Great news! That is the way it should be (or shorter). I think we tolerated the long delays for so long that we lowered our expectation level. Now, an EUC clears somewhat timely and we are ecstatic!

There are different bead (flange?) heights. G has covered this before in detail with a diagram. I always enjoy reading his posts, because he knows more about military tires/wheels than anyone I know. The M35A3 wheels are MPT, but could also be used with standard tires (15.5/80R20 for...

Here is a shot of an M813 with chrome pipes

If you get those brushguards picked up for Joe, maybe you can join us for the OKC Convoy on Saturday?

I just sent a PM to those who have shown interest in the convoy. It has details and additional information for the convoy. Please take a look at it and let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Yes, the blue hooded truck does have both the crane and winch option. The green and tan hooded trucks have the gun turret option and crane, but not winch. Your knowledge and information is greatly appreciated, thanks!

If it were me, I would coordinate with some local members to assist you in getting it home, if necessary.

Tires look great, nice touch with moving the fenders! Do you have plans for carrying a spare?

Can you look at these pics and tell me if these have the removable roof? The last 2 pics show a gun hatch but the first 2 do not. They all look to have the large hump in the hood and the material handling crane.

That is good news on all accounts!

Merlin- Thanks for your insight! Can you look at the truck and trailer pics in the first post on page 1 and tell me which ones these are?

Here are some PLS rim pics for comparison.

Looks like they could be PLS rims.

You got it Jason! I hope we can organize a convoy from here to there. I think you participated in the Arkansas MV Convoy earlier this year and would appreciate any tips/advice you can provide to make our event safer and more fun. Please send me a PM with your ideas.

I replaced the 24" wheels on my M919 with 20" HEMTT wheels and had minimal clearance issues on the front drum. I haven't measured a 10 ton, but it might be possible to run 20" wheels with a little machining.

PLS truck and trailer take different rims, but the bolt pattern is the same.

HEMTT and PLS wheels are different bolt patterns. HEMTT is the common 10x11.5" bolt circle with 8.75" center hole. PLS is the larger 10x13.25" bolt circle with 11" center hole.

Wow, it will be great to have a M813A1 on the convoy. If anyone needs a tow, you will be the man! I updated the itinerary on the original message. More information to follow soon.

:driver: Glad to hear it was a successful trip! You are quickly become a Westfolk of the Midwest!

That is an Oshkosh M1070, the Army's current HET.
