    A1 Exhaust Reroute

    What prevents this kind of setup from having excess rain fill up the exhaust/turbo/cylinders? Obviously the slash cut outlet helps some.

    Tow eye dimensions

    Awesome, thanks I'll check if it will fit and post up. Yeah fmtv 1.0" compared to mtvr 1.5". That said the FMTV is still rated 65,000 lb WLL

    Tow eye dimensions

    Wondering if my FMTV tow feet will work with some sleeves (1.0") to be able to move the MTVR around. Could someone please take these two measurements?

    From fire truck to MTV

    I did, but there just wasn't enough room to fab the structure needed for those ISO mounts - I wanted to keep the box as low as possible and with the battery box and fuel tank locations it just wouldn't work. Having compliance between the box and frame was very important and if using the ISO...

    From fire truck to MTV

    I may do this as we plan to go out quite a bit in the cold. Looks like a simple install.

    Looking for M1078A1 ABS troubleshooting guide

    My truck was also MME, and my breaker was also pulled. After various diagnosing and trying to talk to the ABS computer (with some strange results, I think it wasn't quite dead) I took the thing apart and found water intrusion. Trying to find another one was a little tricky, I bought a...

    Have an FMTV, how is the MTVR in comparison?

    11370136 Sale: 10/16/24 Submitted to govplanet 10/17 Review 10/21 Submitted to TSC 11/14 Looks like we bought ours at a good time, no more MTVRs (or even FMTVs) listed on govplanet.

    Intermittent check engine light at max speed/RPM

    I just had to replace my boost pressure sensor. Over $200 and a real pain to get to. Was happy with the straight thread/o-ring seal though. On a C7.

    How well does AC in the MTVR work?

    Two slightly different scans. Note there are some differences in the AC kits and these both seem like slightly older versions of the instructions.

    What have you done to your MTVR today?

    Looks pretty solid. There seems to be some funky wiring going on by the pedals and in one of the engine shots. Looking at the volt meter it may very well just be batteries. Good to see "Runs" written on the hood.

    Alternate Alternator Selection

    It's been a while so take with a grain of salt, but I thought there were two standards for pad mounts and we have the mounting holes for both.

    Looking to Purchase an LMTV

    Sound like the right choice. Even with a great example, there are still tons of maintenance items to tackle.

    A1r 1079 up for auction

    He won't get a straight answer because there isn't a straight solution. Depends on the state your carrier which person you call. I called progressive to try to insure mine and they said they absolutely cannot do it, then I happen to mention USAA and then the situation apparently changed, they...

    FMTV 6x6 cage bolts.

    You need short ones for the cans where the shock won't allow the longer ones. You could have only short ones if you wanted.

    MTVR ECM Configure File

    MTVR ECM Configure File

    Found some more info. Wonder what the difference in the armored flashes is? The only thing I can find about the change from 220-4351 to 220-4352 is the 4352 is called "clean power". Found this document on the "armored" flash files. I would assume both the non-armored have the same issue...

    Have an FMTV, how is the MTVR in comparison?

    Just too bad shipping is going to be around 4K since I'm about a thousand miles away.

    Looking to Purchase an LMTV

    I didn't find my MTV bad in the snow, live on a steep hill in WI. It's a heavy truck but probably the long wheelbase, 6x6 help compared to the lmtv though. I could climb the hill that many neighbors had their cars stuck at the bottom.

    From fire truck to MTV

    Another weekend trip in the books. This one was about 1.5 hours away. Started off by seeing the CTIS constantly trying to adjust to HWY. The front QRV was hissing air, indicating the front wheels valves weren't closing. This caused an imbalance in the front and two rear axles. I just unplugged...
