Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
It is an Allison 3500SP push-button transmission. Looks new as it has no road dirt, grime or mud on it and just a little of the aluminium white surface corrosion (dust).
Slaved air off my 813 and got it up to about 65lbs. Brakes seem to function or at least I hear them when I hit the pedal. Aired the low tire up for a half an hour before my arms got tired from holding the chuck on. Got it up to 60 and it could probably go to 80.
Need batteries because they are deader than a Kipper on a cracker. I won't even try to jump it off any truck. That's how I smoke checked my last alternator.

Okay. I took pics of it, a lot.
I'll put a few up and if anyone wants to see more let me know.
The first is passenger side rear. Then passenger side front. Then drivers door frame.

The frame is rectangular on the bottom and tubular inside cab. Each corner of the top has bolts holding the top tubes into larger bottom tubes that are then welded to the frame below the cab floor. In the pic of the door frame there are tubes that arc around to the door frame from the roll cage and the door frame itself is NOT sheet metal cab, it is square tube steel and it looks to be an integral part of the protection system.
The last pic is the cat's derriere. Push button transmission.
