Would love to see the truck again and see what you are up to with it.

I am also looking forward to more videos, Matt. I am specifically looking for an M1084 for the crane on the back to use as a business and to crane on and off a habitat when I want to use it on the Maine logging roads to camp. Did you ever use your crane, or did you just remove it and get rid of it? Thanks.

Great info. Thanks for sharing and taking the time on the video.

thanks for the transparency, is dirt legal still working for you? I know driving through CA can be a pain, and im sure WA is becoming the same way

wouldn't it be a little better if you fill those empty spaces with rock wool insulation as well? its water proof and fire resistant too.

Nice! Can't wait to see her finished!

looks like its gonna be nice and beefy!!! good stuff

I am looking to buy a 4x4 LMTV soon and your channel is a great help and inspiration. Thanks for posting your videos.

oh.. Love the logo :)

Hello Brother. We are older but seem to have the same "goal". Build fun stuff and share. We also live in PNW! Looking forward to reviewing your build. I started my LMTV build before I even knew to film it, but soon the story will be posted and ....... all the other good stuff. Blessings and Build-On! :)

Question - insurance, who will insure this as a truck? As a RV?.

The more videos you put out the more of a chance KZbin will notice it and put it up on there “we think you’ll like this” list

There’s a zerk behind the front tire for the universal joint there. You have to turn the tires left or right and roll the truck forward or back to get to them.

Let me know what I could have done better!?

Thanks Matt! Onward...............!!!

Has it already almost been a year since getting the truck?! Congratulations on all the progress you’ve achieved thus far 🎉

looking forward to more progress!

Awesome 😎 looking forward to see your video's!

We're looking forward to seeing more videos Matt.

Let me know what you guys think of the short?

I purchased the crane do you have any of the parts left ???

Love the build , you need to work on your video intro.. like a shot from inside the truck driving down the highway or a fly shot of the truck with the diesel engine revving up..

How’s gas mpg? 8-10?

i purchased the crane from your fmtv do you have any other parts ?

I just love the sound of those Caterpillar diesels. Looking forward to more of your build videos.😊

Awesome progress 🦾

Your resevoir is a heat exchanger, as has been pointed out. What about disconnecting and reconnecting the bowl heater in the fuel filter assembly you removed? There is another, more important fuel filter just to the right of the one you changed. It should be a CAT 1R-0751 rated at 2 microns and is far more likely to plug up and cause the engine to stop running. The one you replaced is a 30 micron filter and almost useless. A R45T is 10 micron and should have been installed instead. Just removing the mounting bolts for the filter head would have provided enough room to remove the filter assembly (no need to disconnect any fuel lines). I own a 2000 LMTV, have 50 years of automobile repair experience, and I am a professional mechanical engineer.

That looks fantastic

Great job

Keep up the good work Matt!! Good start and good to see your dad working with you. Max

I've thought about doing exactly what you've done (same model truck and habitat framing) and wondered how (or if) you are planning on addressing frame and habitat flex? I was thinking I would free the upper frame rail and add spring capture mounts between the rails with a hard mount in the rear.

Thanks for the info in the video. I have interest in the 2.5 ton LMTV and videos on costs are very difficult to find. I would like to see more content on maintenance and the costs involved to help make an informed decision on this being a platform for me.

noice

Awesome! It is always nice when the technical stuff is out of the way to start making it nicer :D

Looks tight

Thanks Matt! On your video the truck seems quieter. Good work!

You definitely need to throw up that upholstery on the ceiling

that cyber truck is loud

Nice work :D

Wow! What a great build. So quiet in the cab. Looks like it rides smooth and stops well.

Needs train style horn with bull bars with bull hirns attached to ram cars 😋 cool rv thou 👍

There is a reason all manufacturers use quicknuts, clipnuts, cagenuts, speednuts, and NOT RIVNUTS.

The best thing about riv-nuts is that they will ALWAYS fail and spin when you are removing them! you will destroy the entire panel, and door when they do in order to get the screw out of them when they do fail.

As a former 63B light wheeled mech. i love working on vehicles. If i was close i would help. Do you have all the 3 TMs?

Very nice, love the color!

Dam you be driving an lmtv-ini with that interior

Nah bro leave it the way it was

I’m exited to see what it is going to look like 👍

The truck is starting to look very luxurious!

Loved the result! Very nice!
