If you go to my motor pool gallery (click gallery in the main menu to your left, there will be a direct link to the album), there are photos of the M931A2 dove tail there. It's basically the same size as the M923A2 cargo that is right next to it. There is a few resin conversions available for the Italeri 5 ton and HEMTT kits. I do not know about the availablity of a PLS conversion set, but I do have a PLS sitting next to a HEMTT, although they are a similar vehicle, its not as easy as just adding a pair of wheels to the HEMTT to get a PLS. Good luck.

Darkstar - are you seeking critical measurements - like wheelbase(s)?
