Overland Mark II Suspension Drawings

There was a request of Facebook for drawings of the suspension on the Overland Mark II, or as the military contract number was cites, the TC-497. These drawings are from the Phase I Overland Train Project report dated December 28, 1959.

The first drawing is the suspension.
