M170 litter rack dimensions .

My M170 has very few fittings still in place . Over the winter I would like to try to fabricate the floor channels which form the lower litter rack . Can any of you kindly good folk take some dimensions I could work from please ? Or can you point me to an existing post on The Forum where they might already exist . Many Thanks , in advance .

Greetings Davie,

I am in the process of restoring my 1954 M170 front line ambulance. The M170 is 98% complete and I have a set of original bottom floor litter racks. Would be happy to provide you with photos and dimensions for the bottom racks.

Please feel free to email me at:

jsteber1944@mail.com

The only item that my M170 does not have is the top litter racks which I am in the process of reseraching and plan on fabricating.

All the best!

Still hoping to get dimensions to fabricate the floor mount litter rack as the previous offers were not fulfilled .

I lost a large part of last year to illness and the jeep broke down just as I was becoming immobile so I'm only just getting back to fixing it - fuel pump leaking into the block mostly - but I'd really like to get the rack made and fitted before our show season get going again on this side of the Atlantic .

Pictures and dimensions would be really helpful : length , width and depth of channel , gauge of metal . position of the mounts etc . TIA .

I've been away from my data due to health.

I hope to be back on my feet in a week or two.

A resale shop near me has two different litters for sale. Both would need canvas repair/ replacement. I can supply info if anyone is interested.

When you get Keith's blueprints for the ambulance parts make sure you share them here on the site.
