Don't worry about it Bruce. I totally understand. I appreciate your offering them and going through the trouble to look for them. Only reason I mentioned it here was to explain why I'm still looking for a set. I've got a couple leads now, so it looks like it's going to work out. Thanks for...

Cool, I'll drop you a line to discuss it. Thanks.

Well, the bows that Bruce lined up for me fell through (turned out he didn't have them anymore and didn't realize it. Thanks for the offer anyway Bruce.) So I'm still looking for either some complete bows, or just the corner metal pieces. Anybody got any available for me to buy?

It's cool to see pictures of the M880 when they were still "new-ish." Thanks for posting these pictures. :)

All good points guys. Thanks for giving me a nudge in the right direction. ;)

Hi guys, I have a decision I've been mulling over for a few months that I'd like all of your input on. I recently completed an engine and transmission swap on my M880- I replaced the Stock 318 and 727 auto tranny with a 440 BB with a 727 with BB bell housing. To anyone who's ever driven a...

RE: Re: M880 Cargo cover rails wanted You know, I just realized something. Apparently the front rails for the M1008 are very similar to that of the M880. In fact the front right rail I have that I thought was the one needed for the M880 is actually the correct number for the M1008. It reads...

RE: Re: M880 Cargo cover rails wanted Hi guys, I just looked up the P/N's of the pieces I need from the TM 9-2320-266-24P manual: 12255558 "RAIL,REAR,TAILGATE PART OF KIT P/N 112255550" 12255552-1 "RAIL ASSEMBLY,FRONT LEFT COVER CARGO BOX PART OF KIT P/N 12255550" DieselSmoke, I didn't...

RE: Re: M880 Cargo cover rails wanted Hi guys, thanks for the replys, I'm actually looking for one of the two rails that mount along the thin front edge of the bed, as well as the rail that mounts along the tail gate. The two front rails are parallel to the rail on the tailgate. Dieselsmoke...

Just talked to Bruce on the phone. I'm sold. Thanks to Bruce for helping me get some bows for my trailer. I'm not worried at all about him being straight up honest. You guys vouch for him, and that says volumes. I'm just really pleased that we have a community of folks here that we can trust...

$15 for each complete bow? That would include two corners, the wooded center section and two wooden upright, is this right? If so I think I would be interested (oh, and yes, I would be interested in all four bows). What condition are the wood and metal parts in? Thanks.

Hello all, just thought I'd check with you all here to see if you have a good source for where I can find the metal bow corners for my M101A1 trailer. I have enough for one complete bow, but I need 4 more sets in order to build the the other 4 bows. Any help would be appreciated.

There is a little angle bracket that comes supplied in the B/O light kit for the M880. This kit comes complete with EVERYTHING you need to install the B/O lights on an M880 (minus the big switch on the dash, you have to get that separately), including chasis and cab wiring harnesses, brackets...

Good point on the Dana 60 axles. Forgot about that. Starting in `74, full time four wheel drive was an option (part time was also still available that year if memory serves me correctly) but by `75, through at least `78 (maybe as long as `79, don't remember for sure) all W100's and W200's...

I think Saturn Surplus has them. You could also use any`75 -`78(?) front drive shaft from a Dodge W100 or W200.

If it were me, I might consider buying the receptacle that goes on the vehicle side from some place like Saturn Surplus and creating an adapter between the civilial and military wiring. Like this one: http://saturnsurplus.com/electrical/trlrplug.htm That way you don't have to butcher the...

No Problem, glad to help. Good luck finishing your truck. :)

UPS dropped off my cover today. THANK YOU, THANK YOU WILLIAM!! Aside from some signs that the covers spent a little bit of time left out side, the cover looks virtually brand new. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D Now I just need to buy the rest of the bow corner brackets...

Looks good nattieleather, you did a good job. One point for improvement you might consider, it looks like the font on the original stick is just a little bit different. Compare the lower case letter "g" to see what I mean. A subtle difference, but may nonetheless account for why some of the...

It's centered all the way at the very bottom. I'm not sure about the font size, I'll have to check. So how tall is 7 pt font? My Cad software says that 7 point is .073" tall. I'll measure the font size on the sticker tonight.
