    Save them in case you decide to install the eco hub version 2, if everything goes well in the testing phases.

    ECO Hubs Who needs 3:07 gears?

    I can add to your story….Double check and be a sure you torque ALL the bolts!!! In a rush to beat the rain I had snugged the last hubs bolts with a regular impact but forgot do a final torque to all of them. After about 300 miles of driving it was leaking with loose bolts. Had to disassemble...

    LMTV / FMTV Power steering gear box lash adjustment

    Great information, I can’t see any play in the joints so I assumed gear box. I’ll look more closely for joint movement. The steering isn’t horrible just thought if it was an easy adjustment that I would start there. Sounds like having a spare gearbox wouldn’t be a bad thing. Thank you.

    Tire viability vs date code

    Petlas tires are an option! I’ve been a little skeptical but speaking with a friend that is in the tire business says he has no complaints with them makes them a serious consideration.

    Seat upgrade

    I used the second row seats from town and country mini vans. They are leather, come with arm rests, they fit in the space available and relatively cheap. Companies the build the handicap accessible vans pull those seats out and sell them. Typically eBay or something like that. Obviously you have...

    M1078A1 "Pandora" Build | 2024-??? | ***Picture Heavy***

    Not sure. I do know it will work through air in the lines. Because soon after I purchased mine I was driving to fill it up and it ran out of fuel, put 5 gallons in and discovered the primer didn’t work so I had to crank and crank and crank. She finally started running. I wouldn’t recommend that...

    Stretching the bed to the cab...

    Why go through all that trouble and just extend it to the rear? Ive found great use of that space between the cab and the box. My generator, Mini AC, hydronic heater all sits up there.
