I was able to locate a contractor searching the internet from the part numbers in the TM.
All of the military contractors seem to require a minimum order, so I had to buy more than I needed. I sold what I wasn't keeping.
Here is the contractor info along with the part numbers for each lens...
Unfortunately, the shovels are no longer made here in the US, and that poses a real logistics issue because they are too long for the racks.
Union Tool, made the correct length shovel and I was fortunate to get two before I found out they closed the plant in PA, that was making them.
Check...
Is there even a source to obtain the soft top hardware? Without taking off a parts truck. I'm talking New, Old Stock surplus, or New production.
The two door pieces,
the two poles that connect along the back, and
the three cab bows.
I know Saturn Surplus has the cab bows, but I have not...
So what or better yet, who is the contractor for the current issue USGI Fire Extiguishers?
It would be nice to keep things prototypical, and if the trucks were just recently released from service as mine was, they more than likely would have been fitted with the current issue extinguisher...
Good News!
The Fasteners arrived today, and are USGI New, Old Stock. They are clean un-buggered screws which are an exact replacement for the ones I took oput of my dash panel.
Success!
Via an internet search, I found the part number at Pete Debella Jeep Parts. I called to inquire, and he said he has them. Aluminum finish, new, old stock. I ordered some and we'll see if they are what I am expecting.
He does not have the retaining washer(push on nut) though. No big deal, as...
Thanks for the link.
I just spoke with them and they have none in stock. They're trying to locate more, but it seems these are a hard commodity to find.
I have the part Numbers from the TM:

Has anyone found the actual military part number and a source for the correct post and clips?
The clips are secured to the dash wall itself, but the more important piece is the screw post used to secure the guage panel to the dash wall.
:-?
I think the new panel will give a little added guage illumination as well as the addition of a Low Air Light. I will simply wire the center panel light up to the other two guage lights and make three across. Now that we have some more bareable temperatures, an outside project can help the winter...
Train horns are a good choice. Here is a great place to buy them. Yes, these are the real deal too. Micro Precision Group | Micro Precision Group Online Store
You can find them a lot cheaper on eBay, but this is where they are manufactured. Oh, and don't foget the 3/4" valve...

I did that replacement last spring. You need to unscrew the water jacket bolts, and remove the water jackets to replace the hoses. It really is the fastest way to do it.
The gaskets were bought from Memphis Equipment, along with the hoses and clamps. When the package arrived, I just drained the...
Hi Carnac,
I want to thank you for this great service you provide to the MV Collector.
From the best I can acertain, the vehicle was assigned to the Mount Holly, NJ barracks of the NJ ANG.
I would love to have a more clear history. Thanks.
This is what I have:
1971 AM General M35A2 W/W...
I have been trying to locate the information using the search, however I am finding negative results.
Could someone tell me where I can look on a 5 Ton M816 Wrecker, to find the Chasis/ VIN number? I'm told the truck in question is titled already, but the data plate is missing, I am trying to...
Love the vice, and the front pintle. Great ideas!
also...
What is the data plate on the tunnel next to the transfer case lever? I have the PTO data plate on the side of the tunnel but haven't seen one on top. Yours has a lot more writing on it, than FWD NUETRAL REV.
