M2 front platform plates
« on: May 17, 2014, 01:57:56 AM »
Hello all-
Does any one have the dimensions for the three plates that make up the front platform on a M2?
The two side plates sit partially under the ammo boxes, and the center is diamond plate.
Thanks-Michael

I will try and get measurements today. The two outer plates are part of the main floor. The driver's side plate has a hole in it for power wires for the radio to pass through to a junction box in the storage locker. Here are some photos that I had on file in the G503 albums. I will get more photos.

Thanks Steve! I was wondering what that square hole was for.

I have CAD files for all the rear side armor. I'm working with someone to convert them into drawings also. I will try to have something posted by spring.
