As my current project is nearing it's completion, I have opened this box and begun to draw plans for it. So far, I have no specific ideas and though there are plenty of Stryker photos on 'net, Medical version is not so well presented. Luckily I already found a walk-around for this.

I am exploring the possibility of having the front wheels turned in to add some character to this build. For this end, I need to modify the steering arm and suspension uprights. Steering arm is one piece in the kit and I've experimentally sawed one of those to five parts it's made of. I will try to dry fit it and see how it will turn out but preliminary tests seem to indicate that it's not necessarily such an simple task.

Right - suspension components have now been installed and I did achieve what I was after: turned wheels. There was some swearing and lot of fidgeting but components are now in place. Not all steering arms meet where they should but errors are visible only when vehicle is upside down so I decided to let those errors be. Education for me.

I am sorry but this project has not been updated too often here. Now it's ready and I uploaded some pics for people to enjoy (or comment). Anyways, this MEV Stryker dio is supposed to represent a military exhibition in some unnamed location, hence the scratch built plaque near the nose.
Also scratch built are tie down lines for the boxes (two unused are rolled up on the storage self next to tied down box) and turned wheels are also my modification. I intended to place covers for smoke grenade launchers as they are empty on any exhibitions but noticed this too late and it was a tad too difficult to get covers on assembled launchers so I skipped that.
