M151A2 CDN Spare Tyre Antenna Mount

[maple_leaf_eh]

Congrats and greetings from another '74 Pattern owner. I estimate there are about 2 dozen M151A2s (give or take) back on the road in Canada. So, take that scrappers!

There are a couple unique Canadian parts compared to US productions. The roll cage is squarer and has fewer connections for the CF. The radio set ups aren't much different inside, but the antenna base is different. Rob Love's offer of one from his scrap pile is worth taking.

There is a FB group for M151A2 owners. If you search look for one with Eric Booth as the admin.

A word of caution. There are a lot of historic vehicle owners who go overboard loading their rig with everything shown on someone's checklist. In my time in the service (Reserves '76 to '82), there was very little EIS kit issued for our '74s beyond a tool bag and tarp. The ANSUL extinguisher and SMG bracket were two correct additions.
