Since this is your first EUC, I'll take the "over" on 60 days. :deadhorse:

No, not extended. Your trailer should be the same as M747. Read here: http://www.steelsoldiers.com/5-ton-up/62432-what-does-x-stand-xm816.html

Good thing you have some good equipment!

The fifth wheel height is going to be a minor issue compared to the kingpin size and overall width of the trailer. Are you going to acquire and replace your commercial 2" fifth wheel with a 3.5" one? If you are planning to pull it home, I would suggest you consider removing the outer 8...

There is a good chance the trailer could have the BII with it. I know mine came that way.

Yeah, you are going to need a M911 or maybe M920 to pull that trailer.

You will also want the -14 manual. I got mine online from LOGSA. Send me a PM with your email and I can try to email them to you. One is 8MB and one is 2MB.

Good job.

You might be able to get $300 if you find an anxious buyer.

I'll use the same procedure next time I need to stack M871s.

I used the M816 wrecker to stack a couple of M872 trailers yesterday. Everything went pretty well. Pics below.

Actually, the PLS is the M1074 and M1075, with or without the M1076. The M1120 HEMTT has the LHS (Load Handling System). Very similar in design, but only 11 ton payload, compared with 16.5 ton on the PLS.

No, you are not backing any wagon style trailer anywhere easily. There is a pin provision for backing straight, but that is it. Here is another good video... Oshkosh PLS Heavy High Mobility Truck | Military-Today.com

Here is a good link to some video showing the M1076 trailer in action. Aviation, Defense and Space News, Jobs, Conferences by AVIATION WEEK

The M1076 is designed to hold any load the LHS or PLS is capable of handling (with the exception of raw containers, they must be on a flatrack). Gross payload is 16.5 ton. That includes flatracks, engineering modules, bridges, boats, repair modules, water modules, etc.

Nothing like having the right equipment for the job! Well done Ross!

Wow, the new ramps on the back make it too easy! :grd:

Those are PLS rims from M1074 or M1075 trucks. Not compatible with 5 tons.

You need TM 9-2320-363-10 for Operators and -20, - 24P and -34 for repairs. I can probably email you the -10 if you send me your address. The others are too large for email.
