Posted tons of pictures in the first link to the build thread on pirate4x4, but they blocked those links for some reason. Sucks, and this site won't let me upload pics from my phone. Sorry.

Adapting a 1966 Chevy cab to an M1031 chassis. Retaining 24V system, using the 1966 wiring harness for cab controls and instruments, and CUCV chassis/engine harness. Working on splicing the two harnesses together now, making some changes/upgrades at the same time. Slow going, but is coming...

Dual alternators AND ac?

There's enough room to fit an 18k lb warn MRAP winch between the frame rails and behind the stock bumper, it's tight, but fits with minimal trimming.

Did you ever get yours running?

Have one of the APU's out of an M88A2 that I'm probably not going to end up using any time soon, shoot me an email if any of you want it (jesus@gatosbros.com).

How much for all?

Management. This forum is a great resource, but don't like the way it's run. Their site, their rules, yeah yeah, get it. But think it sucks.

Thanks, gonna give it a try.

Wondering about spinning a 400A 28V DC alternator with an MEP-002A. Have a bunch of 002's and bought a few of those (MRAP/LMTV?) alternators at auction a whole ago. Seems like it would be pretty easy to machine an adapter that would allow a pulley to be bolted to the fan to drive an alternator...

Was just saying that I searched before posting and didn't find that thread. It was the shifter button. Thanks again.

Searched but didnt find that. Very helpful, thank you.

Engine stalls when shifted out of neutral, into drive (yes, PTO disengaged). My brother is suggesting that it may be a air solenoid that controls torque converter lockup? Not finding anything in TM's, can anybody point me in the right direction?

So which version/s of these generators/trailers are upgradeable to auto-start?

tractor + knuckleboom + truhitch = most versatile combo

Have a 1079 here and would not hesitate to remove that C-channel subframe and add wheelwells/drivetrain clearance. No big deal. A lot of these guys don't like modifying military trucks, and seem to think that it's impossible to improve on anything designed/built by the OEM's. If you want to put...

Spicer 3053A out of a multifuel deuce is much cheaper, stronger, and had a wider gear spread than the NV4500, worth looking into if you have room to run a divorced transfer-case. Putting one in my M1031 with a divorced NP205...

Military trucks registered as historical vehicles in CA are exempt from emissions requirements, but when I see people posting pictures and videos of **** like that blast of smoke it makes me wonder for how long...

Bought a few to turn into alaskan camper-style units, should receive them in sometime this week.

How high do these things lift? Like, what kind of angle? Looks like maybe about 30-degrees? Wondering if might be able to use as light dump trailer, in addition to hauling containers.
