    M1078 Alternator Problem

    If I connect the AC cable to the 12v alt terminal, will that shutoff the light? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    M1078 Alternator Problem

    Tested all my gauges and most of them work [emoji23]... but in all seriousness I been keeping an eye on the batteries this whole time. Been to Cabo and back with the same alternator. If they weren’t charging I would still be in Cabo lol. It works perfect. Just have to try it out if you don’t...

    M1078 Alternator Problem

    I have not. Not a lot of water in my area. More of a desert environment. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    M1078 Alternator Problem

    I didn’t change a thing ... I still get the charging system light in the dash but the system is charging fine. The light is from the load and battery control box. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    M1078 Alternator Problem

    Complete plug and play. All I used was the 12/24/Ground leads already on the truck. Been running that alternator a few thousand miles already with no electrical issues. The fact that’s off-the-shelf parts, it can be rebuilt anywhere in the world. You can’t do that with the original alternator...

    M1088A1 CTIS pressure adjustment

    Yes. If you change the CTIS to an LMTV model it will change the tire pressure. Rides much better with lower tire pressure too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Dual alternator

    Give Ron from Double-alt.com a call. Much cheaper replacement dual charging alternator than the originals. The alternator is made from common alternator parts that can be change/replace/fix by any alternator shop. We have over 2500 miles on ours and still running strong. The current output on...

    FMTV engine won’t start ... engine oil pressure?

    Call it a bad short or what but I had to disconnect and reconnect the oil sensor and it started right up. Not sure why it did what it did but thank guys for the help. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    FMTV engine won’t start ... engine oil pressure?

    I did an oil change on my M1088 and I can’t seem to get it to turn. Before, I always noticed that I needed to see the Engine Oil Pressure Light on before I would let me push start. After the oils change I can’t seem to get Engine Oil Pressure ... please help, what am I doing wrong? Sent from...

    FMTV suspension?

    I was asking about the hockey pucks you are describing. Not the leaf springs Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    FMTV suspension?

    Can those be replaced with some airbags you think?

    FMTV 2” hitch

    The originals were used. But in case some models have different bolts it shouldn’t be hard to source new bolts for it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    FMTV 2” hitch

    Yeah it looks like it would definitely fit a M1083. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    FMTV 2” hitch

    Not sure if anybody has done this. We needed to pull a normal (non-pintle hitch) trailer with our M1088 that we made into a flat bed so we came up with this hitch design. Just add a drop hitch and you are good to go. Anybody interested in one just let me know. Not sure if it would fit an LMTV...

    M1078 Alternator Problem

    Works flawlessly. The only regret is not finding Ron from double alternator any sooner. I bought a replacement original and it didn't last either. If you are having problems with your FMTV alternator the double alternator from Ron is the way to go. It's built with off the shelf parts so it's...

    Tire balancing

    Excellent suggestion ... I'll move the tires and see what that does Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tire balancing

    Yeah around 55 or so. I will look at the alignment. My old worn tires never gave me any trouble. I changed them and now I get this shimmy Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
