Probably for the M36A2, the extended wheel base deuce.

There were some being sold that were for the LMTV, I think they are just under 13ft.

OAL for the M36 is 17' and it does take 7 bows.

a cheap way to make bows for the top is heavy 3/4 conduit and some all thread. i make them for my dump trailer all the time. dang operators keep hitting them and it only cost about 30 or 40 bucks. take the conduit and put it between the rear wheelsmark center and use the ground and hubs on the truck to bend it. then take the all thread and bend it in a 90 and slide it in both ends. kinda hillbilly but it works great and its cheap
