You need a super Sherman dmd and mf ideally. I have a spare of both due to changing to Pershing sounds...
I would use a Sherman turret ring, metal turret bracing and you should be able to fit recoil and elevation, at a squeeze.
There isn’t much elevation so I probably won’t bother in my T23 from Nick.

Hi Nick,
Excellent. If you're able to part with the Super Sherman DMD and MF units, I can give them a good home. Can you PM ?
Cheers,
Chris Preston,

Do yourself a favour and remove that address and PM it to Adam.
Much safer

This is my build and you don't have to purchase a turret. It's not that difficult and my conversion is covered step by step in the threads.

Yeah, the M4's and M4 composites/hybrids would mostly have had radial engines.

The MF-03 will give you Ford V8 sounds - you might want to look around for the MF-07 from the M51 instead, as I think that one has the correct radial engine noises.
The GAA Ford V8 was in use from the M4A3 on. The israeli M51 didn't use the radial engine.

Cummins diesel is a great lump, it’s in my friends M51 Sherman. I put KV mf and dmd in my M52 model, sounds ok but a custom sound pack would be better.
