M101 vs M116a2

[1956_4x4]

I currently have a M101. I built some bows and bought a cover to get it set up to fit my needs. I'm currently waiting on a EUC to clear for a M116a2 that has the surge brakes, eight lug wheels and bed with the sides.

Does anyone know if the bows and cover off my M101 will fit the bed of the M116a2? If so, I plan on swapping the stuff over and selling the M101.

Also, are the eight lug wheels the same pattern as the wheels on a M1031?

Yes and yes as long as the 116 chassis has a 101 body on it. From your description, it sounds like it does. If it doesn't you could always swap bodies.

Thanks for the info. Good point on the body swap, I didn't even think about that.

Did you win the M116 that was at Lejeune last week? I did some research... and its NOT an M101 Bed as they advertised. It's a M105A2 or 3, look at the non existant fenderwells inside the bed and the 2750lb weight.
