None yet, I’m not looking for a one-off help from someone like serpico mentioned so I didn’t ask him to dig any deeper - I’m looking for an active mechanic who wants regular hours. In the meantime I’ve been doing everything myself but my time is limited.

I'm in Orange County, North Tustin... my truck is a BAE Titan (Cummins) not CAT but everything else besides the motor is the same more or less

Does anyone know of a good LMTV mechanic in the southern CA area? I figure there may be some good ones close given the proximity to Camp Pendleton in San Deigo. Looking for a mechanic that I can build a good relationship with for long-term routine maintenance, PM, etc., as well as to...

excellent question, I’m also curious.. the Goodyear G278 is a great tire… can take a heavy load and on a 22.5” wheel I read that I can be aired down as low as ~15PSI

So y’all will probably color me crazy, but I can’t seem to shake the FMTV as a platform for these expedition trucks (given off-road capabilities) ie they were actually meant for this stuff - whereas some of these earthroamer types weren’t… and even if modified to suit off-road use… departure...

I would really like to thank everyone for their input and thoughts. I spent a couple months researching this BAE platform online before posting this thread. I read dozens upon dozens of pages of the nearly 1K page FMTV service document I found online (government doc for entire family), as far...

Well… I got what I asked for! Several opinions and tons of info to chew on. Silent here for a bit while I consider the various opinions shared so far. By all means, hope to have even more perspectives as well. Very genuinely appreciate all of you who have take time to share with me. As you...

Hello, new member here based in So Cal. I’ve spent some time searching around various posts (to educate myself and so as not to ask a question for the 300th time…). I guess I probably run the risk anyway. In short, I’m looking at an LMTV that was built as a civilian version by BAE systems and...

new member here & also looking at going down similar road. In your opinion, do you think the torsion springs in this application would be insufficien? The truck I’m looking at is mounted like this. I’m familiar with the subframe w/ 4 point pivot - seems better… question is… will springs be...

hey Exon, did you ever end up building? Did you ever find a shop in OC to service and take care of the brazos? Would love to bend your ear sometime - coincidentally I’m kind of in the same boat (and same county!). Looking at buying a 2012 BAE “Titan” (Brazos) already has a camper box.
