I have the marine core m928. I have a ISO bed that has container locks on it as well. Like simp said it has 10ft drop sides on each side.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Idea is a quick attach, civi camper trailer up on the truck in place of the bed, if I can keep it under 13'-6". I think I can overhang the rear up to about 10' over the rear of the truck frame rails. I haven't researched camper heights yet, but I have been eyeballing some of the old Hi-Lo campers that I'm sure would work....Think you'd get something like a M146 trailer, or just a civilian R/V box?...
...You daily driving your M925A2?...
No, trying to keep my truck modular. I can pull two pins, unplug the lights and have my bed off in five minutes. Working on a fifth wheel module over the winter. Camper will be down road a bit...Jbulach, would you be making the conversion somewhat permanent and ditching the bed entirely?
The M934 box weighs almost double that... so...Do you know how much a 20 foot shipping container weights? If my memory is correct they are close to 5,000 lbs empty
M109 or S280 on a M927 would leave lots of bed space left.....That's what I thought. I'd build my own box, maybe just stick built 2X4 and plywood?
Just for reference, if weight is a big concern to you, you may want to simply calculate the weight of just your plywood and maybe the weight of whatever you are going to sheet the interior with. Making the structure strong enough to be removed from the bed will also be a bit of a challenge. Not trying to discourage you, just making sure you do your homeworkThat's what I thought. I'd build my own box, maybe just stick built 2X4 and plywood?
