Your landing leg... It is different than others I have seen. Where the "attachment" to the trailer is, all the others I have seen that attachment is higher up on the leg than where yours is on the bottom. I wonder if it is a design change or a leg for another kind of trailer.

You would be amazed at what the SPAAMFAA archives have on old fire trucks. For the few dollars it costs for the research, it's priceless when you get the list of info/pics/specs that they have found.

yes, but you wont have the dropside "disconnnect" like the poster above mentioned.

On the mast is the correct mounting location thats called for in the TB. I dont like it either..

If thats mounted on a mast, then that is the correct place...

The correct place as per the TM is behind the cab, on a mast. However, if put there, it hits every tree branch, overpass, and everything else. I installed mine on the fender like they do on the 900 series 5 tons. Much lower, and doesnt hit everything...

I like the M1000 trailers with the super single conversion kit.

Did you check Saturn Surplus?

the 88 will have dual circut brakes. And I'll bet it was a USAF dropside, made by AMG.

Holy big booster reel, Batman!

It needs to be inline.. A teewont work....... Check the HMMWV TM for more info on the 10.5K winch.

The problem is that those who really know (who have buddies or such at TACOM) that can post up the real deal answer to the question, others dont like that sort of info posted for whatever reason, so that info doesnt get posted.. So we are our own worst enemy in this case.....

I'd like to go as a vendor just on Friday, but the $ for a space seems a bit high.. Anyone know anyone from the club that can work on that?

Yes, more pics of the old truck, especially the Barton 500 GPM front mounted pump. I have one of those pumps on my apparatus, a 1954 Willys Howe Fire Jeep.

I just saw a brand new M1120A4 HEMTT fresh off the lowboy from depot.. It had the old style 3 lever in it.
