    Seek wisdom on the better vehicle to convert to a camping rig..

    Yeah, one thing about Eastern Supply, if they show an item and it says, "call for price", that means they don't have any in stock.

    M1078 - M1083 Cab Air Suspension Bags/

    By the way, I remember reading a past post here on SS, someone replacing the air bags with an aftermarket air bag but I can't seem to fine it at this time. If I find it I will post it. With that said, and I know they are somewhat $$$,but I'm still considering going with these...

    M1078 - M1083 Cab Air Suspension Bags/

    The ones in the video are Firestone. Does Power Packer make Firestone products??? I would be very, very careful with this website. When checked it looks like a scam site (?) Per Scamdoc.com this website was just created this year. Again, be careful...if it sounds to good to be true, it usually...

    Mav’s M1088A1 Conversion

    I have replaced the three rings that is on the pump piston shaft with generic O-rings last year and so far, works good and no leaks. I don't think you can get into the pump itself (I may be wrong about that, I just haven't found anything different) but you can repair the leak at the piston shaft...

    Video Of FMTV RV Build, Cool Interior.

    Well, I finally got myself a shelter for the bed of Myrtle, my M1083A1, to convert into a habitat. I've been looking around for ideas for the build and looking at numerous videos. I seen this video today of a build, but what got my attention was the interior of the cab. They even have a...

    What have you done to your FMTV or LMTV today

    Like ramdough said, it’s what you prefer. Me, I live near mountain areas where there are a lot of tree and the camo fits right in where as a tan color stands out. I passed on numerous vehicles because they were tan and waited for the right camo truck to bid on. Either way you go will be good! As...

    Need to put it on YouTube then and put the link on SS. It’s my understanding that SS will not accept a direct video.

    New M-1083 owner. So, here we go!!

    From everything I've read on SS about vibration issues on these trucks, I would not take a chance on driving it with out having them checked and balance. You could drive the truck hundreds or thousands of mile and be okay or you could drive 10 miles down the road and something breaks. It's a...

    M1088a1 disconnect switch relay problem

    I had a similar problem with the starting my engine from the starter button in the cab. But, it would start by jumping the relay on the frame by the starter. I had cleaned and checked everything everyone suggested and what it said to check in the TM's. Still no start and no K11 lite. @Ronmar...

    New M-1083 owner. So, here we go!!

    Yeah you had me thrown with the "red tipped" pin. Mine was not red tipped with paint(?) When I received my truck it was leaking and the pin would not release because it was leaking. I rebuilt mine. Probably best to go ahead and rebuild the cab latch then you won't have to worry about it in the...

    Missing SF97 Info

    Yeah that’s what they coded it as on type, “PK” it is for pickup truck. They coded it that even though they seen the GVWR as just over 31k.

    Missing SF97 Info

    I don’t think GovPlanet will change it to that since it is not an RV. If you are registering it in GA then you would have to check with GA DMV to see how they would do that and if you would have to prove it is a RV.

    MVA has “PK” for body style on title and temp reg.
