My M8C was hacked to crap like that too. Where did you get the NOS parts?

What's going to happen to that 5th wheel? I ask because I'm missing the spring that retains the locking lever into position. Can I have yours?

Myself + one other (often my girlfriend) lifting the "light" end can move the tub on the foor, or lift onto a low trailer. It takes 3 people to lift it back onto the jeep. Me + my girlfriend + my 58 year old uncle. It's not all that heavy. :wink:

My M52A2 that was in vietnam had Re-bar that was welded to the bumper. (which was later cut down, so now only the welded section remains) So I'm thinking it was 100% pure field mod for new drivers.
