I think I remember a support for the gun mount going in here in some pics... or maybe for a flag pole?

Which is funny, because this truck does not have the reinforcement plate.

hmm strange
It looks like it could be used to mount a flag pole for parades...I might give it a shot

Your fuel lines are moving around with the vibration of the engine. It would not be a bad idea to secure them or shield the ones that come in contact with other objects. The vibration after time will rub right through and create a leak. I have seen this happen many times with fuel lines, air lines, and brake lines. I went over my entire truck and secured all lines that were loose and any that came in contact with another line or part of the engine. I shielded them with rubber hose. Just gives me a piece of mind I guess.

all deuces and 809's have these parts whether they ever had a ring or not.

THANKS! I wont ever turn down free advice...

I will have to zip-tie them for now until I can get some rubber hose to take car e of the problem

If anyone sees anything that should be added to the to-do list please let me know...

They do not. Most deuces I have seen do not have that piece.

 

[uscgmatt]

Mine also has the mount but no reinforcement plate.

[FrankUSMC]

All of mine also have the mount by the passenger door.

I wish I had the entire gun mount setup...all it takes is money and it needs a repaint 1st

You're gonna need lotsa $$

yea telll me about it...

I have a buddy who is going to spray it (I am buying paint from rapco)
body, stencils, and wheels. Desert tan w/desert storm inverted "V" and its going to say GI Joe instead of US Army and will also have the Joe logo instead of the army star in some places. (and yes I thought of that before the movie came out)
Add bows and cargo cover and that will cover everything I Want to do to make it look pretty

Then add a winch and continue fixing leaks and squeaks and other suprises as they arise

 

[Sundance]

My M109 has it.

It is as said before part of the ring mount but I made an antenna mount out of mine.

I like it.

 

[GoHot229]

It seems also a good mount for the pipe for a single comvoy light.

Thanks Frodo.
