Good info. Following

You need a m762. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?37846-M762-trailer-with-light-tower

How much difference in overall size is there between the CUCV grille guard and the CUCV II guard? I have a suburban with a Ramsey winch bumper and was thinking of using a CUCV guard but cutting the center section out and welding the two sides back at the same angle as the bumper.

M715 with duals has been done. I've seen some pics. Listing around before. I'd bet it's easier to find m37 dual wheels than M715 lug pattern dual wheels.

Is there any reasonable priced m37 style spare tire brackets available?

What's everyone doing for a spare for your M101A1s? That is for those who aren't towing with an M37! I remember seeing years ago when a lot were being surplused that there was a lot with spare tire carriers mounted on the front outside of the bed. Are these available anywhere or do y'all have...

Post up picks of your trailer. It might help to id what was done to it.

The Classic burned pretty much to the ground so I wouldn't expect them to be reopened by April. Other recommendations I have if you haven't tried them are: The Village, it's in Denton near the park and they have good meat and veg plates; Troutmans BBQ, on Hwy 109 just south of Denton and have...

Or it could be a thoughtful forklift operator pulling them so as not to bend them!

I saw the exact same link on another website sometime back. One of the persons that commented on that post there stated that they identified the engine, iirc, as a Toyota diesel and that the Jeep logos were just glued or epoxied to the Toyota valve cover. Also, again iirc, that some of the...

Been awhile since I had originally started this thread. I was looking for this info today and ran across the list on the bottom. This is good info for folks who are new to the 880 series. Maybe this can be made into a sticky. Variants M880: Standard 4×4 pickup M881: M880 fitted with...
