M915A1, Truck, Tractor,gladhand

[Rkrug]

Look at an m915a1 and wanted to make sure before i put a bid in on it that it had the glad hands on the front so that I could tow it with my newly acquired tow bar.

 

[73m819]

Yes it does, If I was you I would READ the -10 for the 915a1

 

[doghead]

I wonder if the TM tells you how to tow it properly.

Do a search!! That's been covered before!

 

[doghead]

That was a Rhetorical Statement.

Now that attachment lightened up my day. Thanks

Doghead,

I think your picture is of bath salts, not coke.

 

[Castle Bravo]

Which towbar do you have?

 

[Westech]

Not the large one I am betting. If you do use a medium bar make sure to have it collapsed all the way, it will handle the truck at that setting just fine.

 

[Ferroequinologist]

Just need inch to 1.5in feet, if such a beast exists

 

[Rkrug]

Which towbar do you have?

Dont know what size it is am going to pick it up tomorrow heres a pic of it.
Looking at some pictures of the truck where is the slave plug located at? i didn't see it by the grab bar or maybe i just need glasses

 

[doghead]

Again, in the TM...( no slave port)

You better take some help if your GL lot does not offer loading.

 

[swbradley1]

Wait, you mean there is useful information in the TMs?

Like the -10 or maybe even, wait for it, the tow bar manual...

Here are some of the TMs you may need -

The slave plug is underneath the passenger side door on the front of the battery box.

The slave plug is on the front of the battery box (oops......I snitched).

The tow bar looks adequate, what is the two vehicle?

Chevy Pick-up...LOL sorry couldn't resist.

Luckily I have lots of friends with semis and big trucks so it would probably be a peterbuilt or freigtliner semi.

All equipped with pintle hitches on the rear to hook the towbar to?????

If one of them has a fifth wheel wrecker (Holmes Kit) you can just pick it up from the rear. Remember to tie the steering wheel in place. That's how I recovered two of my M915's.

Yes they all have pintle hitches.
Maybe I could get my uncle to lift it on to a trailer with his Grove GMK275 275 ton crane?
Probably would not fit through the gate at GL
