Dang!! I wish my cab was stainless steel. I haven't heard anything about a stainless replacement cab. That doesn't mean there isn't one, but I like to think that we are "in the know" about 939 stuff around here.

There was a cab with added rollover protection as noted here:

General Accounting Office

Quote:

The Army decided to
replace M939 cabs when they wore out with ones outfitted with a
rollover crush protection system and also to modify the accelerator
pedal resistance on the A2 variant of the M939. Both TACOM and Army
Safety Center personnel stated that installation of the reinforced
cab rollover crush protection system, while not an industry standard
or required by law, would better protect M939 occupants in the event
of a rollover.
