M181 ANK MK38 "PUMA"

"What in Sam Hell is a Puma?"

The ANK MK38 is a truck in Snow*Runner I've always wanted to mess with, but the fixed bed made it pretty hard to change in any useful way. However as I have gotten more familiar with the game and how it works, I think I've found a way for us to eat or cake and have it too. By making the ANK spawn in with a "hidden" flatdeck, it allows it to be able to use other frame-add-ons without still being able to take on cargo. Of course the weak spot with this is you need to re-equip the flatdeck if you remove it, so it has a $0 cost. The truck is not able to haul cargo without the flatdeck installed. That is simply the nature of the beast required to make this mod work. There is not a full selection of add-ons, because some simply do not work with the bed in place. Some of the add-ons have some clipping, which I am well aware of, but it was all about small sacrifices to make the truck work. I know the spare wheel is "in" the mudflaps. If the clipping bugs you that much, I recommend checking out another truck, I have quite a catalog now. And to address the other question I get asked way too often, the Quasi tires have the same grip values as the Tayga tires, just with modifiers for their respective widths, and if they have studs.

Changes over the stock ANK MK38 include:

• Handbrake on all axles
• Revised drivetrain pattern (now switches between R-4WD and A-6WD)
• Realistic fuel capacity
• Heavy winch set with Auto Winch
• Revised suspension tuning
• Engine has gotten a tune up (Revised sound profile and less smoke)
• New powertrain options
• Hugely expanded wheel options including Quasimiyao Mud Tires
• Lightly modified physics
• Revised lighting front and rear
• No region / exploration lock
• Frame add-ons!
• More customization options

As always I recommend getting FOXCRF450RIDER's Off Road Trailers mod.
