It can be done, it just takes a little work. I had a local glass shop cut a piece of glass and glue it in place. Endless Adventures had great DIY YouTube Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the response, I’m definitely going to look into this. I will keep you posted on my results.

Thanks for the help, the front glad hands are back on and everything is working like it should.

Oh man…this makes perfect sense! Two days ago I capped off the front glad hands, just because I never dreamed of needing them. I will definitely try this first, thank you.

I did a thing tonight and I’m not sure if what I did was bad or did something mess up. After working on my M1078 A0 changing the passenger mirror, I released the parking brake and let the truck roll back against a wheel chalk about ten feet away, my driveway is relatively flat but I didn’t want...

Make sure to pack the bearings good on the "dry" side of the hub, other wise the inside bearings and the outside bearings will be wet from the gear oil.

I took my brake shoes off, maybe they are in the way and stiff springs are making it difficult to remove the hub. Hey, if what you did works, then run with it.

Glad to see you figured it out, now lets talk about the long list of toys you have listed. I like the pic you posted of your LMTV, where did you find such a clean ride?

It should slide off, from what I remember when I did mine there is nothing stopping the hub from coming off from the looks of this pic.

I had to replace both left and right seals on the front axle and I just put back regular gear oil in the hubs. IMO the hardest part was getting the tire off and pulling the brake drum off, had to back the brakes off a little for the drum to come off. Pay close attention to how everything comes...

I agree, if you can find a private sale that would be the best bet. Something is going on with these auction sites and they are taking the fun out of bidding for something that is a want and not a need.

Wow, nice ride you have there. Welcome to the group.

Everybody wants one, I can see a trend here. I love my 1078 wish I could drive it more.

I use mine to launch my boat on the sandy beaches where we live. Just the cost of a blown up transmission in a regular pickup truck is equal to my m1078. Plus it has made me some money pulling people out of the soft sand in there 4x4's.

Welcome to the club, this truck is one fun vehicle. Enjoy

I think the first weekend of November in the small town of Terlingua, Texas they have an annual chili cook-off. The entire region fills up with people and is quite fun from what I've heard. Terlingua is right next to Big Bend, kind of like the last or first stop depending on witch way you are...

Thanks Pointman, now that you described it I think mine is running fine but if not I will contact you.

I have a question, should the fan spin freely when the motor is off? I try to move the fan by hand and it is VERY stiff, but I do notice that it turns on when it starts to get over 200 degrees but only for a few seconds then goes off again.

I finally received my SF97 after purchasing a LMTV back in March, I'm guessing they are over whelmed but they will get to it eventually.

This is interesting, I thought I was the only person waiting for my SF97. I purchased my truck back in March and every time I call they tell me they are very busy, busy counting the money I sent them I'm sure.
