    Moving the spare tire carrier and breather assembly.

    Enjoy it! if you get up to northern idaho to try it out maybe we can hook up. I talked to chris at vermont unimog and he said he had brought in 4 of the steyr 12m18 one went to Canada don't remember where he said the others went. Oh well I think I can get there with the 1078 it will just be...

    Moving the spare tire carrier and breather assembly.

    That thing is gorgeous! Congratulations. Would really be a blast checking out its capabilities. If you happen to be in the right place at the right time and hear of a steyr 12m18 they looked at once then forgot about and you don't buy it for yourself please let me know.

    Moving the spare tire carrier and breather assembly.

    I certainly agree on looking one over will have to do that soon. Does anyone know anyone in the guard in spokane Washington? Or coure d Alene ID? I will make a road trip but I don't know if you don't know someone if you can just walk in and say hey can I really look one of your trucks over with...

    Moving the spare tire carrier and breather assembly.

    This website has great pics of the lmtv http://www.toadmanstankpictures.com/m1078.htm this pic I think shows the hoses going to the ram in the bottom left http://www.toadmanstankpictures.com/m1078_10.jpg i think after looking at these maybe remove tire carrier and rack and come up with a...

    Moving the spare tire carrier and breather assembly.

    Hmmmm that makes it more difficult would be nice to see how steyr did it. My first thought is to do large air shocks like giant lift gate ones coupled with something heavy I know you said the tire would be too heavy. But that is my first thought. Another I had was add a front winch and build a...

    Moving the spare tire carrier and breather assembly.

    Well after all it sounds like it might be doable if I can come up with a way to remove all that and still be able to raise the cab without blowing out my back. I wasn't aware that they went to such great lengths to make it not a steyr. But now that I am It is what it is. With the prices...

    Moving the spare tire carrier and breather assembly.

    Does the hydraulic air motor pump create the air pressure for the brakes or is it a stand alone system for the tire and cab lift? i guess It would have been too tough to just put in an auto tranny and leave the rest a steyr. Or at least a lot more than 4 parts. Thank you again for your time...

    Moving the spare tire carrier and breather assembly.

    Thank you very much for letting me look at your pictures. And taking the time to answer my questions. Your 1094 sure makes your Haflinger look small. You went through a ton of work to make it look as nice as it does now! After looking at your pics of course it now leaves me with new...

    Moving the spare tire carrier and breather assembly.

    That is disheartening to hear. Unfortunately where I live in the sticks there aren't any lmtv's to look at the local guard unit has the hemt. I will have to try to look at them if I get to spokane. Sure wish there was a way to get around the 25% import tax.

    Moving the spare tire carrier and breather assembly.

    I am not sure where to put the tire. I have seen them on the steyr under the frame also on a custom mount in from of the grill or on the enclosure on the rear using a hoist of some sort. Is the hydraulic jack motor and reservoir run off a jack shaft or belt and pulley? Maybe put it remote and...

    Moving the spare tire carrier and breather assembly.

    I know anything can be done but how tough would it be move the spare tire lift and hydraulic assembly controls (dont know if the control panel would be required)as well as the breather to be able to put a shelter further forward so I can have larger living quarters and pass through. Thanks Jamie
