Jason, Eddie T was my inspiration and the source for the TOW mounting hardware. A really great guy to deal with and I keep in touch with him by phone regularly. His military experience and enthusiasm with the M901 TOW equipment was also very inspiring.

Are you sure you want to give up the electric starter? The electric starter makes the start up much easier.

thanks Mike, I understand my TOW mule is one of 3. I know the guy that has one in Georgia and there may be one on the west coast that showed up at the Tower Hill show. Can anyone get me in touch with the owner of the west coast TOW mule?

Scott, I found that stripping down all the axles at once, keeping all of the parts from each axle together, cleaning all the parts and replacing all of the needle bearings and pressing in new seals all at once works best for me. With all of the parts prepped, the assembly process goes a little...

Mike, that is the missile tube in its mounted position in the T&E. The launch tube is missing but soon to be found. The TOW set up in your pictures has the launch tube and the one on the mule has the launch tube with the missile tube installed. Where did the picture of the TOW mule come from?

It has been a while, I have some progress to report. The mule has been running now for over a year with the wide tires, fenders, and all of the deck mounted brackets to specially designed for the mule to carry and operate the TOW missile system with spare rounds and a ground mount. The 151 tow...

If you want to put it in a short bed with the tailgate down backed in with 2x10's under the wheels will distribute the weight so you do not need to haul a trailer. I use ratchet straps in the pick up bed stake pockets to hold it in place front and back on bothe sides.

Randy, Thanks, i need the dimensions of the missile control box so I can find one to match. At this tima, transporting 3 mules at once is only possible with the M35A2. I am not sure it will be at the show in April. The wide tires on the TOW mule will not fit in the pick up truck easily...
