    Cab air suspension leak from manifold

    Here's a follow-on question for yah: mine leaks and I can't remove it from the truck...Due to some idiot private using red loctite on it... Any ideas? Can I even take the leveler apart or is there a way to unbolt the entire mounting bracket?

    Air Tools

    I've got a pair of tool bags I keep in my truck. One is hand tools and the other is air tools and a hose with gladhand on one end chuck on the other. Total bill from harbor freight was 85 bucks. Now the air tools can't break lugs loose, but it's a crap load faster once they are broken loose to...

    Just picked up my M1078 so I am starting on this new adventure

    You need the LMTV service kit. MTV is the 3 axel beast, so save a few pennies and just get the LMTV one. I bought the service kit from fleabay and it had everything I needed for my truck. Regarding fluids, rural king as low cost ATF that meets spec for the truck. Oil too. If your running red...

    A few mods done to my 1078

    Oh I like the light idea. Doing this on pass side, as my Cb antenna is on driver's side. Going to wire mine up so I can swap between my big whip (business class radio) and the light. Great idea!

    1078 stuck brake

    An update to this. Warm day, fired up, waited until the low air alarm STFU (reaaaally need to put that silence switch in) No problems, went out for a hour long run in rush hour traffic (max braking use to check for damage due to ice) Not a problem, all good. New air dryer was waiting at home...

    1078 stuck brake

    The rest of the brakes release just fine. The lower one is being a pain. I'll try the hammer tomorrow at noon. Yes, I'm using the older style air dryer. It's on my list to upgrade, now been bumped to the top of it. What's the part number?

    1078 stuck brake

    Needed the truck for work this morning. Warmed up for 20 minutes (17 deg morning) went to drive off, won't go. Rear passenger side lower shoe is stuck. I drain each night after running, close the tanks off, no major leaks, brakes work great. I don't have access to a heated shop to warm the...

    MO FMTV guys would you PM me please.

    At this point, I'd be tempted to say call a congressmen or the like. A single call from someone high up will usually light a fire under their butt and get lost paperwork found FAST.

    Troop Seat Question

    I didn't have the clips on mine so I just fold the seats DOWN flush with the sides when I need the room. Makes opening the side panels a pain, but eh, it's free.

    MO FMTV guys would you PM me please.

    Yeah, same. Once the bill of sale arrived, my local office was more then happy to do it. Is it legal for a stl member to do it for you? I can hand deliver it to my local iffice if so. Which office was it? So we can avoid this shenanigans. I need to get mine inspected soon, starting to have...

    MO FMTV guys would you PM me please.

    Who lost the docs, iron or DMV? My local DMV didn't care and once I had the bill of sale was done in 15 minutes.
