M718 Spare Tire Carrier...

Unread post by wafinley » September 21st, 2020, 2:55 pm

I am in need of the side spare tire carrier for the M718 Ambulance...I have the extension itself. I saw a picture of a M151 in Vietnam where they took and added the extension to their m151 so they could carry extra fuel, water and ammunition...had a m60 mounted also :D

Thanks - Bill

If your extension needs a new floor panel let me know as we make them.

Hambone,
Did you get a chance to see if you had a side tire carrier?

Are you fellas talking about a tire carrier like the one that goes on the passenger opening, or other? I have a spare one of those that needs a new home.

Cheers,
TJ

Yes, I understand that. I'm trying to determine if it is exactly the same piece of kit as the one that goes on the passenger opening.

That's for the M151A1C TOW jeep I believe.

Hambone,
That sounds great! I sent you a private message with my contact information. I was just about to give up and try and have one engineered :shock:
