Thanks that is a goldmine of information. How do I find Seth on the forum?

That's interesting. I am leaning toward the same construction as the S-280 shelter which they use on the other trucks. Is there any chance anyone has a photo of the front spring attachment? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk

Sorry to resurrect an old thread. I'm also looking into building a LMTV (M1078) into a camper. I have confirmed the flat bed weighs 1300 lbs. Also I am designing my own box and am very interested in the anti torsional bed. The factory bed is hard attached so I'm now wondering if it prevents or...

aah ok. I am designing an RV box for the back and considering putting a lift gate to put motorcycles and other toys on. I was hoping the military had already done that and I might buy one surplus.

Ooh nice lift gate on rear. How do I get the part number? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk

OK I just looked it up. It has 308' of rope so no extension needed. That's actually pretty nice.

Sorry you used the term "tow weight" which threw me off. The winch is 11k when there there is 1 turn on the drum. The listed truck is 17k so if the wheels don't roll and you are pulling the truck on flat ground the winch won't drag that load. I have no had a chance to read through the self...

I spent some time looking up the branded stuff I could find in the photos. There a bunch of products from Belzona. Some are for rubber repair while most are for metal repair. I was able to find some on an auction site. Those specialty repair epoxies are very expensive. emmado22 have you used...

I'm not defending their claims but I don't know what base MPG they were getting before injection. From my reading it looks like you can increase injected quantities up to a point and you get quench which is not destructive it just causes loss in power.

I'm getting deep into the TMs. I found out there is a BDAR kit that comes with every vehicle to make field repairs and limp to somewhere to get repaired. I have found one on an auction site and it's a bit over priced. I was hoping folks could help me identify all the items so I could build a...

On the posted door plate above I don't see any number called out as rolling weight. Which number is it?

Actually I have a nice 2 speed mile marker hydraulic winch sitting in my garage that I have for another project. If I can get the factory winch to work well enough I won't dig any deeper. I'm not intending on doing a lot of winching. I anticipate pulling other people out a bunch and probably...

ok found the diagram for self recovery.

I have M1078. How do I calculate the rolling weight?

more digging turns up the dodge duramax 6.6 is a very similar engine from what I am reading. It runs 22-24 psi stock. With software mods 26-30. Block can handle 45.

ok after some digging the turbo part number is: 4R9147 . This may make it possible to get the numbers.

I have no idea why after reading through the pool I totally missed noticing it. I honestly wish I had paper copies. :) It's totally my bad.

I'm thinking the parts manual for the M1078 is: m1078_TM 9-2320-365-24P does that sound right?
