If I remember correctly, the swivel frame was a civilian-designed add-on. Not many were produced, and none were ever adopted by the armed forces as far as I know. If you tracked one down and decided to go off-roading with it, I'd about guarantee it'd "mess with yore li'l mind!" n:)

There was an M37 in the Top Truck Challenge put on by Four Wheeler Magazine several years ago with the willock setup swapped into it, only it was hydraulicly activated. It was impressive to watch...

They showed that truck on "Trucks" several years ago-it was called "The Articulator".

I think the Army called that a Gamma Goat...
! Not the truck pictured above...just the articulated vehicle that became known as the M561.
M37s are HMMWV in my world!
