M170 footman loops

Post by Claudio »

Hello dear folks,
A curious question that I never found a reasonable answer: why some of the M170 ambulance footman loops next to the spare wheel well are taller than others? Or actually, all others have the same shape?

All best!

The taller footman loops are used when a larger strap or rope is used in them.
