    I just saw one of these on a semi trailer and had to u-turn and stalk it to get some pics! Everything is MASSIVE! The diameter of the coil spring steel is about 1.5" (38mm)! Hydraulic lines are everywhere for the 4 wheel steering and winch and who knows what! The yokes at the drivelines contain u-joints about 7" (178 mm) around! Really cool to look that thing over while it was on a trailer... my phone is a POS so I'm not sure I will be able to post pics of the Osh Kosh with my VX since that is all I had but I'll work on it...

    Yeah, good point Dub. These things could save lives just long enough to leave them for dead. I didn't like seeing the thin CV boots either...
