Latest heavy haulage trip for our Military vehicle Easter camp out. My 1972 , Ex NZ Army M818 with 250 Cummins with Jacob Brakes.The gross combination was about 36 tons. From my base to Waiouru , central North Island New Zealand was about 50 miles..... and took about 3 hours! Climbing all the way from sea level to around 1000 foot. She purred like a kitty and did not miss a beat. Thanks go to forum member Wes for supplying a new rebuilt PCB just in time for the trip, Cheers Andrew.
