    M101A1 spare tire solutions or bracket?

    Use the spare tire carrier, plate, and wing nut set up for the bed carrier in a m37. Mounts on front of bed usually but does make it tongue heavy. GoldnEagle has some extra rims with tires I believe.

    Question about a tool

    Yes, It is a saginaw pump. The stud threads into the internal pump shaft. The round ring collar is split and fits around the edge of the pulley rim and the other part is tightened to press it off the smooth outer shaft of the pump.

    HMMWV Grote LEd lights don't fit housings
