2018年3月16日 · Hello all. I am about one year into building my own go anywhere RV. It started out life as a M1078 troop carrier, purchased from auction as a non runner parts truck. Spent the first six months sourcing parts and sorting wiring issues. The plan was initially to …

2022年12月6日 · So that I understand. Let's say I have a 1078, it is currently titled as a M1078 truck. I have the title signed over to me as is. I build a box on it with the necessary components, (refrig, sink, bed, etc..) I have it inspected? by who? State Patrol, local LE, DMV, to sign off that it is now an "RV". Then go to DMV and change title from truck ...

2022年2月2日 · The listed capacities are WAY under what they will do - especially on road. For example - an (unarmored) M1078 has an off-road payload capacity of 5,000 lbs and weighs about 17,500 lbs right? So why then does my M1079 *also* have a payload capacity of 5,000 lbs when it already weighs in at over 21,000 lbs with it's empty AAR enclosure?

2020年2月24日 · So I have a 97 Jeep Wrangler I built with a 5.7 Hemi and a M416 Trailer with a telescoping rack for my tent. I did all the fabrication , painting myself, learned a lot. It has been good to us but now I think I have the bug for the M1078 LMTV. Been looking at all the conversion camper videos...

2016年3月22日 · 2. I went to a mobile DMV location and they gave me the forms to fill out. I had two options, first was special construction, second was just convert to RV. CHP chooses the route to take and they chose convert to RV since I didn't build the truck but rather just the camper. 3.

2023年3月4日 · Another rugged and even more inexpensive habitat solution is an ambulance box. Seen several that have been build this way. But again, that requires a complete buildout. This was my original intent to build when I got my first M1078. As far as prefab, you can always toss a 14-16 foot camper onto the back of an M1078 (or larger on a 6x6 platform).

2015年12月22日 · But I don,t think anyone there knows what a M1078 is. The Expedition portal has a few members with Fuso based RV's. There is also at least one of them that I know which is in the process of building himself an expedition RV based on the 6x6 MTV. The man got his 6x6 straight from Oshkosh and plans on building a custom cab.

2015年6月13日 · From there we looked at a multiple number of options (i.e.: farm exempt, RV, classic designation, etc.) Finally she called the central office in Olympia. After an interminable 20 minutes of a back and forth discussion with a supervisor she started tapping on her keyboard with a smile on her face.

2018年8月18日 · Hello forum. Finally I got my M1078 from the dealer and starting the RV conversion. But for first I have a problem with the cab latch. The hydraulic latch is working well (tried it with cab fully raised, it engages and locks the hook), but when I lower the cab the pin would not go in and block...

2020年4月15日 · Trying to get insurance for the M1078 truck in the state of Maryland. The truck will eventually be an RV. Geico does not insure the truck. Anyone in Maryland knows how to go about this? TIA.
