Hi guys,
my LMTV M1078A1 have a defec alternator. Parts from Niehoff are very expensive.
Is a Humvee or an other standard M-Series alternator useable too?
Or can somone give me a NSN number of the orig. one?
On my alternator is no NSN written.
It´s the big one with 400amp.
Best regards Alex

Hi guys,
my LMTV is little to high with the shelter for my "garage".
I saw in the manual to inflate the tires turn the srew from the valve at the rim and push HWY and RUNFLAT togehter.
I have this screw only at the front right and left back rim. If i turn the screw the tires inflate, but only...

Hi together,

Now My 4wheel switch is a little leaky and it smells like diesel if i switch of the...
Hi, i picked up my Shelter yesterday. Was a 680km Trip. Very funny to drive. I drove 80-90km/h.
In contrast to my old Steyr 12m18, my m1078a1 runs better, Little whoble if more than 88km/h. Ok think year 2003 and only 5000miles, the tires need some time.
The steyr is much quiter, think its only...
Hey guys, i saw hyfraulic Fluid next my spear tire. I thinked this Reservoir was for The chemical detector which was installed.
I'm at The Highway with my Truck to pick up my new Shelter and have no tm with me.
Thanks a lot
Hi,
My lmtv makes some noise, i think the axles. Not under load or coasting.
i know the Steyr 12m18 is total Different, i had One and he had the same Noise.
the Truck is a 2003a1 with only 5.400miles.
maybe it makes sense to use a other oil in the axles.
Does anyone know this?

Hi,
i use a belgian Radio Shelter which is about 2.5m Long and only 1,65m high. Little small. Today i put it on my lmtv, and it fits under the Cover, and i can sit behind the Shelter under the Cover.
I will lock for a Gun Ring here in Germany and for a bigger US Shelter with only 2m high. If...
Hi,
i'm looking for a Shelter for my lmtv. But the Truck should not higher than 3,6-3,7m. i found only the s-280 Shelter which is very high. Did the army use a smaller Shelter too?
And is the weapon Ring from m900 Series the Same like lmtv weapon Ring?
best regards alex
Hi together,
i picked uop my new trailer for my M923A2 today.
He brakes very hard and the tires blocks. The trailer is without load. Is that normal? Is there any adjustement for empty or full loaded weight?
In Germany the trailer must have a load adjustment. Automatical or manual. In US not...
Hi guys,

1 for service brake?
1 asa a vent line?

Hi,
i disconnected the ctis at the rims and filled up to 80psi and drove. A new car, no Swings, and faster!
I know that 2 rear rims have Problems that they are empty after a week. I will Chance the o-rings in the two rims first and try it again. I thinked if they have Problems at the rear...
mmmmhhhh. In HWY mode only 60psi? it´s not a lot.
I tried to push the HWY button again if the XC & HWY lights are showing. They flash and try to fill the tires, after 30 minutes both lights stady again. Pressure is to low (about 40-45) and the truck/tires swing.
I think it´s not possible to...
Hi together

But the the HWY lamp flash and show that it fill or try to fill. After 1 hour...
Hi guys,
after 5 days my rear wheel is out of air. I have a leak and want to check where it is. I want to remove the air line between the axle hub and the rim. Do you have an idea how i can seal the line?
Best regards

Hi together,
i need to know the thread size of the brake lines and the air tank.
Can it be that it´s 5/16"?
I need a air pressure check adapter in Germany and for this i need a T-piece.
I think LMTV and M939 are the same. Hope anybody can help me!
Best regards.
