I have the TM on my computer but I am not sure how to share or load here to the TM section. In a previous comment on this post it was stated that these trailers have CTIS. That is incorrect. They have CTIS valves on the wheels but are capped and only there so they may be interchanged with the...
You may check with a local NG or Reserve unit and ask if you can inspect one of theirs. Of course they will be operating A4s so the T-case position may be different due to the Cat engine and 7 spd Allison in them.
I am looking for a digital copy/PDF of the M1074/1075 A/C installation TM. TB 9-2320-364-13&P-1 If anyone can help me out without having to sign up, or supply a CC number that would be great. Thanks for any help.
I guess technically my M985 would be an R1 too as it went through a "0" reset program at Oshkosh in 2001 where is was rebuilt as a "New", 0 miles truck with warranty.
Backing the M105 behind an MTVR would be interesting. I used one behind my HEMTT and hated it. I upgraded to an M1082 FMTVT unit and it is much easier to back. If you are looking for a cargo trailer it may be the best or an M1095 for the MTVR. Just my opinion, you mileage may vary.....
Has anyone looked at doing away with the planetaries in all the hubs and going to a direct drive? I would think that would increase speed albeit at the cost of low end torque.
That is not a bead lock I removed there. That is a runflat and isn't the same as a bead lock. Bead locks are just a rubber or rubber/metal piece that forces the tire bead against the rim and will not allow it to slide in under low air pressures. Weight of a bead lock can be from 5-10 lbs. The...
If you have a truck (P/U or such) that has a receiver on the front I would think it would be easier to maneuver those trailers by pushing and having direct sight and steering right at hitch point. Never tried but I think the logic stands.
Does anyone have a picture and information regarding the rear center troop seats? I am picking up 2 NOS kits that are listed as "Troop Seats, center" for FMTV. Part #
57K2092 NSN 5240-01-560-4317. I can't seem to find any pictures or info other than the manufacturer and GP pictures of item. Any...
You location in Ozona tells me those are definitely flying out of Laughlin AFB by Del Rio. I was stationed there for 3 1/2 years a long time before the T-6. I worked T37s and T38s.
I can't help with the diagram but I do know they have a different operation than most. Mine locks in all gears but also has to unlock before shift. So if you watch the tach for RPM changes it will appear to have 12 shifts. That is in a trans that is up to temp. That Allison doesn't like to shift...
