To bad I didn't know you needed some brackets....I was in Tx. last week, the guy had all eight.
I do have a complete set with bumper available in So. Cal.

Ya...what he says.....
And....anybody can buy a deuce, ...I had one once....to big, to heavy, but they are kinda cool. Here in Ca. you need a comm. lic to operate one, and big weight fees to DMV, unless its old enough to get historical plates. Then your limited to driving it to events, and...
The M101A2 trailer would work better with the billet wheels.
Sell the A3 and get an A2.
You can make some extra money, as the A3 has a little more value.
If you use the Humvee wheels/tires....they are about 130 lbs. each with the runflat in them, and expensive when it comes time to replace...
I saw one of those in Tx. a year ago for $ 1250.
It was smooth, had inner walls, Humvee tires, tailgate had small latches, and had standard military lights.
I got a silver eagle flatbed instead for $550.
I went back there 3 months later...it was gone.
One of my Humvee's has the normal numbers on the B pillar area, and an additional Rebuild tag with same serial number on the inside of the R/H A pillar
cover panel.....it was painted over, but over spray came off easy.
That motor is the same as the M1009 6.2, except intake, oil pan, exhaust manifolds, pullies, fuel pump, water crossover, inj. pump, rpm sensor, dip stick, glo plugs, sensors in heads { RH, LH sides }.
So....basic long block is the same.
The first A3's were converts from A2's...they changed axle, added fender extensions, and changed landing leg. The later A3's have one piece fenders with more room in bed area.

Some of the Mfg. names are : Kasel Co.....Stevens....Pribbs.....Johnson.....Case-Master.
My plate was faded on my A2, but it said Kasel Company, and my A3 said: Pribbs.
If anyone decides to get an A3 for the inner fender width.....The first A3's are A2 converts....they added fender extensions, swapped axles, and swapped the landing leg with a crank-up one.....So look at them closely{ A3's }...the one that has a one piece fender that is wider in the bed is the...
If you use Gillespie paint : Post-Vietnam trucks used 30277 Camouflage Sand.
Current Trucks use 686 Tan carc substitute.
The 383 that was mentioned in earlier posts is only brown, or green.
Get an A2.... there cheaper, wheels and tires are available everywhere,
A3 tires/wheels are over twice the weight of A2's.
A2's are available at Gov. Liquidation, and come up for bid at Bowie Hooks/Texarkana base sometimes. There is 6 available at that base.
