This is search results of that site for 1088 TM's http://www.liberatedmanuals.com/search.mpl?q=M1088&Search=Search
once I peel out the specific links for the 6x6's from this I'll post back with...
Have argued your same points before many a time. It's a rule of thumb argument though and not an exact science.
Can't deny that there appears to be a history of issues in the rear driveline. So much so that studies to resolve rear driveline issues were conducted. changes made, engineer...
Good to know. If you were wanting little extra assurance of longevity by tilting rear axle upward some to improve things... how much would you suggest; now that you've done measurements.
Non of his mods had anything to do with this issue so there was no difference in GovPlanet Crap shoot....... well in second thought, it appeared to be better odds buying from Ben since drive line had just been done by a shop.
Anyway... it was all put back to bone stock; except the ROP, and...
Agree that there was something amiss that caused the issue while at same time though is it not likely that the steep driveline angle exacerbates such issues compared to ones less steep? Could it be the 2008+ trucks going to a single 6x6 axle be for this very reason?
PS- seller agrees something...

Ahhh.. good info. Was under impression these would already be high speed axles and only front would have to be changed if one wanted to go that route. So all the 6x6's are same ratio as the 1078?
sorry guess I did not make that clear enough. Goal is to reduce potential issues associated with the steep angle of the rear drive line by going with either a CV style drive line or; as being explored in this thread,..... going to a 1083 style rear axle with the offset differential box. As has...
Looking at how to potentially reduced rear drive line angle. My freshly installed "by a shop" rear driveline came off and destroyed my Tcase on my 1078. Really don't want that to happen again especially since more reading has pointed out that this is a semi-common issue the military never...
thank you. and when searching thru the TM or any other document it is much more efficient to know the name of the item your searching for. If I find it before someone post up will happily report the name here for any future readers with the same curiosity.
thank you. If you are referring to axle Ring and Pinion ratio that makes perfect sense.
Question is the Differential sitting in same location left to right of the ends of the axles when compared to 1078 axles. Photo's show the offset input unit box/thingy moves the input both up and to one...
1. For TM search purposes- what is the unit, Gear box?? Relocation Box?? called on the Intermediate rear 6x6 axles that allows input of drive shaft to be higher above pumpkin and of course allows for a secondary drive shaft to similar box on the rear most axle. Does the one on the rear axle have...
