MEP-802a/803a skid bolt pattern

[Digger556]

I've searched through the TMs for the 802a/803a and the TMs for the Schutt LTT trailers, but can't seem to find a technical drawings that shows the dimensions of the bolt pattern on the skid that holds it down to the trailer. I've tried measuring it, but haven't been 100% successful, always have some errors.

Doesn't anyone know where to find this information?

Its in one of the books, that much I know.. but I am not sure if there is a listed tolerance.

Well that is interesting, the TM shows 40.9 for the 803 and 29.25 for the 802, however it is obvious they both have the same bolt pattern.

I put a tape on a couple of units and keep coming up with a numer between 29.13 and 29.25"

You are right, its a typo in the manual. Its wrong in my PDF copy on the 802 as well. Not sure if there is version which superseded what we have.

The bolts used I think are GR8 1/2", so there is play in both directions.
