Looks to be steel framing with foam sandwiched between FRP inside/out. with an aluminum floor. I can grab pics later. The second one in the list that says 'SOLD!' is the one I bought. They had another 5-6 there and what was about a month ago. I'd call them and ask if you're really interested...

I ended up buying a reefer with a non-functioning cooling unit. Gonna add a mini-split, solar, and add'l lighting. Already has 3+ inches of closed cell foam insulation on all 6 sides. There's a company up in WA that has 16' boxes for ~$1500.. I found mine on FB marketplace searching 'reefer'

I was gonna call him a n00b for necroposting but I think I'll chalk it up to Alzheimer's instead. :ROFLMAO:

Not sure where this fits - not exactly a TM but good info for those that want it. Outlines the FMTV program and compares it to M939 and M44 series trucks.

So, I pretty much lucked out then? CTIS has already been disabled on the host truck, so I can bolt/unbolt the wheels as a whole?

So, I needed a set of 395s and it was cheaper to buy a trailer with the tires (local) than it was to buy/ship and then pay someone to mount the tires (time issue). So, I picked this up. These look like standard FMTV wheels. So, they should be a direct bolt on to an M939A2, correct?

I already have gas masks, filters,, etc that will do much better than just a simple dust filter. The positive pressure system add-ons for them are like $50. Thanks to Israel handing them out to their citizens like candy in the event of a chemical attack, they're readily available. The particle...

Maryland doesn't actually care about the law, or anything other than whatever policy they can make up on the spot. They don't want those evil scary assault trucks on the road, despite them being exempt from FMVSS. 'We don't register tactical vehicles' :rolleyes: To add: They always pull up...

Not big enough and simultaneously ridiculously overbuilt without much room for modification.

Already accounted for. I plan on multiple vents. The venting system will have both fan driven (through an air exchanger) and through filtration - I was hoping to have multiple smaller vents that are less visible, and fed via 2" or so PCV with bends so light doesn't escape. The air filtering...

So... You know I like to overanalyze things. I need input. I originally got an M934 but realized the length was a limitation and the way the body expanded was virtually useless for planning purposes. I sold it. I figured I'd get a deuce (And I did) then realized that due to parts availability...

I bet there are a ton of people who would be interested in those.

If you're doing any serious offroading, you're either going to want to draw an imaginary 45* from your rear tire to about halfway up your occupant structure, or make the occupant structure end before the bumperettes. You can fit a lot in 15-16'

That overhang makes me nervous.

Ohh, man... Sorry for your loss.. Such horrible shape... I'll be by around 1900 with a trailer to take it off your hands for you to save you the trip to the junkyard. Don't wory about the fuel. I'll cover that too... :mrgreen:
