Does anyone know the NSN for the 12T capacity lunette towbar used to tow an MK17A1?

That is part of the US Marine Corps Logistics Vehicle System and is towed by the Mk-48 Front Power Unit. Marine TM for it are not online as far as I know. I don't think it uses a towbar, at least not what I think of as a towbar. Good luck, Wayne

there is a tow bar for moving the trailers w/o the mk48. several have sold on GL in the last month or so ( I want to say at Albany GA) heavy non adjustable suckers that bolt directly to the trailer.

Sorry there was no NSN listed for the tow bars listed on the GL auction. They were listed as scrap. I wanted to bid but had no use. One lot of 3 went for under $300 and the lot of two went for $500 and some change.

You are correct, the MK-48 doesn't use a towbar when coupled to the MK17A1. I am looking for the bolt on towbar that mounts directly to the frame of the MK17A1 for movement by another MV after it's uncoupled from the MK48 power unit. Thanks for the response.

Yes, that is the one I am looking for. Will have to keep my eyes open. I wouldn't have thought it to be sold as scrap. Thanks for your response

Yes, that is the towbar i'm looking for as displayed in your attached photos.Too bad they were sold as scrap, with no NSN. Thanks for your response.
