"Claiming they are illegal to uninformed FMV owner's is a good sales pitch" is not a fair statement at all. We are here to service this community, not dupe it.
I started this thread simply to gauge interest from the group, which seems to be positive. One member asked what the...
aleigh - nothing necessarily "wrong" with military MVLS, except it is not intuitive for people that aren't as familiar with driving military vehicles and they may inadvertently drive without brake lights or turn signals. Our goal is to improve safety and make FMTV's easier and more intuitive...

Do I understand you are planning on replacing a 4x4 rear axle with a 6x6 rear axle to achieve high pinion differential gear set?
If so, we can order a new high pinion gear set (in any ratio, with or without locker) new from Meritor with a warranty. They're not cheap, but perhaps...
Hey guys-
We have high speed gears available now (and always) here. We also stock Detroit style lockers and can install them before shipping.
THANK YOU!
C'mon up anytime - we'd all love to check out the rig!
We have the high speed gears and lockers ready to go.
Thanks for the compliments and let us know if there's anything else we can/should be doing!
Thanks everyone for your support...we sold quite a few ...would certainly appreciate any feedback from buyers (for our possible improvement and for the group at large).
Thank you!

Hello all-
We currently manufacture a replacement keyed ignition switch and a civilian headlight switch for our Acela Monterras (some photos attached).
The ignition switch is pretty much plug and play...maybe a 30 minute install that requires drilling out the existing starter button hole and...
Haha!!
We've been out plowing as well....Can you say F U N !!!! Over 30" of snow in last 2 weeks...a very white Christmas indeed.
These trucks are absolute snow plow monsters! We've been experimenting a lot with siped and studded tires as well.
If anyone's interested in FMTV plow...
Most likely you need to rebuild the cab latch - there are two different styles...one with a single o-ring and one with two o-rings - you'll only need the o-ring(s) to fix if that's the problem. Search the forum for PN's.
Good luck!
Agreed...burning inside...BAD...fumes, flames...plus burning gas, diesel or propane will fill the interior with condensation. This is why almost all high-end expedition vehicles use electric cooktops...highly recommended. Kenyon makes a good product in a ton of configurations. My 2 cents -...
LOTS of red flags here...I've never seen or heard of an M1081A1.
Ad says 1995 - so couldn't have a 3126, 275HP or MD 3070 PT.
Pix of dash are definitely from an A0, not A1
smokin man-
We have an A0-A1 comparison chart here: https://fmtvtrucks.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/13/F03_A0-A1_Comparison.pdf
We also have an FAQ page here that may shed some light on FMTVs in general and comparing A0s to A1s.
Let us know if we can be of help!!
Haha...I happen to have an LMTV with a snow plow!!...I assure you that I, my friends and my neighbors have EXCELLENT road access!
The rest of my fellow Montanans can use the registration taxes :)
