Collecting while driving reminded me that once the torque converter is locked the rpm's are tied to speed and gearing, not the pedal. So, generally in 2C and 3C the pedal % and rpm's above matched, even under an uphill load. Though watching our Bluefire glass dash readouts added in the engine...

Here is the data we found using our Dearborn DPA III plus (thank you @GeneralDisorder I am grateful to have this equipment) while in neutral under no load. Essentially, linear until the last 20%. I will say the lag time is significant in the Dearborn software in comparison to our Bluefire...

The link shows that listing sold in December and provides no information about what was sold. Here is our unit: The pin out of the M939A2 model is different than the pin out of the M1078A1 model and caused a fault in our J1939 diagnostic wiring path which burned up R12 and R13 resistors. We...

Ours does not come on when changing CTIS modes. Though we have seen ABS lit while off roading in SAND. I read this reference you shared to be normal though caused by "road conditions" not CTIS mode setting. Also it is referring you to the "off-road ABS information" nearby in the manual...

Right. We have an M1078, @338ken has a M35A3. We helped him find insurance and have been trying to help with registration, too. No one is trying or suggesting to title or register vehicles falsely, thank you for your comments—

We have a Texas title and registration; no parade plates. I sent my secretary to the courthouse with the previous title, bill of sale, dealer affidavit, U130 and a check: no issues in Kerr County. She came back with plates, the state mailed us the title. Our title lists — vehicle...

Not yet. The pedal feed runs up under the dash instrumentation panel, so I haven't pulled the connecting plug. My comment is based on the Williams Controls (Curtiss-Wright) publication downloaded from their website, (graph posted above). The control voltage to the ECM is clearly linear...

Good suggestion. I have been looking at throttle controllers. Interestingly, all are advertised to 'punch' acceleration and reduce throttle lag. Of course, my goal is to reduce pedal sensitivity especially at the low end. The Williams Controls WM-526 pedal in our truck has a linear (straight...

Thank you. I appreciate it. I was wondering if that might be the case. For our Jeeps you can purchase aftermarket throttle controls, that might be the way to go here, too—

Duh. I was stuck on your ABS comment. I found the Williams Controls WM-526 product PDF, though still looking for how to adjust the feed. I may just have to mess with it to self learn/find the best setting—

Is that likely than the system seeing different tire spin speeds? We did have opportunies for that when ledge climbing. Since this was the first time we had off road on technical trails my technique was less than optimal—

The ABS system activated while trying to double pedal up some ledges. While on the trails I was thinking about our older Jeeps and how we used the emergency brake levers to help control descents. Good ideas some one to contemplate. Perhaps @olly hondro I am thinking in our use case we will...

It looks like the M1079's fully loaded are 53%/47%. As we start moving the habitat plan from 2D to 3D shooting to distribute the weight similar to an M1079 sounds like the plan. All I know for sure now is that with an empty bed we were front heavy, not balanced. Not good off road–

You are up. Which ones are you looking to 'drop' in?

I haven't driven these in snow or ice as yet, though on sand and mud the AWD is not my choice. Something about the 30/70 does not feel solid. In MODE's 50/50 mix she powers through much more cofidently. There is more than the power band to high crawl ratios. I am not the type to rock crawl...

Absolutely. We noticed that too. That may be a reason to move the potable water toward the rear rather than keeping it close to the original center of mass—

Enjoy your build and godspeed—

I agree. Even running the factory CTIS on SAND in MODE we never lacked for power/torque; we ran out of traction over and over. Watch the video, traction is what slowed us down on climbing the ledges. Adding a rock to reduce the 90º vertical heights, we climbed right up. We did not find...

That may be, though the ledges would still be quite difficult to climb up and down even with the reductions. Traction was our only issue, not power. We had plenty of power. Our use case will include removing the bed (-2,800#) adding a torsion free frame and habitat (+4,000# loaded); adding...
