By the way, 24V is for the starter, pretty much everything else is 12V. "CAB" hydraulic button is not a "release". CAB should be enabled so that the cab suspension is active. If you drive with it disabled,, you can pinch your cab airbags. The cap lock is a function of the "Raise" & "Lower" functions. The cab lock automatically disables when you "Raise" the cab, the inverse is true for "Lower". As far as your cab not raising, that's because you air/hydraulic pump needs a rebuild-easy job for a dude such as yourself. The "Mode" switch locks the transfer case into 50% torque to front wheels and 50% to the rear.... That's all it does. When the trans is not in "Mode", the transfer case is split 30% torque to front wheels and 70% to the rear.... The truck is basically all wheel drive and the xfer case has a "limited slip" clutch in it... You have no lockers, but you can buy a detroit lunchbox locker for it. You can also get "highway gears", aka 3.07:1 gears, which will net you 60MPH at 2150 RPM and a top speed of 70MPH.... quite a bit better than the stock 55MPH @ 2600rpm... Good luck, JH!
The 24v standard for military vehicles dates back to after WWII when they standardized everything (switches, bulbs, etc) to streamline the supply system. The 24v system also enabled tactical radios to be powered by any vehicle.
@@JHDieseland4X4 the suspension setting in the hydraulic controls only compresses the suspension for line haul or air transport. Won't lift it up as your transport guy claimed. The hoses going between the axle and frame are common causes for flat tires.
JH listen up my brother. I am diesel mechanic for the Army for the last 9 years. Since you have 2 of those vehicles do yourself a favor and buy some NATO cables. It allows you to jump start them without connecting to the battery. To the right of the battery box is where the connection is located. Those trucks are 24V systems, do not let them sit or the batteries will drain. Those hawker military batteries are crap, I've replaced hundreds. Once they die it's unlikely you'll be able to bring them back. Good luck!!
All the lighting is 12v then the starting system is 24v. There is a LBCD (Load And Battery Control Device) underneath the spare tire carrier that distributes the 12v/24v power. Also the switch that Gentry showed you for the battery disconnect is the secondary battery disconnect. The main battery disconnect is underneath the small box to the right of the battery box.
There's a data plate on the truck somewhere that will show you the exact model of the truck you can then use that to find a TM ( Technical Manual) that bad boy will show you everything you need to know about either truck. Repair procedures, nsn's for parts anything you need is in them and you can download them to your phone or computer.
Hey JH if you have any questions about these mtvs let me know. I’m a miltech mechanic and work on these things about everyday and know my way around them alright. There real simple you can just about use any 12 batteries you want. I’d bet 4 red top optimas hooked up would be plenty enough. As long are there above at least 750cca
@@kylejprill they originally came with the hawker grey ones that are like 1000+cca but we now put the 6tmf brown bottom and back top, lead acid ones there lower cca and are junk.

Hey JH, we have Oshkosh plow trucks at my airport, the ones with the rear engines, have a hood thats raises. what I do is use the hand pump to "prime" the air actuated hydraulic pump, then I use the air button to raise the hood.
I would love more shop content. Like you going over what trucks are in the shop and why. You also showing how to fix the problems trucks are having that come into the shop!
So JH got the deuce and a half then the CUCV and now these 2 beasts. Dude is putting together an awesome toy collection. JH a few years into the future: Dude i an M60 tank and its a unit!
you should get ahold of the diesel brothers before they come into town for the race....they know their stuff about those 6X6's and they would walk you through those trucks and be able to help you out by buying one if you ever sold it lol

Im building a R/C version of this truck right now over on my channel. These things are so rad. The detail in the rc kit is wild as well. Lots of little parts to be glued together.
Congratulations on the new 'boys toys' I am extremely jealous, one would make a great overland camper, I will subscribe to see what you do with these two beasts, best regards from Australia.
I love our government. We leave thousands of these for ISIS for FREE to use against our own troops, but a US citizen? Nah bro. You need a background check to own a truck. Biig oofs.
@Lew Rodd How much of it was intact? How much was combat lossed as we left? How much will be running in a year in ten years? I give it five years before most of the equipment is just more junk on the side of the road. Its not that they lack mechanics or at least enough mechanics. But that they lack any of the infrastructure needed to maintain a modern country or the economy to support one. The Taliban may have been winning prior to intervention but that was becasue the Saudis where spending more on the Taliban then Iran or Russia could spend on their Enemies. War is waste. It is taking mountains of money and thousands of lives a burning them up fore some sort of gain you can call Victory. You hope.
That trucker Tim is such a cool dude, he really goes out if his way for all you guys and i love when hes got his little man with him its like hes got a little clone lol.

