I need the cable that connects the semi trailer to the M818. It has a standard trailer NATO ends. I think it is called an interconnect cable but i don't know for sure. It is located where the two air supplies are behind the cab. Someone was kind enough to releive me of mine. Does anyone have one for sale. Not looking for a new one, unless it is reasonabley priced. Just one that works. I don't mind getting my hands dirty when i use it.

There was one on ebay a few weeks ago. I think it was going for about $25. They do have a male connection on one end and a female on the other. They are basically constructed like a trailer cable extension cord.

I am not sure if they both use male ends. Does any one have one that they can look at. I know on the truck side the truck has a female port so a male end would plug into it. what about the trailers? is that a male or female port?

The semi trailer that I have has a female port on it as well.



Hence my need for a cord with a male on each end.

I have the cord you need and can post a pic but I do not want to sell it. I would post so you can be sure of what I have said. The connections look like a male to male connection but they area really male pins to female pins connection. The connector at the truck is the same as the connector as other trailer connection on military vehicles. The connection at trailer is not the same. It is opposite the one on the truck. The one on the truck has female pins and the trailer has male pins. They are not like a regular non-military tractor trailer which uses the same female connection on both ends.
