Bridge plate for trailers

I'm restoring an M101 and upon removing the layers of paint on it, I found the yellow, circular weight class marking on the right hand side. I couldn't make out the number on it, but want to put it back after it's repainted. What is the standard number for the 3/4T M101 trailer? Thanks

Thanks. I checked it out and they show a '4' for the 1.5T trailer, nothing for the 3/4T. I don't have the fm for it. Anyone know what it should be?
Thanks

We are looking at stripping/painting our m101. We took photos of all the markings but did not see a bridge class number. Be interested in seeing trailer marks from others. Thanks.

My 1968 Johnson Corp M105 A2 in MERDC or NATO 4 color Woodland has a Black "4" in a black ring, equivalent to 54reo's yellow circle with black 4. I guess when they went to camouflage instead of OD they minimized the appearance of the bridge stencil, kinda like the black 8 in a black ring on my 686A Tan cargo deuce "Saddam's Nightmare". Contact Rick Larsen.... I'm sure he has the stencils you'll want....
