Dang, I'm too cheap on my tires apparently!

14.00's are basically non-existent from surplus and modern ones are not cost efficient i.e. shipping from Europe, etc. Your options are 395s or 16.00s, both of which are plentiful, available, and fit your rims without any modifications. I have both tires in stock and put them on most M923 trucks...

I'd like to know too. It's a rare/odd piece.

retiredwarhorses is great, if not above all. If you're looking for a good runner on a budget have 10 in my motorpool looking for a home.

MWME is a A1P2 LTAS converted from an A1R. The sister M1089A1P2 model sold on ebay a few years ago that came from the same program destined for an oversea country but didn't make it. They were all A1Rs and converted to order and I know because I inquired about them and their very minty batch of...

It sounds good on paper until you actually have one IF you can find one. The ones released have been very few and far between of which most are M1078A1Rs, a good portion of those are rebuilt/repurchased trucks converted from existing M1078"A0"s so quality is so-so. The only two M1085A1Rs I've...

Throwing some first hand info into this conversation.. I've gathered solid info direct from Allison about our 3700SP (note not 3070) in the A1R trucks capable of 370 hp. Our units are rated for a sustained 935 lb-ft input and a 370 hp flash to the C7 gives a 928 lb-ft of torque at peak output...

Mine could be put in the mail.

I too have a small item there that needs to be picked up. I'm looking for someone and will touch base with you if I find someone.

Yup, I remember making notes about it on facebook. The data plates are all kinds of screwy as is the door dimensions plate (M1087A1.. yeah ok). It's a pretty sweet find so discover he secrets before you/if you part ways with her. I've been curious if the truck was an M1085 prior to getting the...

Do you have the part number for the barometric sensor? I'm glad you got it working again. The 330hp really wakes it up!

After you add the habitat apparatus, trailer, contents, etc you will feel a difference between the 3116 and 3126, even more so if you change gears. You can swap turbos and change the injection pump on the 3116 to get 290 hp out of it but that's top end without a major investment. The 3126 you...

I watch Matt's channel and he comes across as a genuine guy with passion for old iron of all sorts. I know he acquired a HMMWV for fun around the form and now that he obtained a deuce I'm thinking of reaching out to him for support. He has a M172 trailer for his dozer and autocar tractor too...

A thank you to everyone who voted and who keep the hobby alive! :beer: I'll share more details about the M113 and a wild life story when I get a moment to breathe.

It's the unit that came with the truck from what I know.

Thank you and I hope so. I don't have any nekkid ladies hanging off her yet to sway other voters yet. :p My understanding is that this vehicle was an A3 in its previous life (unconfirmed) but was purchased back by the OEM to make the modifications for this new variant. It was explained to me as...

She was the first M113A4 produced by FMC Corp/BAE Systems as a proof of concept and later set up all the tooling to produce the A4 family. She was literally the box that all the ideas were combined to see if it worked and it did very well. I've come to name her "Stacy's Mom" being the mother of...

You can get a year or so out of painting them but they will crack and flake. There's no way around it as it's a material flexing thing. Shipping isn't bad but you have to fold it right. I believe I have a LMTV tan cover (used) but I'll need to unfold it to check the overall condition.

The ECM can stay on the engine. It is 12v. Only equipment (excavator, etc) are 24v. If in doubt putting 12v to a 24 system won't hurt it, it just won't power on. Put 24v on a 12v circuit and it will work great for a brief moment. rofl

You'll need to plug directly into the ECM and hook the harness up to 12v for it to power up. Unfortunately once the ECM is in this state you can't recover the trim settings or personality module which puts you in a pickle as it's specific to your engine. You'll need to get a copy from another...
