troop seats strap ?

[N1265]

Hi guys,

I am looking for the strap that goes between the two troop seats just above the tail gate on a M880.

Thanks nick

Can you use one from a duece? The length is adjustable.

Nick, contact Wayne Harris at papercu@hotmail.com
He had tons of used ones for sale. They area all the same and can be adjusted for different width beds.

Thanks for the advice... I guess I can use one from a duece.

I got ahold of powerwagon parts and they wanted $50. for one plus shipping... I just cant afford that for a strap.

Try ABLinn, he posts the ones for M715s and M37s on ebay all the time for $30-$35. They are shorter than the ones for a deuce and I imagine would fit a M880 just right.

Saturn has this nice little strap listed in the M715 section for $26.50

thanks for the advice and pic. I cant imagin that the strap for the M715 would be much diffrent that the one for the M880.


However... just to be on the safe side, can any of you M715 owners tell me the distance between the two hooks on the troop seats so I can measure my M880 and compair?

Thanks Nick

You can plainly see the buckle used for adjustment on the pic from Saturn. They are all interchangable. Deuce, M1008, M880, M715 no matter!

Actually they are not. When I first finished my M715 I found a troop strap for a deuce and used it. It was too long and I had to take it apart at one end and double it over at the buckle to get it short enough to use. Once I bought my deuce I transfered it back to full lenght for a deuce and used it on that truck and bought the proper one for a M715 / M37. It is still has adjustable lenght like the one for the deuce, but is quite a bit shorter to fit better. A deuce is almost 8' eye to eye where a M715 is the same width as a pick up truck at somewhere closer 6'.

Alrighhtythen, I stand corrected! To that end I'm not sure which ones Wayne Harris has.
