I just saw this post. I assume you mean the basic trucks? The M978 and M297 as they have it written. A note, they have mispelled the name of that truck. It's suppose to be M977 not M297. Another, the M977 is not the same as the MK48. Nor is the M978. They are totally two differently built vehicles.
Again, the MK48 is not available as a kit form. I built my using the M977 as the starting point and modified the chassis and lots of scratchbuilt parts.
If you want to built the MK48 you will have to convert one of those trucks. I suggest you use the M297 as the starting point.

OK thank you Charles I've ordered both the trucks and figured I'd just build them out of the box and then add to them with some kit bashing, etc.....When I saw these I figured they were as close to yours as I'm going to find in a kit... As you had said: Theres no others out there...Thanks for that info though about not being the same as the MK48....
