Where are the fording drain plugs located on the vehicle?

The fording drain plugs in the JLTV are strategically located in each of the four cab corners. Their primary purpose is to allow for effective drainage of water that may accumulate in the vehicle during fording operations. By placing the drain plugs in the cab corners, the design ensures that any water entering the cab or body can be efficiently drained away, helping to maintain the integrity of the vehicle's internal systems and ensuring the safety and comfort of the personnel inside.

This positioning is crucial for operations in wet environments, where rapid drainage can prevent water accumulation and potential damage to electrical components or electronics housed within the vehicle. The capability to quickly remove water is essential for maintaining operational readiness in diverse terrains and conditions encountered during missions.
