M932 Trailer suggestions

[kd7qaw]

I am new to my M932 and tractors in general. Does anyone know if the M872 series are compatible with this rig?

Thank you

Yes they are. M931's and M932's are the tractor version.

I had a whole motorpool full of that combo.

Thank you sir for your assistance. Is there any tips or tricks you have for me for this combo?

I think pretty much anything an M52 or M818 will pull, a M931/M932 will also.

M117, M118, M119, M146, M373
M127, M128, M129, M971
M313, M447, M749, M750
M269, M270, M172, M871, M872
M967, M969, M970, M972, M131

There are probably more that I'm not thinking of. And lots of civilian semitrailers if they have enough distance between the kingpin and points that may contact the rear tires. Also if they have landing gear travel.

If your tractor has the 14.00x20 tires, this will increase the angle at which the trailer sits, which is already pronounced on the trucks with 11.00x20 tires as it is.

No major tricks, just make sure the IV cable is plugged in on both sides. It's a good combo made for each other...

I don't know anything about the M932's either and have probably a dumb question, do these trucks have an elelctrical hook up for civi trailers ?

 

[flibob]

Civy trailers take 12v right ?

 

[engineer233]

They are 12v. For some reason I was thinking I saw a pic of a m915 with two styles of trailer hook ups. One mil connection and one civi. I just thought these tractors may have that too. I've never been around the military truck tractors, I've only delt with deuces and my M923.

The M915/M916/M920 do have both a civy 12 volt and military 24 volt light connectors. I don't know about the M931/M932.
