Do you think Rancher's Supply had one? I can run down there and check John's yard and see if there's one there. Drop me a PM.

Did you the see this one on GL? Will it work for your application?dma251 said:by the way...
If anyone sees a hemtt battery box lid somewhere, I sure could use it. The one I fabricated up before won't clear the new bed, so I am going to try to find a stock one before I make another.
Here's what they look like -
Better include a big tub of vasoline and latex gloves too.maddawg308 said:Take two bottles of aspirin and a bottle of scotch, you might not notice you are dealing with GL.
I've got it set up. I'm taking it back in for sandblasting on Monday the 25th, and will spend Tuesday masking it all off and getting ready to paint on Wednesday and Thursday.Flea said:Truck's looking awesome! Hurry up and get that white front painted!![]()

The top 2 are MTVR based, not HEMTT. Note the TAC-4 suspension (used under the MTVR) clearly visible under the front end in the top pic.dma251 said:I haven't seen any civilian fire trucks trucks made by Oshkosh that didn't look like they started out life first as a military truck. There was the one on Ebay the other day that definitely seemed to be based on a LVS, but I haven't seen any from the factory civilian hemtt's. Can someone post some pics?
We have Oshkosh flightline crash trucks at work, and the old ones are from the mid-late 80's. They are nothing like a hemtt. We also have Oshkosh Striker crash trucks, and they are more similar in appearance, but still seem to have major design differences. (the engine is almost always in the rear of the truck).
They do sound like Detroit 8v92ta's though. Love that sound!
Sorry...yes, C&C means "Cab and Chassis". Mea culpa.cranetruck said:C&C...Chassis and Cab?
Oshkosh must have had commercial applications in mind from day one.....
That appear to be, actually, an original MK48, as opposed to the LVS, I believe. The MK48 did not have interchangeable bodies on it, where the LVS did (all IIRC).Elwenil said:dma251 said:There was the one on Ebay the other day that definitely seemed to be based on a LVS...