good job man, you did not use their shipping there hard to pick up a lot of times, great purchase if you got lucky 2012 was a good year to get auction rig
I like how everyone is forgetting that he also does truck Tug-Of-War’s which he’s got two “ Tractors” to dominate with now. I am absolutely looking forward to everything JH comes up with to do with these monstrous machines.
Iv been thinking of getting one of them for a wile hope you give us a run down top speed pulling power and all love the Channel thanks for all you're doing from one hall of famer 2 another good job brother
the LMTF/FMTV platform is quite spicy when they are working correctly. the biggest issues with these vehicles are that they slowly die when they sit unused. you can park them in perfect working order and come back 2 months later to have 20 issues after a road test. if you relocate some of the stuff under it to above the frame you'd more than likely be able to put the old deuce to shame keep in mind the 2.5 ton and the 5 ton are different animals in their own right.
So the horn on the turn signal stalk is your air horn, should be mounted above the tire on the passenger side, there should also be a mast power switch by the battery box, most of the non armored LMTVs don’t have AC, and if the do make sure to have the air circulation switch set to pull air from outside, can’t say if it has the hazmat filters still installed.
Those are cooler than the square body. I like square body chevys but you have enough projects I don't think you need that. Can't wait to see what you do with these.
SGT Johnson A & SGT I SON (I think the latter was scraped off) would be a good photo op if you can track them down. Knowing the history of the truck is just as important as running them. Looks like you have enough 91B (Mechanics) and 88M (Drivers) on this channel to give you all the help you need. I'm betting someone near by has the experience to give you all the help you will ever need. There are entire organizations and groups that gather for military truck sorties.
NO NEED TO BUY NEW BATTERIES JH! All you need to do is to pull the maintenance covers off the batteries fill up the chambers with distilled water and then leave the covers off and put the battery on a charger and you will start to see bubbles come up, do this until you do not see any more bubbles coming up. Then let the battery is rest for several hours and then repeat the process again. Once you get to the point where you're trying to charge it and there are no bubbles that will come up, you will have completely brand new batteries again. There are videos on RUclips that show how to do this. This is all they do to batteries when you turn in the cores, they refresh them with this method and then resell the batteries as new again. Trust me it works and I have done it. Daniel
There is a fella down the street from me in Gonzales Louisiana selling a tractor trailer version that you mentioned in the beginning if you're still looking. He just slapped a for sale sign on it a couple weeks ago. He's had it for several years and it looks nice.

government got it's money one way or another.. ;)
He has more than two. At least four by my count. 🙂

Can't wait to see what kind of content and shenanigans this 2 units will bring to the channel. Thanks for the video JH.
I was just looking at some other military trucks just last week. Can’t wait for more videos to come
Really looking forward to the coming videos JH sweet rides
Can't wait to see you test them rigs out.
Great. Looking forward to see content on and with these
You need to drive it across Drew's pond to prove to Cleetus that it can be done!
Those things are so awesome! Psyched to see them in action!
It is worth the wait... you will enjoy these rigs. I've had mine for going on 3.5 years. If you need any help/advise, let me know. Cool stuff!
Thats so cool. Looking forward to seeing them tested.
Great vid. First making it over to the JH channel. I love military trucks. So I’ll def be following these two.
Hell yea!!!!!! Can’t wait to see what your going to do with them!!
Can't wait to see these trucks in action. IV always liked military vehicles
you should get ahold of the diesel brothers before they come into town for the race....they know their stuff about those 6X6's and they would walk you through those trucks and be able to help you out by buying one if you ever sold it lol

As far as I remember, the models that were fitted with armor got AC, but the standard stateside models didn't.
trucks got 24v for accessories and those exide/hawker batteries are good for I believe 300 recharges as long as the cca don't go to low
