M880 grille mounted number plates

[Milt51]

My M880 still has the grille mounted number plates which I believe are bridge weight indicators, but I haven't found any photos to show what accurate numbers might be on them. I'm trying to make this restoration as accurate as possible, any help would be appreciated.

Mine has "69" on it.

Try searching. Someone may have posted the correct numbers at some point.

Same here.

I think it's the same as an M715 or a CUCV since they are all "5/4 tons".

After looking around in the CUCV forum I think 04 is the correct bridge plate number.

4 is the number, this is defined in the -10 manual
although current Army convoy regs (so I've been told) require all vehicles in the convoy to list the #'s for the heaviest vehicle in the convoy. Hence the common "69"
