    LMTV Lug nut size

    Minimum thread engagement should always be 1x diameter. Ideal thread engagement is 1.5x diameter. A standard tap for a 5/8" stud can tap a maximum of 1.23" because 15/16" is the max ideal depth and the first several threads of a tap don't cut full threads.... Ironically 5/8" nuts are only 9/16"...

    I'm in Ohio and my '98 M1079 titled as an RV without a problem. After investing $1000's in just upgrades to the basic rig, in addition to the costs of the RV components, "Historical" or "Offroad" use doesn't do me a bit of good. Maybe a baseless worry, but once things become laws in some...

    LMTV as an RV in California

    I'm in Ohio. Got my SF97 from the GSA, had a DMV guy inspect/verify the VIN against the paperwork, took his form, bill of sale and SF97 to the title office and since the M1079 is a "van" I had no problem getting an RV title without even showing the rig to them.

    M1078 Air/Hydraulic Pump Electric Replacement

    I picked up a hydraulic lift gate pump. It's 12vdc. The problem is using a single acting pump does not provide for a return, they traditionally activate single acting cylinders and bleed back through the pressure port. When I get a chance I'm going to try to port the return into the vent port...

    I have joined the club ! And yes I have lost my mine !

    Since this has its own fuel pump, I'm curious why you didn't run off the main fuel tank? If the pump has enough lift capability, the tank return line is a safe place to T into. The pickup is about 4" off the bottom, that way it can't run the tank dry.

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    Data spec sheet say 55.4' curb to curb. I'm trying to keep the pad in front of the 36' wide garage as shallow as possible... I don't mind a little maneuvering to get lined up with the 12' wide door, so can it be done in 30' ???

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    I'm planning a building to house my M1079. Coming in at a right angle, how much room is needed to turn the LMTV into the door? It appears the turning radius is 35' per the TM. Does that mean a 20ft pad is sufficient to make a 90 degree turn?
