    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Thank you goldneagle! That is a big compliment coming from a master fabricator like yourself! I did notice, that for the use in military trucks, the Bostrom air ride seat bases work great because they have an additional front to back movement, that cuts down on a lot of the back rest jolts...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Air Ride Seats for the FEMTT! So after a recent 220 mile round trip to Santa Fe and back in the FEMTT, I decided to go ahead and do the air ride seat conversion, that I had planed on for some time. The biggest hurdle I faced, was that the Bostrom 915T seat bases did not in any way fit in to...

    "How to get a HET in life..." - M1070 Acquisition thread

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    So just to be clear: It was really just the HYDRAULIC SYSTEM of the FEMTT, that I THOUGHT was done, NOT THE WHOLE FEMTT PROJECT!!!! But unfortunately you are right anyway.....I ALREADY FOUND ANOTHER HOSE THAT IS NEEDED AND I FORGOT TO RUN.... Well, I guess that is what I get for making silly...
