    Roll in passenger Window Gasket

    On my 1078A1, when I roll a passenger window up, the gasket rides up with it. Any ideas where I would be able to get replacement gaskets that have tabs in place and are nicely playable?

    M1078 Starter Replacement

    I think the plan is to refurbish the existing starter and get another one if reasonably priced. Is the M0017705ME, which I have, interchangable with the M0017730ME ?

    Yearly Tow Plans for your FMTV and other vehicles

    Good points about the policy and reimbursments ( Next time I will try the re-imbrusment route, nothing to loose..). I did read the policy and to me it seems the AAA policy has a paragraph that explicitly excludes the "non RV" LMTVs from the policy. The queote follows: "Box vans, cube vans...

    Yearly Tow Plans for your FMTV and other vehicles

    Yeah, I was broke, and AAA refused the coverage in WA. They asked for the make and after that for weight. They would call for me a support, but would come out of my pocket. I do have AAA RV coverage..

    Yearly Tow Plans for your FMTV and other vehicles

    In WA the AAA with my premier membership is refusing the tow of LMTV, did ring SAM and they said they would not cover it either.. So another option would be good.

    Wipers, Horn, Sprayer Not Working

    My wipers, horn and sprayer are not working. I am pretty certain the reason for that is that the plastic connector with 3x4 connector holes (under the control panel) is disconnected. I think that is one of the two connectors from directional control arm ( note my turn signals, light switches...
