    Lot of Jeep questions

    More M880 Questions?

    That is conceivable, but the mph/kph speedo superceded the mph only one, and when the supply of MPH only ones ran out dual scale one were used. US units were large MPH and small inner kph with miles on the odometer. There could be a millions reasons for why it was changed

    More M880 Questions?

    No M880's were sold to Canada (M880 is a US designation) The Canadian Army did have 1976 model W200's with 4 speed manual transmissions. US Gov't replacement speedos had both MPH and KPH yet the odometer was in miles.
