Click to detail has made an M32 Treadway Bridge Adapter available for the Asuka M32B1 model. This particular option has been designed by HDS.
Here are the details as provided by Click to detail;
The Treadway Bridge Adapter was developed to allow the M32 ARV the ability to deploy short sections of the Treadway Bridge. The adapter consisted of two main sections; the adapter for the front of the hull which held one end of each bridge section in place, and the counterweight holding frame in the back of the M32 which held either spare bridge sections or weights to counterbalance the effects of the bridge sections being held by the boom. This accessory set is designed for the Asuka M32B1 kit. If you want to show you model deploying the Treadway Bridge Sections (sold separately) you must plan to do this prior to building the Asuka kit since modifications to the suspension must be first be accomplished to represent the heavy compression to the suspension that the bridge sections caused to the vehicle. The lockout plates (N42) were not normally installed on the suspension bogies when the vehicle had to be moved. If the bridge sections are to be left off the kit, you must decide whether to have the counterweight holding frame installed or stowed on the engine deck since the frame attaches to the hull brackets where the A-frame normally goes when the boom is stowed.
