Worked on a M113

[13 MIKE]

I have a buddy on the SWAT team, he has the County's 113 at my house for some maintenance.

Thats awesome! I need to talk my Sheriff's Department in to getting an M113! Maybe they will let me work on it if I'm being a "good boy"......lol

What kind of tracks is it running....are they "all Rubber"? I have never seen any like that..... If they are all rubber.....I certainly need a set for my XM474E3!!

Hey Soni. Look up M113 Gavin. This is an upgrade named after Gen Gavin. The drive sprocket is also changed.

That's an older one. I work on the newer M113A3s now. Still one of my favorite vehicles to work on.

Thanks Justin,

TGSO or SAPD?

TGSO or SAPD?

It's kept at the City/Sclool District shop - I think they also maintain the Tom Green County Vehicles there - but as best I recall, it's marked SAPD SWAT (San Angelo Police Department)..... I'll have to take a drive over there and click some pics.
