Good day today. Picked up my auction tire assembly. Gov Planet is 40 miles away and they have some future stuff piled up! Changed the front hub oil. One was 9 Fluid OZ and the other had 16 Fluid OZ in it. the 10 oz was dirty and the 16 was new with new silicone on the cover plate. Both magnets...
Based on my research, I am in the beginning planning stages to address driveline concerns. Do the MTV 6x6s have the same frequency of driveline concerns/issues as the LMTV 4x4s? Im wondering if I should move them up the list or keep them mid list. What I need to do is a 10-mile run to warm up...
I'm not sure what the better battery brands are but these are in stock and nearby. They say "wet" so i'm assuming lead acid!? thoughts??

I read this like 10 times. I think you are on to something. The remaining post is halfway through the nut. I think you could tig the center of the hole/stud then tig another nut on that nut the thread in a new post. I know a guy.....🤞
Here is a shot of the batteries that are supposed to be a year old. Also a pic of the shunt. The shunt is on my list to be bypassed. OO battery cable is $10 a foot at Napa. I was going to get the whole 50-foot roll and replace everything until he said it was $500..... Uh.... NO...
What a day. Have you ever seen the video where the marathon runner is leading the race then 5 feet from the finish line he falls and someone else wins??! Yep, me. Today I tore out the batteries. Drove to Napa and bought everything I needed to convert to 2 batteries. Made the cables, charged up...
Someone from here drew this. I forgot who but credit to him. Get rid of NATO Plug and do a disconnect. Room in front of the battery box for a tender and Ronmar's equalizer mod? Maybe carry a spare battery. going to order some oo cable and connectors. ill order enough cable to be able to bypass...
OK. So, let's do 2 batteries. I'm assuming I'll keep the inner 2. (Closest to the frame.) can you point me to a basic diagram? If you notice the above pic, the frayed wire and broken terminal were on the 24v positive terminal? (Positive on the inner left battery) ... So those wires, I'm thinking...
well, here goes todays update. Started the truck and noticed we went from 22.7v to 24.1. Right at the edge on the green bar on the voltmeter. It's all over the place. After reading a ton of threads, the consensus was to make sure the batteries were in good shape. So, I pop the cover and found 2...
It arrived today. I watched everyone's videos for weeks and made notes on stuff to get. The one I got is braided stainless. The drivelines are on the list.
When I lower the cab, it sets in a locking device with a red tipped pin. It was my understanding that when the red pin recedes, the cab is locked. Mine is always sticking out. I might take it apart tomorrow and see if the red tipped pin is seized. I did buy the O-ring kit for it as a precaution....
