What goes here?

[muddog]

Can anybody tell me what correct equipment would go in the opening on the front of my M373A2 trailer at the top. I would like to keep it as original as possible.
Thanks Harold.

I do not know the numbers but from what I hear there a PITA to find and ones that can be made to work.... I think wreckerman has a set on one of his trailers or 109 trucks.... maybe.. lets hope he pops in .

Muddog, sorry I didn't see your post earlier. Here are pictures of the heating/AC units mounted to the front of a 1981 10 ton XM971 trailer. They are 203 volt 3 phase units with individual contol panels for each inside the trailer. Don't know if these work yet. Probably do. I would definitely agree your racks are for heating/AC units of some sort. Your racks look much smaller than the XM971 racks and almost look like they mount household type window AC units. Sorry I can't be more help.

To head off a question the OD cover on the lower front of the trailer is on there to keep the sun off the two 5th wheel airbags. This trailer has airbag suspension on the two axles and the 5th wheel. The 5th wheel airbags look like new. Just trying to keep that way.

Thanks for the input everybody. Hope to find some time this summer to bring it to the house and start doing a little work on it. Hope to do a camping trip in it this summer.

Harold,
Those are probably going to be 18000 to 36000 BTU horizontal AC units, which do come up on GL. Some were made by KECO, and there are/were other manufacturers. Within the past month I found a long list of TM's for military AC units from 9000 BTU's up to 56,000+. Can't locate it now - figures! Try TPUB for starters. There were a couple of units that might have fit in a GL auction that ended Tuesday - with no bidders at 4:56. Maybe they will be re-listed.

Horizontal 36000btu A/C

I do have one (York MA 3-F23A) available. Pulled out of my M447C.
TM 5-4120-259-15 covers it . . .
