    So, what's the one thing you'd change?

    So I join the M915 to M920 forum "movement"..... My vote would be to give the M915 Series of trucks their own area and remove them from the overloaded 5TON area. Soni

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Wow....those are really cool containers! You can certainly use the connectors you got to hook them together. They will leave about a 2-3 in gap between them, when installed, so you might have to come up with some kind of seal for the gap. Speaking of "...more than parades...." Here are a couple...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Thanks for the offer Sir! These are the twist locks that are used to lock ISO containers together, (like on ships or railroad cars) so they will not work for my application. The ones I have on order are the weld-on type, used to secure the container to a truck chassis. Thanks Soni

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    A FEMTT update! Thanks Guys for the nice compliments! I have been really busy this spring and have not had time to update this thread. I have made some progress on the FEMTT project though and finally found a moment for a quick update. At the Military Vehicle Show in Phoenix Arizona last...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Greetings from 'FEMTT JAIL'..... Since the days have been getting warmer again and the mud is finally starting to dry, I decided to tie up some of the loose ends in the wiring of the FEMTT. This of course involves crawling in to "FEMTT jail"....:shock: (The area in front of the radiator...

    Heim Joint Steering Has it been done for our Mules

    I have tried the Heim joints when we first built the Scorpions and they did not last very long! They did not brake or anything, but they started to rattle almost instantly, even when greased all the time. On my Steyr Puch Haflinger, I converted the hard to get and expensive, factory tie rod ends...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    I want it to be one of the "Autobots" of course, but since it is not really an Oshkosh.....I guess "Decepticon" would probably be more appropriate.....:roll: Soni

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    I had another one in stock, so I just replaced it with the same one.....If I keep having trouble with it I will find something different. I will keep you guys posted.... Soni

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Yeah....I could never quite understand the concept of procuring things, that are already more complicated then their commercial counterparts, by honoring the LOW bid!! Also, I think that the need for waterproofing seems to add another level of failure to a lot of the military electrical...

    Allison M916 + Mk48 Cab = 6x6 "FEMTT"

    Oh No....My First FEMTT Repair..... Well, I had a small alternator fire in the FEMTT a few weeks ago and it fried the 24V side of the Leece Neville regulator. I finally found time today to switch it out. After removing the faulty alternator I was able to see, that the damage was much more...
