The brackets that attach the troop seats to the bed are different, I can post pictures later and show them. May be other differences though I am not sure.

The brackets are very difference.

As far as if they fit different trucks, when I was searching it was indicated they would not fit, but I'm not 100% either way. I haven't seen a CUCV with troops seats up close to look since I installed my troop seats.

The supplier that I bought my troop seats from said that my set was the last set they had that was worth anything. I can't direct you anywhere else.

CUCV on the left, different(shorter over wheel well) lengths, uses pin/clip to attach. On right M880 uses stud/nut to attach.

I'm fairly certain the m880 troop seats/rack will not fit a CUCV as they are shorter where they go around the stake pockets by a little bit. I can take measurements of each assembly for a definitive answer. They are very similar though.

Thanks for all the replies!

There was a listing in Boise for a set for a 880 down in Boise. I thought if they fit I would use them in my Chevy truck just for a cover,- but --Oh well!!
At least that is not yet another project to worry with at this time.

Thanks, Jim
