    An easy way to pickup a M832 Shelter dolly

    The M720 will wander all over the road above 25mph (at least towing 2 in tandem). The M832 and M1022 tow great. These have lots of potential for project. Have a M832 with boxbeam from rails to support a MEP009B 200kw I put together in our Fire Dept. On scene drop the whole thing on the ground...

    M149A2 water tank trailer/ for fuel

    Fuel in a M149 would be less an issue with surge/sloosh than water as the specific gravity of the fuel is less than water (less mass floating around). M105 is not the right answer for a 600gal pod. That is a 5000lb load and more top heavy that an M149. Worry about CG of a 400gal M149 (same...
