Metal Gear Saga
M-151
Developed by Ford in 1950 the M151 is a large departure from previous jeeps, both in looks and design.
The M151 has a unitized body with a box frame. It is the same weight as an
MB/GPW even though it is a larger vehicle. It has a longer wheelbase, is wider
and is lower than an M38A1. It may very stable. But in practice, due mainly
to its primitive four wheel independent coil suspension , it tended to roll. An 'A' arm with a coil spring is used on each wheel. The M151 and the M151A1 have the pivots on the inside of the wheel. The M151A2 changed the rear A arms to pivot front to back. This greatly reduced the tendency to roll over during a high speed turn.
It features in Metal Gear Solid as the escape vehicle.
