M109A3 and M813 questions???

[deuceman51]

I'm looking at finally getting my first multifuel deuce in the form of an M109a3 shop van. I was wondering if anybody had some technical specs for them. I need to know how tall the truck is to its highest point, length, weight. I'm sure it's close to the M35a2 on length and weight, but I wanted to make sure before I buy it. I'm not sure if it will fit in my buiding. I am also looking at getting an M813a1 and needed to know the length, weight, and dimensions of this truck too. Did all the M813s have the 250 cummins in them? Also are the parts compatable with the older 5tons like fenders, bumpers, engine acess panels, exhaust, and most of the other small body parts? Thanks in advance. Hopefully all goes well and I can bring these two home to my collection.

Just curious, where did you get those stats from for the M109a3 shop van and the M813a1?

You too can have all those stats and so much more. Just go to the technical manual section and download TM 43-0001-31. Its the TACOM Equipment Data Sheets. Covers lots and lots of trucks, trailers and just a myriad of stuff. Its a great quick reference for just about anything.
