On my 818's ive always used 2 blocks of wood, laid the tow bar along the bar in front of the spare tire/trailer air lines/tool box on the 2 blocks, strapped it down and used a chain and lock to prevent theft. Ill snap a picture when I can , Jay

Its been on here before somwhere. Maybe if the tow goes ok , I can show you guys what Not to do to a R2 Crash Truck... not make a camper from it.

I got a used one for my 818 and it had new hoses ,etc on it. Works perfect. Glad I can help. Jay

John Winslow Surplus. I got one last week from them. I know they will ship overseas also. Jay PS The you have White Owl also. I shop around.

Have you tried Rapco? Other than the cant ship paint worth a crap the paint is real good. My M37 was painted using Rapco's paint for the correct 52' US Army paint.

I bought a Duece off a guy that sells them on ebay(even right now), when it got here it wasnt anything like what he told me. It was real real bad, I had to sue the guy after I tried doing everything I could to make it right even though none of it was my fault. Unless I know the person id never...

Bingo , I was thinking the M123 or M125. Thats not a newer tow bar to tow anything the US Military uses right now. Its at least 40 years old.

This was brought up a while back about somthing, geese my memory is shot, Thanks US Army. Edit , OshkoshBegosh right Area52?

Not all mediums have adjustable legs , ive had one that wasnt. It looks like you have a specialized tow bar for a certain truck or certain type. Chime in guys who know better.

Sad part is I say that all the time OPSEC but most people who were not in the Military and some that were dont seem to care about that too much. No offence to anyone but lets use that a little more on SS. a 40 year old trucks not to big a deal but radios and stuff are. -Jay

Annnnnnnd buzz kill. lol

I agree , your in for alot of fun later down the road if you let a g/f tell you what to do now. Its your truck , you didnt buy it for her so if she dont want ot ride in it no loss , right? My wife doesnt like my bigger MV's/Trucks but loves the smaller ones like the M37. Honestly with the new...

Im sure this is everything you need. -Jay

I agree , I dont park anything at all in a gear.

Your trail trucks cooler than half my MV's Brandon ha ha.

Im with Eric, I sold a very very nice one wo/w but a 813A1 10 months ago for 9,000. Big surplus guys are buying them up for the contract so if you want sell now, while the prices are high on GL. The current market wont support a truck that needs restoration for 8K like GL but you have your ball...

The ones in SC were real nice and went for 4,xxx 2 weeks ago. Most looked like cherry trucks and that started and drove with like new tires. 300 bucks in paint with a nice running truck.

John Winslow doesnt have any? He has TONS of 5th wheel assemblies.

Well I have a 53' R2 now thanks to Craig/bugugh20 and him passing the chance to buy it to me... and I hope Craig has a M37 outta the deal.

The one you put up is near me Mike. There really is more out there than people think as you can see by just this thread. Im almost sure noone on SS is going to snag up the Winslow R2 from you , its been there for years and you might understand why(price via condition). I looked it over again...
