I was also thinking that the dimensions were similar to the old 2 pin slave, but there are a few problems with that location. It would require some filler blocks to properly mount over the stamped rib, and sticking beyond the side is not a normal place to extend equipment. I am thinking it was more likely something to do with the TCCCs systems, but that is purely a guess.
The army got serious about the unauthorised mods when the Iltis came out. Some of the older jeeps had more oddball holes in them than swiss cheese, between map boards, goody boxes, and the odd stereos.
