Hello, I have a second fuel tank in excellent shape for a 2002 m1078 A1 in Reno NV. I don't always check email, call 775-815-92_26 Price: $800 obo Josh

Hello, While replacing my oil sending unit and pressure switch (buzzer/warning light) I researched what is typical for cat 3126b engines for my A1 m1078. Our parts list shows a 15psi Napa buzzer switch, but 10psi is more common and expected. In fact it is possible the original could be a...

This has been a great community. When I joined it was a great forum, but probably just a real handful of people using these trucks for the outback, it has been great to see more get into the hands of us civilians, and with them the increase in how-to's and such. The only disadvantage is in the...

Hello LMTV friends, Well I have been on here since 2020, but don't post much. I have made some amazing contacts, with Suprman being at the top of the list of parts and advice over the years. My LMTV was modified extensively over the years, and I have taken on a LOT of projects from the forum...

Yes please, 2002 A1

The first check I would make on my truck would be to check batt voltage but if good, I would use a screwdriver and jump the starter solenoid. If that worked, then I would suspect K19 relay and try jumping to defeat lockout as test. If it doesn't start with the screwdriver, I would hit the...

Hello all, I wanted to post this as a reference thread for anyone dealing with Allison transmission issues. There isn’t much consolidated info on Steel Soldiers about how these problems actually get resolved, so this is less of a question and more of a full summary of my issue and final fix...

As an update - The solenoid was replaced, as was a new internal filter replaced (There is a suction side filter housing available from Allison). This is an internal filter in addition to the two external filters. Getting the control valve body back in place is a real bear, no two ways about...

Thanks Ronmar, Super helpful. From what I can tell 29507453 which cross references to 5945-01-360-5161 which when searching Allison parts also returns 29537371 so based on this knowledge I believe that 29537371 supercedes 29507453. I appreciate the haelp, and will go to my best Allison dealer...

Thanks Suprman, You have been an incredible help to me over the years, from packaging a transfer case and sending to Reno, and even some phone support at times. Your knowledge is epic. For the life of me, I can't find the exploded diagrams or any reference to the transmission solenoid part...

Hello, I have visually identified and found resistance issues with Solenoid D and E in the transmission of a 2002 A1 M1078 with the WTECIII 3070sp. Where would one find the part numbers for the solenoids? I read the numbers off of them, and they have a top number of 7371 / does that map to...

sooooooo… we opened up a clean valve body, and solenoid D was half unplugged, and E which was the coded short to ground looks like some degraded material. Stranger yet was a 3 inch long 1/2” stick wedged in a corner. No metal shavings and the fluid and filters spotless. I had flushed to...

Thank you! Will review

Hello, 2002 LMTV - M1078 A1 WTEC III After dealing with transmission codes, we have tested the harness, Trans ECM, and all values to find the cause of 44-16 which is a short to ground of the "E" Solenoid. I have been told it is usually wiring, but after a month of testing, we can;t identify...
