At the time when the first Macks were delivered to the Army, they said that they were too rough for the soldiers and their delicate Cargos that they carried, including Ammo etc. When they did the changeover to the Airbags, Mack took back the complete Camel back suspensions and they were advertised for sale at the time. Apparently quit a lot of them went overseas in a single Lot. - Kav
