I have a Humvee shelter carrier 5th-wheel trailer, and I am trying to figure out if a 4-litter ambulance body will fit on it.
I haven't found one locally to measure, and I have searched both SS and the net without finding the information, so...
Anyone have one they would be willing to take...
I was glad to help out Mark. I enjoy these kind of trips, so long as not too much goes wrong. :-D
And now that you've changed the tires, it is a perfect excuse for me to bum another chance to drive your truck, to help you evaluate handling differences. :driver:
Cheers
Welcome aboard.
I was stationed in Norway with the US Marines in 1980, really enjoyed being there. Well, most of the time, anyway. I was Infantry, and it didn't seem like you had much flat land when we were walking somewhere with full gear. ;)

One thing to make sure you check for your state is whether or not the code says it is a violation to be equipped with specific items. This means that some items are illegal to have on your vehicle even if they are not being used.
For example, in Texas you can have a vehicle equipped with...
That left trailer tire was actually pretty soft. We aired it up before we moved off the lot.
Interesting note - there are no taps on the LMTV air gladhands. We were having a devil of a time trying to get air to go through the hose, it turns out you have to push down the air supply to trailer...
I have now done so! We just welcomed him home from his deployment late Friday evening. My older boy and I went up to the base in NC, Patrick didn't know anyone was coming to greet him, so it was a pleasant surprise for him.
Having never been up close to a V-22 before, it was nice to get a...
Dave, you are a nice guy and treated me right from the first time I met you, glad I could help you out on this. And I've had people do a lot of good things for me over the years, so...
We showed up about four hours earlier than I had thought we would. No problem, I figured we'd give Dave time...
My son and I picked the box up yesterday from Fuzzy. Wreckers sure make things easy!
We ended up driving straight through, so we are now safely outside MW's place having a snooze and waiting for him to check his messages. :smile:
Cheers
To be fair to Tucker79, a lot of folks on this site use the term "A0" for a little clarity when referring to the first issue of a truck, as in calling an M931 an M931A0 to differentiate it from an A1/A2.
While technically inaccurate, it is in a lot of threads one might come across. This can...
I personally don't consider takeoff/landing photos as "low flying", and the rest are at altitude, but I'm putting some pictures on here anyway.
Why? Because my younger Marine son is crew on the lead Osprey in the photos. :)
Photos are from Spain, over the Med, and (unknown) on their...
Pour vous...
1- B-29 Doc being prepped for moving by Tony M ("towing" her) and his crew at China Lake in 1987. Same range that FiFi was saved from.
2- Tony M with Doc in 2016
3- Doc running her engines up.
