was able to modify my A0 door limiter to work good again. Issue on mine seemed to be that one end could slide up over head of bolt (something like that. dont recall exactly).. allowing arm to come out of slide.... and even if not come "all" the way out... still open to far and hit cab...

not sure why your even making something of that.... never said he was.... only said with two trucks now.... he has that option to consider now; more so than he did previously. He is always updating/improving stuff.

absolutely and fairly easily. Just copy M1079.... 99% of the parts are already under the bed.

no cracked frames to see.... they were built properly and boxes put on them with this in mind. There is I think only four or five solid boxes on LMTV's out there right now... but only about 4 years?? at most of minimal use..... time will tell... Id expect damage not to show up till 10+ years...

Maybe am thinking German boxes.... thought it was s280 too..... dont they mount with a tie down chain that has a spring or similar item somewhere along the bar, chain, or cable that allows for some flex? Word I got is a retired engineer that was part of the design for M1079 when in...

these chassis medium duty (with a little more strength than average) / like most all medium duty chassis are made to occasionaly haul heavy loads. These also with ruff terrain in mind. But that is NOT all the time loads and that is not loads that are solid (aka they haul bunch of heavy...

@87cr250r they don't make Cardian joints for rigs this big unless they are specialized..... which is anti the plan for military trucks to be mostly off the shelf commercial parts.. Think the high pinion axle..... was how they compensated for that reality.

will see if he changes bed route. Think he has two trucks now so he does not HAVE to keep the bed. In past he had too remove it cause truck was also used for business. (plowing)

check your batteries...... as in you must have solid good 24v into bats AND back out or your transmission will do odd things. Also it may need to re-learn shifting. oh... and thanks for searching first...... That is the right thing to do though TomTime has a point on quoting someone in an...

ahhhhhhh..... so like Ronmars description of a pinched line.. that repair that would in many instances be fine/but not here...... ended up changing the pressure and causing valve to dump.

nice mount mod. question for us that do not have ability to machine this nicely.... what about just cutting across the bottom with sawzall then use grinder to compete the mod. Essentualy just removing the area in the red rectangle and grind small notch to final align hole in the alt's rear...

or too many scums used the Vermont process for stolen vehicles thusly ruining it for good folk. The good get punished..... the bad just go abuse the system some other way..... some other place

@Xengineguy ..... am I correct that Waterloo's compressor mount also go on Driver side? I have one.... just not at stage to mount AC. If so....... does make me wonder if your Idea could be used to mount a second alternator. My concern is would it have enough belt wrap and if it would/would...

am going with delco direct style alt. and already have 24v to 12v convertor that can handle the 12v draw. My military 200 amp conversion went out.... likely a regulator... got two sweet Balmar 100amp 24v alts with muliti chemistry regulators for price of NOS Neihoff regulator. Was going...

My understanding is 14:00s are just being made less (made less available in US? ) cause US military no longer specs them for any vehicles. Some European still does.

Ava8or is not a member here anymore. (or it is bad name spelling?) am curious of his bracket for compressor could instead by used to mount a second alternator. particularly if went to more stock alternator w/ CAT bracket... instead of military one.
