Correct. CAT ET is only a programming tool, it doesn't have the library on it. If you have an active subscription to CAT ET you can pull flash files and check compatibility with the engine which is the focus of the program. CAT does issue physical flash libraries to certain organizations but...

Yes on FML and FMM serial based engines (in FMTVs). I covered this in more detail in a past thread. Good reading. rofl https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/3126-w-abs-vs-3116.212526/post-2487456

Drove a M1088 with these in the cab. No complaints. :beer:

"Resurrected" this M1078A1R that was disabled by one bad ground. :p Did ALL the bushings, fuel lines, tires, and paint. She's mint now and got pep.

It's in California and owned by a movie prop business. That truck was one of a few sold from S&S to foreign buyers that didn't follow through. I bid on the sister donor cab for parts and it too was right hand drive but it was sparse for anything truly usable. I was able to acquire a few other...

I can't say I'm displeased at them going under. My local YRC delivery guy said the writing was on the wall since last October and many of the "lifers" had already begun jumping ship. They've had about a 50% misdelivery or damage rate with my LTL shipments. They're the reason my NOS military air...

I've been selling these handles for years and people have been incredibly creative with them. They are designed for the mounting/dismounting off the rear of LMTVs. I've seen HMMWVs, deuces, and more use them. They could be an "oh $hit" handle on the deuce dash. Food for thought.

I covered this in a few past posts and believe the A1 trucks between 2003-2004 would be the clear winners in my opinion. They have the 3126 and fall in a narrow serial range where they received many of the newer truck upgrades that became standard on the 2006+ A1R models. Battery disconnect...

The technical term for the FMTV A2's is "FUGLY". The only truck with more character is the M35A3 which looks suspiciously like Sid the Sloth.

Rags to riches story for this ROPS M923A2. It was a 2 year slow burn type project that deserved it. Auction acquired 2 years ago with the help of Wes. She was given to the State of Indiana's Forestry Service but the location was 40 miles off any hardball road. The site was staffed by convict...

What size bed is on it? Any more photos you'd be willing to share?

It really depends what you're moving and what trailer. I've had 3 HMMWVs hauled at a time and it cost me about $2600. I had time and waited for my price.

Plenty of times.

I'll toss in my M923A2 ROPS truck.

You'll need to share pictures, operational condition, and title status to get a better idea of value. I've seen Gama Goats sell for $3500-$15,000 in the last 3 years. It depends on a lot of factors.

People have put 16.00r20s on M1088s so..

Finished up this project that will make someone's dream come true. This winch model M1078 had a bad engine so I gave it another Cat but from an MTV. With 290 horses under the hood (cab?) and 16.00's it will move. When the turbo spools it puts your butt in the seat. It was painted, doors rebuilt...

They get the tires from the same source as all the other surplus guys.

Slap some raggedy-@ss used HMMWV doors on them and roll on. They're cheap. rofl

I've inadvertently gotten into beekeeping this week with one of my 5 tons. The bees have been impressively busy for only such a short time but allegedly this isn't the first time for this truck to attract a swarm. Fortunately, one of my guys had the equipment and experience to relocate them...
