    Huge mistake. I won a GP auction…. Cali FMTV Project “ ‘Merica”

    I thought your front driveshaft was bent as well? I would highly suggest you look into the u-joint puller tool, these caps can be stupid stuck in the yokes. Wasting hours pounding and cussing is not good use of your time out there.

    Oil pressure issue

    Are you experiencing the no oil pressure issue while cranking or while briefly running? If only cranking, maybe that is not enough speed to build up sufficient pressure. I would check mine but it's down at the moment. Maybe the oil filter is not filled yet? The pump does not look horrible.

    Battery cables

    The box will have a conduit attached that will feed into a grommet hole in the cab floor. Positive cable goes from battery to starter, negative goes from battery to frame rail underneath cab.

    Considering early 2000 LMTV for FD high water rescue work, question...

    General Truck Body Co of Houston TX makes this for LMTVs. If you open all the gear cases after fording and find no water intrusion, you are good to go. Be sure to train your guys about hitting the fan off switch before entering water.

    Looks good! PM me if you need a windshield frame. Does the data plate say 1966?

    M 715 Kit Question

    I would imagine the SECM would have a big ol hydraulic jack in lieu of the screw jack.

    Sounds like trouble

    Check your driveshaft phasing. Check your hub spider gears. One or both is your problem.

    If you head over to the 715zone, someone has a picture posted of the correct one, and it does not look like yours.

    M925A2 reverse issue

    If the shifter is not placing the valve body control into the full detent position, this could cause anomalies. This “slipping” upon engagement could also be related to pistons in the valve body and servos being a bit stiff from lack of use. He should take it out and drive the crap out of it...

    M925A2 reverse issue

    If the transfer case drives in forward, it would be highly unusual for it to not drive in reverse.

    Switch not working

    What about the connector at the fuse box? Did you wiggle something loose?
