    Have an FMTV, how is the MTVR in comparison?

    When I scanned my ecms most of the time was idle time. Maybe a few hours at full cruising highway speeds. 20k gets your foot in the door. Like I said the small stuff missing can make it easily 30-40k. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Nhc-250 vs 6cta dump truck

    Occasional on highway use unloaded will do just fine. Not a speed demon by any means though. Loaded at 45+ is where the stock NA NHC 250 gets painful.

    Nhc-250 vs 6cta dump truck

    Hey man welcome from north ga. I absolutely love my a2 truck but unfortunately for site work the a1/0 is the better truck. Every single other use the a2 is better IMO. Basically any highway use get an a2.

    Felt the same about my MTVR Ac Kits. Everything was so nice and packaged but boy it was way too hot to not install it.

    Have an FMTV, how is the MTVR in comparison?

    You are absolutely right on the parts department. I am currently parting out 2 mtvrs at reasonable prices for as many parts as possible to try to alleviate this issue. The build quality on a mtvr is far far far higher than any fmtv i have worked on and even higher than the m939. All grounds are...

    I respect the full send. Needed more initial velocity and that concrete block not in the bed and you may have made it out. looks like your rear just sank.

    MTVR ECM Configure File

    ANOTHER REMINDER!!!! ALWAYS COPY YOUR CONFIGURATION FROM YOUR TRUCK AND SAVE IT IN A SAFE PLACE AND EVEN MANUALLY WRITE DOWN YOUR INJECTOR TRIM CODES!!!!!! I totally forgot and flashed the 505 which 90% of the time resets your configuration and you will have to pull the valve cover at a minimum...

    School me on Cat ET kits

    I agree so distributing those TM's free of cost would help the hobby tremendously but in fact distribution of them at all is illegal because the a1r tm is not for distribution.

    School me on Cat ET kits

    IDK what you mean by interpreting the code at all. You simply connect the adapter to the laptop and open the program you want to diagnose and select j1707 for anything but the engine which is j1939 protocol and the software will tell you the error code then you can diagnose the problem from...

    As swiss stated before this was my introduction into the MV hobby. I thought the project of converting the truck into a dump truck would be a fantastic learning experience and taking care of the truck entirely on my own teaching me responsibility. Some of the Ideas that Ron had were good on...

    New guy advise

    I would take my m932a2 anywhere and do anything with it. The 8.3 contrary to popular belief is plenty fast when it is turned up with some mods and I can cruise at 72mph with 395s or 76 with 14.00s. Plenty of power to tow, offroad capability, stops good, really no complaints.

    Your ABSOLUTE BEST OPTION for your missing cab parts will be midwest military equipment. 14k is the CHEAPEST you will find doors and a roof for.
