    m1078 com antenna

    Wow, I found the upper part of that antenna in my truck when I brought it home. I should do some more digging and see if the lower section is also banging around in one of the compartments.

    Where are the cargo covers for LMTVs?

    I'm sure he will share Tim! I think Al has more than one from his comment... The way I see it, you are next in line![thumbzup]

    Where are the cargo covers for LMTVs?

    I got dibs on camo Al! I bet I can get to Dover before anyone else. :driver:

    Where are the cargo covers for LMTVs?

    I looked these up and they appear to be the FMTV (longer bed) and not the 12.5 ft LMTV. The price is great though and included free shipping.

    Upgrades to my HMMWV

    Very nice work Darwin. I love the Air Lift rear bumpers. Does the spare now block view of the license plate? It looks that way in the photos, but can't tell for sure.

    M1078 inspections needed

    Suprman advised me on the window crank. 1980's vintage Volvo cranks fit and work. They are all over the big auction site for $10-15 shipped. I found a black one for $9.99

    Working on the M1078 LMTV

    Wouldn't unplugging the solenoid behind the kick panel also cause the fan to come on? Of course you would have to have your nut driver and correct socket along for the cover bolts. Mark, I'm glad it snapped to life and started working once you lowered the cab and got underway.

    FMTV questions

    That sounds correct as the rear is a full floating axle setup and fluid from the rear diff can flow out to the bearings at the hubs. I believe filling properly at the rear diff plug is correct lubrication for hubs. The LO addresses this by calling out one lube for the rear and has separate...

    Simp5782 - SS Tumblers

    Thanks to Wes for having these tumblers made. I bought two and love them. Not many know about them, so I thought I'd post up my thanks to Wes. These are a great exposure for our site and the hobby in general. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wiOIMrkJ0pc...

    HMMWV 2 Man M998 cargo cover question. Anyone ever do a chop top on the cargo?

    I found a tan HMMWV cargo cover in the bed of my LMTV when purchased. I'll let it go cheap if someone needs one for experimentation.

    Hurricane and LMTV

    Please be safe! Dirty water hides lots of stuff. I know we feel in invincible in the big trucks, but soil gets washed away, sinkholes happen submerged hazards... roads wash out. Hanksdeuce just spent days helping in Louisiana last month. He had a helper much of the time. Definitely use a spotter...

    Engine cooling fan not working problem solved!

    I just sorted out a fan issue myself, but it involved the air solenoid behind the passenger kick panel. It is much quieter with that working properly! Now we can build some heat since the weather is starting to turn more fall-like.

    Did anyone here win this auction? M1089A1 6X6 Wrecker

    Not me, but that looks like a nice truck for the money from the winning price quoted on the auction site. The description says it runs, drives, and all equipment works! Cool rig.

    Lift questions

    It seems like the civilian H1 aftermarket has some options available. I googled "hummer h1 lift kit". Many links can up. Several also mention military applications like this one...

    Newbie from Evansville In.

    Welcome from Nashville! You are in a good location. It seems like lots of resources come out of Ft. Campbell and many north of you are in the hobby as well.

    Can I give 1/2 a vote to two different vehicles? You guys are already making the choice very difficult!

    Army PS Magazine Index of all FMTV Articles with Subject, Issue, and Page Numbers

    I just installed the PS magazine app on my iPhone. It seems like a decent way to get to current and prior information. Normal app vs. desktop website usability disclaimers apply.

    New (to me) 1997 M1081

    Congrats sjohn116! It sounds like we've arrived at the place of LMTV discovery about the same time! We will likely be able to learn together as we get familiar with our trucks. I have good glass, so I can't help there. I also "had" two working door handles. Unfortunately, the passenger side is...
