    Saving money on CAT parts

    Recently I replaced a pulley on my 3116. I priced it at a CAT, and it was around $230. Using this company I paid $65. Quality is good. Is aftermarket part. I have no financial interest in this company. https://aftermarket.express

    New Arduino-based FMTV CTIS controller ROCKS!

    Here is the documentation that comes with Christian's CTIS controller. Straight-forward and easy to understand.

    Have you checked your bellhousing for oil?

    It's a temp fix, that can buy you some time until you can pull the engine or whatever. If you have a blown trans seal, and use the Alison trans fluid, should be red.

    New Arduino-based FMTV CTIS controller ROCKS!

    Did you have a bad day or something? I said electronic, not electrical. I considers those connectors ELECTRICAL. I'm talking about chips and IC's, SCRs, diodes, transistors, etc. . THERE'S A DIFFERENCE. It is WELL-DOCUMENTED that Chinese sourcing of EELCTRONIC parts can be hit or miss because...

    ATP AT 205 is calling your name. Or that gantry that you've always wanted, can now be yours!

    Have you checked your bellhousing for oil?

    I check my bell housing oil every day and make sure it is between the lines ; ) Hate to run low. Might damage the CAT O strophic converter.

    New Arduino-based FMTV CTIS controller ROCKS!

    DigiKey is the best, particularly if you are sourcing electronic parts. If you buy off of, say E Auction sites, you are likely getting China rejects. No really!

    New Arduino-based FMTV CTIS controller ROCKS!

    Well, I think I figured out (at least in part) why my rear 4 tires don't dump air. This fitting shows that the 3/8" 3 way T was ripped off the inside of the passenger side frame rail. How that happened, I have no idea. New bulk head fitting ordered through Amazon.

    New Arduino-based FMTV CTIS controller ROCKS!

    Hmmm I wonder about handling characteristics, operating at different pressures. It would be an interesting experiment though.

    A review of the polyurethane bushing replacements / upgrade for FMTV sway bars

    I did not measure them unfortunately. All I did was flip the bushing around and drew a line between the two slits in the bushing, using a small metal ruler. Then I flipped the bushing back around. You can see the slits in the picture. This is mod would seem to be Caveman approved : )

    A review of the polyurethane bushing replacements / upgrade for FMTV sway bars

    Just wanted to do a quick review of the FMTV/MTV sway bar bushing upgrades available from Awesomeness/ Guido. The install was fairly easy on my M1088. One large bolt on the passenger side gave me grief, so I cut it off. There are essentially 3 pieces that need to line up, so it would be best to...
